Trusted by Stanford's leading cardiologists for use in clinical trials, Instant Heart Rate is recognized as the world's best mobile heart rate measurement app. It accurately measures your pulse and heart beat zones without the need for heart rate straps, functioning similarly to pulse oximeters by detecting changes in your finger to provide precise heart beat measurements.
Key features include:

- PPG graph (similar to ECG/EKG/Cardiograph) to visualize every heart beat and BPM
- Cardio workout monitoring to optimize exercise and track progress pre- and post-workout, using heart rate as a cardiovascular measurement
- Heart rate training zones (Rest, Fat Burn, Cardio, and Peak)
- Google Fit support for heart rate and heartbeat data
- No need for heart rate or heartbeat straps
- Ability to share heart beat data
To use Instant Heart Rate effectively, place your finger on your phone's camera to measure your resting heart rate. Be mindful not to press too hard on the camera lens, as this may alter blood circulation to your fingertip. For the most accurate results, use the app daily to measure your heartbeat or pulse, tagging your heart rate after sleeping or during workouts to distinguish between resting and active heart rates.
According to the American Heart Association (AHA) and the Mayo Clinic, a normal resting heart rate ranges from 60 to 100 beats per minute (BPM). Factors such as stress, anxiety, depression, emotions, activity level, fitness level, body composition, and medication use can affect your heart rate. Understanding your heart rate is crucial for gauging heart health and cardiovascular fitness, with heart rate variability being an important measure of stress on your body.
