Reviews
After years of using arm-based sensors from many brands, I struggled with poor fit, light leakage, and artifacts. As a petite Asian woman, I tried placements and strap tensions. Some mornings I repeated a reading over 15 times, then had to abandon that day's baseline. I wondered: Does establishing a reliable HRV baseline have to be this difficult? The Optimal HRV Monitor changed my view completely: HRV measurement can be effortless while still producing clean, reliable data.
I love the ease of use and the built-in tools to help improve my HRV. Well done.
I"ve been using the tracker for 2 months now and encountered no issues. The reader connected quickly to my iPhone once charged. It's a simple, put on, 3 clicks on the app (including connecting the app to the reader), then I get my daily HRV readings. The heart rate variability biofeedback training and self-compassion training work well and they don't appear intimidating. All training modules are just simple 2 clicks and then you're training.
