What data is collected using the monitor? I already have a great heartrate monitor but doesn't work with phones. Anything useful other than bpm?

It lets me know what bpm after I have finished walking.I just bought another phone and I didn't realize it checks your heart rate, so I haven't been using it lately. I hope this answers your question.

Just bpm. Other data and information is calculated by the phone after the bpm
766519
just bpm to my knowledge, in Run Keeper it shows a graph of bpm - so you can track target heart rate

It is a heart rate monitor so the data collected is bpm. Using along with the strava App shows GPS ubication, calories, velocity, altitude

Datasets include heart rate in bpm, as well as R-R intervals (precise time between heartbeats). The latter is important for HRV (heart rate variability) measurements, like Polar's "Fitness test" or various other HRV fitness/stress apps. Few bluetooth HRM straps actually support it. This one does.

It is supposed to have heartbeat and 02 but I could not get either to work on two separated units. One or both of those were not real-time, I *think* both were not real time. There were *supposed* to be images on the display that you pressed but I could not get the display to work and all the original and replacement unit ever did for me was count steps.

Sorry for my delay in responding, but the operation of the Sport Tracker Heart Rate Monitor is great. The sync with the Android system is automatic. I have a Samsung S3 and a Nokia N8 (Symbian). I have used frequently in both systems without issue.

No heart rate monitor is required. It will read your heart rate while on your wrist. It also has a readout for calories burned, steps taken & mileage.

Yes. No. Yes. No. Or I guess but what exactly "continuous heart monitoring" mean? Think about it. I mean really think about it.. Unlike most smart watches employ this heart heart tracking feature but not advertised as "continuous..." Not trying to be blunt but I couldve asked better questions than that.

Hi Poly, I am still getting it up and running but pretty certain that it in itself only measures HR. But why it does that is handy for us who love using our smart phones for strava etc is it will translate all the ANT+ from my garmin tools (Cadence/speed sensor, Power Metre, foot pod) into a bluetooth 4.0 signal for your smart phone to read. Some of these are more or less effective on different Apps, Viii own app will receive and show all this information but for instance Strava won't show reading from the power meter. As i said its still new to me but overall Im happy with it. I looked at DCRainmakers review of the product before buying it and he goes very in depth if you want more info. Cheers

I use the app called digifit. I paid for all the upgrades...I think it was $8 and I don't know if I even use all those capabilities ! But that keeps track of heart rate and calories burned, I also have myfitnesstracker app and I can connect my calories burned into my daily food diary. It's really awesome all he stuff you can do. I love the Jarv!

There is a free app you can download that will track info. I use a Garmin 910 so I don't need the phone info. But I did use the app to set my heart rate zones.

Hi Dwight,Thanks for your question. You can integrate with a Garmin heart rate monitor. Laurie

I have never used it to count calories actually I used it as a timer, a watch and a heart beat monitor. it did that well when it was working

As mention in my review, I use "MapMyFitness" apps. It contains calories and heart rate monitoring.

Most of my workouts are on stationary or road bikes and in the gym. Without the heart rate monitor, these workouts don't really count. It's best to get the monitor, unless you are moving a lot on non-stationary objects.

I used the Bluetooth to connect for heart rate in cyclometer. It worked fine in the past. I just upgraded to cyclemeter elite a few minutes ago and I can't seem to get my heart rate to show up. I'll keep working on it and let u know.

The sports tracker app tracks calories burned. The heart monitor just links to the app to track your heart rate during your activity

Sorry, I don't know the answer to that question. I can tell you that this watch doesn't come with a heart rate monitor. I bought 2 of them. I'm not sure where Amazon got that picture from showing the watch with a monitor cord.
