Hey everyone, just wanted to share something with everyone on here that suffers from POTS like I do. If you have an iPhone (I have an iPhone 6 plus, so Im not sure if this app is available for others with iPhone 5s and below) but its worth a shot. Ive been trying to find a nice fitness watch again to track my heart rate, but havent found anything yet that I like. I decided to look in the App Store on my phone for a Heart Rate Monitor app, and to my surprise, of course they have one! Its called Instant Heart Rate, but all you have to do is type Heart Rate Monitor in the search bar and it should come up. They have a Free version as well. This app is definitely accurate, even more accurate than any of the heart rate monitor/fitness watchs that Ive bought in the past. It works by your phones camera, you put your finger over the camera and a light comes on, and it looks for color changes under the skin to detect your heart rate (or something like that lol). Anyway, the reason why this app is so great and convenient for those of us who suffer from POTS and need to monitor their heart rate, is because it even has a Sitting to Standing feature, that will track your Heart Rate from the sitting position to the standing position. This app is a life saver, and I hope this helps some of yous!
