HRM Heart Rate Monitor

I just bought a Wahoo ELEMNT Bolt + Favero pedals and realized that there was no way to add heart rate to the mix, which I had previously tracked in Strava on my Apple Watch. I found this app, was skeptical, but decided to gave it a try. It was no easier or harder to pair to the Wahoo Bolt than were the pedals. I expected it to quickly empty my 2+ year old watch’s battery or the phone or both. But after a 26 mile ride it had only used 14% on the watch and I had good heart rate stats. I’ll need to make sure the watch and phone batteries are topped up before riding, but I was pleasantly surprised. I’ll probably buy a strap-on HR monitor in the future for 70+ mile rides, but for now this app delivers on its promises for $5/year. That’s pretty good value IMO.

Followed instruction on app and video to tey to connect to a brand new Wahoo Roam. Nothing worked

The app isn’t too expensive and works well for syncing heart rate to my Garmin.

I could not get the Apple Watch to record my heart rate via the HRM App even after giving it access via the Apple Watch Health App. Without Apple Watch the iPhone and Elemnt bike computer would not connect either. The instructions and trouble shooting was weak and not helpful. Very frustrating.

After following instructions and enabling all permissions, I was able to get it added as a sensor, but all I get is ‘n/a’ after wearing the watch and starting a ride for 10 minutes. Can you help out?

Connects to my Garmin the first time you set it up but then won’t again till I delete and redo it again. Just couldn’t ever get it to work for a ride.

I don’t want this running always on the Apple Watch, just when riding my bicycle.

I walked through the steps in your video and can not get my HR to appear on my Garmin 1040. Please help!

The heart symbol on the connected devices screen was alternately brighter and dimmer, (a beating heart?) which I assume meant it was receiving a signal. However, no heart rate showed up on the data screens. I was disappointed that it didn’t work and I canceled the free trial.

Really wanted this to work, seems like a good concept. But won’t even get past the Bluetooth sync with the HRM app on my Apple Watch, says it can’t find my device three inches away. Bluetooth fully enabled and all other apps work. This just isn’t ready for prime time
