About Heart Rate Monitor: PodPulse
Live heart rate from your AirPods Pro 3 and Powerbeats Pro 2 PodPulse is a heart rate monitor for iPhone that reads live BPM directly from the heart rate sensors in AirPods Pro (3rd generation and later) and Powerbeats Pro 2 — no Apple Watch or chest strap required. Put in your earbuds, start a session, and your real-time pulse appears on screen, on your Lock Screen, and in the Dynamic Island. Whether you want objective insight into how your hr behaves through the day, or you're doing yoga, lifting, running, cycling, or HIIT, App is the simplest way to read your BPM from ear — without buying an Apple Watch or a chest strap. Have an Apple Watch? App includes a companion watchOS app so you can start, stop, and monitor your hr right from your wrist — and your iPhone mirrors the live BPM in real time. FEATURES • Real-time heart rate (BPM) streamed from AAP 3 or PBP 2 • Five training zones — Easy, Fat Burn, Aerobic, Threshold, Peak — color-coded as you train • Personalized zones using your age (max HR) and HealthKit resting hr (Karvonen method) • Live Activity on the Lock Screen so you can glance at BPM mid-workout • Dynamic Island support — compact, expanded, and minimal layouts • Apple Watch companion — start and stop sessions from the wrist, with live BPM, zone, and 5-minute sparkline on the watch face • Two-way sync — start on iPhone, see it on Apple Watch; start on Watch, see it on iPhone • Smart routing — when an Apple Watch is paired and reachable, app lets the Watch host the workout for the most reliable signal • Session history — every workout is saved in app with min, average, max BPM chart • Source detection — clearly shows when readings come from headphones, or Apple Watch • Clean, distraction-free interface built natively in SwiftUI • Writes workout sessions to Apple Health • Works fully on iPhone — no Apple Watch, no chest strap, no extra hardware HOW IT WORKS Put in your headpones and tap Start. Your live BPM and training zone appear right away — on screen, on your Lock Screen, and in the Dynamic Island. When you're done, tap Stop. Have an Apple Watch? Start or stop from your wrist or your iPhone — your live hr stays in sync on both, so you can glance at whichever is closer. WHO IT'S FOR PodPulse is built for anyone who wants to see their pulse clearly and quickly: • Anyone tracking recovery, stress, sleep, or how their body responds to daily activity • Runners, cyclists, and gym-goers who want zone training without extra wearables • People doing low-impact training (yoga, pilates, walking) where a chest strap is overkill • People who want objective information to bring along to doctor appointments — alongside the data already collected by Apple Health • Apple Watch owners who want a focused, AirPods- and Powerbeats-aware app on the wrist REQUIREMENTS • iPhone with iOS 26 or later • Supported earpuds with heart rate sensor • HealthKit permission • Apple Watch with watchOS 11 or later — optional, for wrist-based control and monitoring PRIVACY Your data stays on your device and in Apple Health. We don't collect, transmit, or sell your health data. PodPulse is a wellness app — not a medical device, and not a substitute for professional medical care.
