Polar Beat: Running & Fitness

The app only occasionally updates data shared with Apples Health app. Seems random. Needs fixing.

I bought a polar monitor last year and it's been great. Today I found out that my Polar account has been locked because they want to use my data for anything they want. I can't use a product I paid for because you got greedy? Disgusting. I'm no longer a customer.

Shame I can’t get it to pair with my H10 monitor. Pairs with everything else no drama.

I have found a Polar Beat app to be in accurate. I have the latest chest strap and the synchronisation between the two is not good

App will not pair with polar heart rate sensor even though the heartbeat sensor will pair with any other app easily!!!

I did my first couple of runs without an account and after signing in all of those runs are now gone. So make sure you sign in before using the best app. Additionally, it takes forever to login once you’ve entered your details. I closed the app and reopened it and this solved the problem but overall poor experience so far. Last complaint is it doesn’t give you per km splits after your run like Strava. In run it’s great and when paired with polar heat monitor is awesome. Not sure about elevation data. If you pay for Strava I’d use that though.

Everyday it requires pairing and takes about 30 minutes despite wearing and moistening electrodes of the belt. I have stopped using it.

Good app and tracker, having some issues connecting the H10, Once sorted will be perfect to track HR on trainer and Concept rower. Easier than watch. Looks good

App frequently does not record my route while out cycling. This means no distance and no speed data. Very frustrating. Apple iPhone 8 with latest iOS at time of posting.

The polar bear app has been a major hit to the Wairarapa College year 10 sports academy. It’s been a great way to track our personal fitness and mental health.
