Thanks for reviewing, remember this is an entertainment only app. Shirt static and movement could cause noise and false readings.

I am happy with the stats that the app supplies. Great job! I am a new user so I'm still learning the app. Is it possible to collect steps, etc while using HRV or is it an either/or. Trying to figure out how to get running mileage, cycling, etc Mine is a CIQ 1 920XT. Thinking of getting a 245 for CIQ 3.

Thanks for reviewing, try using the Dozen Walk or DozenRun with Heart Monitor Datafield with the Garmin builtin Run or Walk app. You will get the same heart information plus steps and all types of other activity related information. If you have a question feel free to contact me using the contact developer link (include your email so I can reply).

Happy with this so far, still learning how to use it..I bought the watch & now this App due to having Long QT Syndrome & a SCA...I'm thinking in investing in a chest hrm....I know this App is for general use but it may help monitor any unusual heart rates if the event my heart stops again..But I do have an ICD that hopefully will have any information needed on it too..ty

Thanks for reviewing, there is a list of HRMs on my site. (https://www.fbbbrown.com/garmin-connect-iq/help-faq/hrm-requirements/). Warning: this is not a medical grade device or software.

I have the Garmin Vivoactive HR watch, it’s listed as compatible, any thoughts on why I don’t get any HRV data on my graphs after recording an activity. I’m reviewing this App as 5 stars assuming I can figure out how to view the data ; )

Hi Matt thanks for the review. An HRM is needed for the CIQ lower Than version 3.0: VAHR and FR735 and others Are CIQ 2.4. Garmin added The optical support to the CIQ 3.0+ devices, and the optical support is not backwards compatible. Brian

How do i look back over a history of readings for the last month? are there graphs or tables that aggregate them? Where do i find them?

Developer Reply

Thanks for reviewing! For CIQ 2.0 watches, the history is shown on the watch and in Connect Graphs section. This is not history Graph is not available on CIQ 1.0 devices.

Can it be used to track HRV during sleep? What about the battery consumption in this case?

Developer Reply
June 6, 2020, fbbbrown

Thanks for reviewing, yes will work perfectly for HRV long durations sessions. Typical battery burn rate is between 4-7% per hour depending on CIQ version and Watch model. A Fenix 6x will be around 4% and a VivoActive 4s will be around 7%. This is due to battery sizes only.

I wanted to check my HRV on a regular basis without the hassle of a cheststrap and this tool is doing a great job and it gives a ton of more information, there is tons of info's in there and I still pick apart what I might want to look further, its just great to have the option but back to HRV , just to be sure it's correct I have run parallel tests with a chest strap and it's spot on, so now I run this every morning at rest for a few minutes and get reliable data

Pricing must be a joke. It isn't a one time fee but an annual payment of 3 usd. Could have bought onetime license but definitely not any recurring fees for an app this simple.

Developer Reply

Sorry you feel that way, you must not have seen the graphs and data that this app gives. This compares to EliteHRV and Kubios HRV Standard, and those apps do not have heart monitoring abilities or cannot use a built-in optical sensor as HeartMonitor+HRV. BTW, EliteHRV is a monthly subscription and is 32 times more expensive. Kubois is an annual subscription and is "128" times more expensive. 32 and 128 are not typos.

This app is not user friendly and does not pick up my heartbeat. I have no clue what is wrong. Easy to add to watch but very difficult to understand how it works. The directions read like a foreign language and all it says on my Garmin watch face is NO HR.

Developer Reply
May 25, 2020, fbbbrown

Peggy, sorry your having an issue. The No HR, means the app is not receiving a heart rate interval. This is likely due your watch is not a Version CIQ 3.0. If your watch is an older model (less than 3.0), an external HRM is needed. If you do not know what CIQ version your watch is contact me, include your email address or i cannot respond.

I have no idea how to interpret the information the watch has given me, or where to find out. I have done the test which gives me an average SDNN of 99.29ms and a HRV history plot of 83.98 average. Do I need to be wearing my watch all the time to get more accurate results or is it purely when I click on the test? Appreciate if someone could point me in the right direction?

Thanks for reviewing, I give general information on my website, due to the medical implications I do not give interpretations. this information is available on the internet.

Looks like it provides good data, but instructions are all over the place. It seems like I am supposed to disable my HRM strap every time I need to do a measurement? *That isn't going to happen, and will just cause me to not want to use the app*... I haven't been doing this so far, and readings seem to be OK, so I don't know what issues this is actually causing.
