Instant Heart Rate offers a range of features to enhance your heart health monitoring:

• Accurate measurement of heartbeat, BPM, and pulse zone

• Cardio workout monitoring to optimize exercise and track progress

To use Instant Heart Rate effectively, place your finger on your phone’s camera to measure your resting heart rate. Be mindful not to press too hard on the camera lens, as it may affect blood circulation to your fingertip. For accurate results, use the app daily, especially after sleeping or during workouts, to distinguish between resting and workout heart rates.

According to the American Heart Association (AHA) and the Mayo Clinic, a normal resting heart rate ranges from 60 to 100 beats per minute (BPM). Various factors, including stress, anxiety, depression, emotions, activity level, fitness level, body composition, and medication use, can influence your heart rate. Monitoring your heart rate is a crucial heart-health gauge and cardiovascular metric, with heart rate variability indicating stress levels on your body.
