SenseView BLE Sensor Heart Rate Service

SenseView BLE Sensor Heart Rate Service serves as a valuable extension for monitoring heart rate data from compatible Bluetooth 4.0 GATT-based sensors, operating exclusively with Bluetooth Low Energy 4.0 compatible equipment. Designed to integrate seamlessly with the main SenseView app, SenseView BLE Sensor Heart Rate Service cannot function independently. To utilize this service effectively, ensure that the SenseView app is installed on your Android device running version 4.3 or higher.

Enhanced Connectivity for Heart Rate Sensors

SenseView BLE Sensor Heart Rate Service extends the capabilities of the SenseView app by supporting various heart rate monitors, including popular models like Zephyr HxM BT Smart and Polar H7. This service notably enhances your ability to track heart rate data reliably, provided you have Bluetooth Low Energy 4.0 compatible devices. Some sensors are verified to work seamlessly, whereas others are included for potential compatibility, subject to further user feedback and testing. The app works best with sensors like Alatech Technology CS010, BeetsBlu BBHRM1, and UnderArmour Armour39, as these have been tested for compatibility.

Technical Considerations and User Note

While SenseView BLE Sensor Heart Rate Service provides extensive functionality, users might experience delays of up to two minutes when connecting or reconnecting devices, occasionally requiring a phone restart. This is attributed to known limitations in the Bluetooth implementation of Android 4.3 and 4.4, which are beyond the scope of this service. Future updates from Android, such as version 4.5, might address these issues.

For optimal use, download and install the SenseView app, ensuring all system requirements are met. SenseView BLE Sensor Heart Rate Service enhances the health and fitness monitoring experience, providing detailed heart rate data and supporting a variety of devices in conjunction with SenseView for an integrated tracking solution.
