Health Management
Measuring your heart rate
Continuous heart rate monitoring is enabled by default, which allows a heart rate curve to be
displayed. If this feature is disabled, only the result of a single measurement can be
displayed.
To guarantee a more accurate heart rate measurement, wear the device correctly and
ensure the strap is fastened. Make sure that your device is secure on your wrist during
workouts. Ensure that the monitoring module is in direct contact with your skin without
any obstructions.
Individual heart rate measurement
1
Open the Huawei Health app, enter the device details screen, go to Health monitoring >
Continuous heart rate monitoring, and disable Continuous heart rate monitoring.
2
Access the app list and select Heart rate to measure your heart rate.
This measurement may also be affected by some external factors such as low blood
perfusion, tattoos, a lot of hair on your arm, a dark complexion, lowering or moving your
arm, or low ambient temperatures.
Continuous heart rate monitoring
Open the Huawei Health app, enter the device details screen, go to Health monitoring >
Continuous heart rate monitoring, and enable Continuous heart rate monitoring. Once
this feature is enabled, your device can measure your real-time heart rate.
You can set MONITORING MODE to either Smart or Real-time.
•
Smart mode: Monitors your heart rate based on your training load.
•
Real-time mode: The heart rate measurement will be performed once a second regardless
of the training load.
Using Real-time mode will increase the power consumption of your device, while using
Smart mode will adjust the heart rate measurement interval based on the activity
intensity and help to save power.
Resting heart rate measurement
Resting heart rate refers to your heartbeats per minute measured when you are awake, still,
and calm. It is an important indicator of your heart health. The best time to measure your
resting heart rate is immediately after you wake up in the morning.
Open the Huawei Health app, enter the device details screen, go to Health monitoring >
Continuous heart rate monitoring, and enable Continuous heart rate monitoring. The
device will then measure your resting heart rate automatically.
