FAQ
Frequently asked questions.
Quick answers about how the app works, what's free, and what syncs where.
How accurate is measuring heart rate with a phone camera?
Camera-based readings use the same optical principle (photoplethysmography) as fingertip pulse oximeters and are generally reliable for resting measurements when you hold still. For continuous readings during intense exercise, a Bluetooth chest belt — which Pulser also supports — is more accurate. Pulser is not a medical device.
Can Pulser measure blood pressure with the camera?
No — phone cameras cannot measure blood pressure. Pulser logs readings you take with a real blood pressure cuff and charts them over time alongside heart-rate data.
Is Pulser free?
Yes, the download is free with camera measurements and Apple Health sync included. Optional plans (monthly, annual, family, lifetime) are listed on the App Store page.
