For those of you importing heart rate data from your devices, did you can track this over time? Read on to find out how.
Supported Devices
Currently, this feature is only available for users who have Apple Health, Health Connect, Oura or Garmin connected to their Cronometer account. We aim to add support for more partners in the near future.
Enable Time Series Data
Navigate to More > Connect Apps & Devices, and select your supported device. In the device settings, make sure ‘Import full heart rate time series’ is toggled on. For users connected to Apple Health, this step is not necessary.
Viewing Your Heart Rate Over Time
Once a heart rate entry is imported, click on the entry from your Diary screen. You will know that time series data exists if it has a > icon on it.
Once you tap on the heart rate or heart rate variability diary entry, it will bring up a chart, allowing you to view your heart rate data over time.
This will let you take a look at when your heart rate spikes or dips throughout the day, helping to identify stressors. By upgrading to Gold, you can also use Custom Charts to plot this data against your exercise, any nutrient or any other biometric to help pin point the cause.
More Time Series Data
If you like being able to look at your heart rate over time in Cronometer, we also support this functionality for heart rate variability, body temperature, blood glucose, respiratory rate and blood oxygen saturation, depending on your device.
