Health-awareness tools
Health-awareness tools for pulse, HRV and brain health
These third-party tools can help you notice and track some health signals. They are for awareness only and do not replace a professional assessment.
Pulse: HeartBeat
HeartBeat is an Android app for measuring your pulse. Read its description and limits before relying on a reading.
HeartBeat on F-Droid ↗Heart-rate variability: Kubios HRV
Heart-rate variability (HRV) is the variation in time between heartbeats. An app reading on its own cannot diagnose stress, disease or overall health.
Kubios HRV on Google Play ↗Brain health: Think Brain Health Hub
An educational brain-health check-in from Alzheimer's Research UK. It raises awareness and is not a diagnosis.
Think Brain Health Hub ↗Use them with care
Consumer apps vary in accuracy and may not suit everyone. Do not use them to delay medical care or to make decisions about medicines. If a reading worries you, or you have symptoms, speak to a qualified healthcare professional.
