User Reviews

Polar Beat on iOS is praised for real-time data and Apple Health integration when it pairs, but suffers from persistent H10 pairing failures, unreliable HR readings, and Bluetooth instability. Many reviews cite long or failed pairings, crashes, and incomplete workout data. UI gaps (no lock-screen widgets, limited zone customization) and concerns about monetization and slow support also recur. A few users report good value and accuracy when it works, but reliability and support remain major issues.
Pros
  • Real-time workout data and Apple Health integration when the sensor connects
  • Easy setup and Apple Health linkage praised by some users
  • Noted high HR accuracy when connected for training data
  • Good value for money according to several reviews
Cons
  • Unreliable pairing and frequent disconnects with the H10 heart rate monitor
  • Inaccurate or missing heart rate readings and distances (HR disappearing)
  • Frequent Bluetooth/sync issues, long pairing times and unpairs/crashes
  • UI/feature gaps: lack of live lock-screen metrics, no zone customization, and overall complexity
  • Privacy/monetization concerns and slow customer support

Polar flow allows trimming of sessions for some strange reason this is still not a function in beat. More work on this app would help it go further.

But the app can’t find it. Shouldn’t be that hard. I mean really? Says right there, iPhone settings, Bluetooth, polar connected to iPhone. App just has a spinning wheel looking for it. Like I said, shouldn’t be that hard
