Polar 10 not measuring HR

Anna Akerman on

Linked to bluetooth on apple watch but not measuring HR.

The app is very slow and laggy

NMcM2419 on

I’ve been using this for the four years. The app is good as a general fitness monitor. That being said, it needs vast improvement: 1. The app is very slow and lags immensely 2. There is no way to ensure the calories measured is true. It would be good to have a calibration setting on the hardware 3. The batteries drain incredibly quickly on their chest belt 4. The Bluetooth pairing is incredibly painful to use when the battery is low or replaced. 5. The UI could be vastly improved. It hasn’t changed or be improved on since I’ve been using it.

Generally good but with a couple of issues

Moolybap on

It’s a nice simple app that integrates with Polar Flow. It can sometimes inexplicably fail to connect to devices which sends me crazy. The main issue is hanging on web requests. Ooh that drives me crazy. Tasks that should happen in the background like syncing make the UI hang.

How to use with your Apple Watch

I Viva la daN I on

I got this to help with working in HR zones when running, through my Apple Watch. I have the H10 chest strap. It took about 10 runs, but I’m pretty sure I’ve figured out how to work it as it wouldn’t show my heart rate, or which zone I was running in ‘live’ and I had to keep looking at my iPhone to get it. The way I’ve made it work it: - Share data with Apple Health, but not heart rate (so untick this) - Start it on the Beat app from your watch as ‘Run’ - Open the app on your iPhone - Now your watch will give you your live heart rate and also point to which zone you’re working in, which is either the first or second face

Awful

Rich the stitch on

Instructions poor too much stays on the screen

Terrible Apple Watch Experience

nathanmbusby on

I have been using Polar Beat for a number of years now and on the whole the app performs well, however the user experience on the Apple Watch is terrible. It’s confusing as to why Polar offer an Apple Watch app when clearly they have no interest in making it work, as it’s not been updated and fixed for years. The majority of the time the data does not show on the Apple Watch itself, meaning you have to keep viewing your phone; and the Polar Beat app does not remain displayed on your watch, so you have to keep opening the app. Simply put, it’s a waste of time for Apple Watch users and I suspect it is designed this way to try and encourage Polar HR monitor users to buy Polar watches. Would be nice to see Polar acknowledge the issues with the Apple Watch app and fix them in an update or just do away with it altogether if they aren’t that serious about.

Not very good

Mike in Maida Vale on

I use it with the heart rate sensor from Polar. With the latest update, I can’t pause the run, stop it or end it on the watch. It often doesn’t synchronise the heart rate on the watch with that of the phone. One can’t keep the face showing the polar app. After a few seconds, it reverts to the Home Screen. So to see the status I have to go to the home screen and open the app This is very inconvenient when running. I am very disappointed as such elementary functions are not available from a company that specializes in this

1st static bike ride

Improved my understanding and performance instantly.

Pairing issues

Anonymous person 66 on

I have spent more time and effort replacing batteries and trying to pair this not fit for purpose item than actually training!
