Keeping tabs on your pulse is an important tool for tracking your overall fitness. Heart Rate Touch measures your pulse simply and accurately while respecting your privacy. No logins, in-app purchases or other up-sell gimmicks. In an era of increased erosion of privacy, Heart Rate Touch breaks the trend by keeping you in control of your information. Written entirely in Swift, an innovative new programming language from Apple, it features leading edge technology:
● Quick and simple to use: Cover the both the flash and the camera with your finger. Apply a steady, light pressure and remain still. A great way to do this is by resting the phone on your finger and let the weight of the phone do the work.
● Advanced algorithm produces highly accurate result: Heart Rate Touch is an optical heart rate monitors that use light to track your blood. By illuminating your capillaries in your finger-tip with an light source (Flash), a sensor (Camera) adjacent to the light measures the frequency (Heart Rate) at which your blood pumps, from the “redness” of the images it captures. Results have a theoretical accuracy to well within 1 beat per minute.
● Privacy and Sharing: The app does not collect any user information that is communicated back to a server. The measurements remain private on your device. Results are available to be exported in text format and also to Apple's Health app at your discretion.
Quickly label your measurements with tags such as “After Workout” or “Resting.” The app provides a good set of presets, and also lets you make your own. This version also includes performance improvements and minor bug fixes.
