Anyone using the Iphone as a HRM? I've had a Polar for years and thinking about upgrading or using my phone instead. Anyone got any experience of them?
Which HRM module you thinking of using?
Polar have an app and a new Bluetooth HRM/cheststrap to allow you to do this with your iPhone
Been using a topeak panobike for a couple of months with the wahoo app.
Relatively cheap, works well and uses very little extra battery.
Not sure at the moment on which to use but always been a fan of Polar but not sure if there are others out there which work better.
Just don't get the Garmin one according the DC Rainmaker:
