Name: HR Pill: Heart Rate on Your Phone
Author: dkej

Shows your workout heart rate in the HR Pill app on your Android phone, as a small floating pill over videos, maps and other apps. No heart rate broadcast needed.

How it works:
  • Add the HR Pill field to a data screen of an activity (e.g. Cardio, Indoor Bike, Run).
  • Start the activity: the watch sends heart rate, workout time and your heart rate zones to HR Pill once a second through Garmin Connect.
  • The field itself only shows the link state: the HR Pill icon in colour while the phone receives, grey while waiting. It fits even the smallest field slot.

Requirements:
  • The free HR Pill app on an Android phone (Google Play), with "Garmin watch" turned on in Settings.
  • Garmin Connect on the same phone, paired with the watch. iPhone is not supported.

Privacy: heart rate travels only from the watch to your phone through Garmin Connect. Nothing is stored on the watch or sent to any server.
