Heart Rate Variability (HRV) measurements recorded by your Apple Watch can provide insight into the stress your body is experiencing. By using HRV Tracker to track short-term readings and long-term trends, you can see how factors such as daily workload, workouts, and sleep affect your body's readiness, recovery, and stress. Simply put, the higher your HRV, the better.
***Requires Apple Watch with watchOS 10 or later***
HRV Tracker for Watch integrates with the Health app and uses data stored in the Health app. To ensure your Apple Watch can record HRV measurements, open the Health app on your iPhone to check for existing data: Health app > Browse > Heart > Heart Rate Variability. In addition to automatic recordings, you can also use the Mindfulness app on your Apple Watch to capture new HRV data. Start a Breathe session, and once it ends, a new HRV measurement will appear in HRV Tracker.

***Privacy***
Your privacy is really important to us — we do not collect any data from this app.
***How Is It Measured?***
HRV Tracker uses heart rate variability measurements calculated by detecting the variation between individual heartbeats. Your Apple Watch automatically measures HRV in the background and stores it in HealthKit. HealthKit uses SDNN (Standard Deviation of NN intervals), which reflects the standard deviation of time between normal heartbeats (measured in milliseconds).
Please note that many of the features mentioned above are available only to subscribers.

-Targets that fit you: suggested ranges come from your own history, and a live preview shows how your goal would have played out over the past weeks before you commit.
-A plan from your data: see which habits, sleep patterns and training loads have actually moved your HRV, and what they are typically worth.
-Follow your progress with a streak calendar, progress chart and a projection of where your average is heading.
-Understand what is affecting each goal right now: today's HRV, sleep and activity compared against your own norms. No generic advice, only what your data supports.
-Finished goals get a full recap: your result, best stretch, and what helped or hurt along the way, collected on a new Completed shelf.
-Optional notification when a goal wraps up.
-Works with daily or sleep HRV, in SDNN or rMSSD.
