Polar Beat: Running & Fitness
authentic ratingA companion app for Polar heart rate monitors that works when a stable connection is established. Bluetooth connectivity is unreliable, there is no Live Activities support on the lock screen, and the sports list was unexpectedly cut in recent updates.

About the rating
Reviews are technically specific — they name specific models (H10, Polar Sense), specific bugs (losing a minute when the date changes at midnight, no Live Activities), and compare with previous versions.
Strengths
What users love
- With a stable connection it delivers accurate real-time heart rate zone data better than Apple Watch.
Weak spots
What users hate
- No Live Activities — to see your heart rate during a workout you have to unlock the phone every time.
Who it is for
Owners of Polar chest heart rate monitors willing to tolerate unreliable Bluetooth
