Beat Watcher: Stress Monitor for iPhone

Beat Watcher: Stress Monitor

Beat Watcher is a simple and intuitive app designed to help you monitor and manage your stress levels. With this app, you can set a BPM threshold and receive alerts when your heart rate goes above or below that threshold.

The app seamlessly integrates with the Health app, allowing you to easily access and monitor your heart rate data. It provides a range of features to help you listen to your body, including breathing exercises, meditation, and workout tracking.

Notably, Beat Watcher has been found to be beneficial for individuals with Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS) and Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS) in monitoring and managing their symptoms.

Using the Digital Crown on your Apple Watch, you can easily set the desired BPM threshold. When your heart rate exceeds or falls below this threshold, the app will notify you with distinct sounds and vibrations.

For continuous monitoring, you can enable Background Mode, which provides haptic and audible feedback even when you're not actively using the app. Additionally, you can choose to enable Persistent Alerts for constant feedback while your heart rate remains above the set threshold.

Beat Watcher also supports Bluetooth chest strap heart rate monitors, such as the Polar H10, for improved battery life on your Apple Watch. This allows you to continue receiving audio feedback and view your heart rate on the Apple Watch screen, even when you're not wearing it.

Please note that Background Mode cannot be used simultaneously with another workout app.

Compatible with watchOS 8 or newer, Beat Watcher requires an Apple Watch Series 3 or newer.
