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?

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.
