Beat Poet: Live Heart Rate

Your pulse, written in ink. The big digits swell on every heartbeat with a real lub-dub, at your live heart rate, and each beat sends a thin ring rolling out to the edge of the screen. The ink changes color as your heart rate climbs through five zones, from a cool resting tone to a hot peak, and the zone is named under the beating readout.

FEATURES
• Beats at your real heart rate: a strong swell and a softer echo, like a heartbeat
• Pulse rings roll out to the bezel on every beat; a bold double ring marks each new minute
• Five heart-rate zones color the time: resting, light, moderate, hard, peak
• Large, high-contrast time with the heart rate, zone, steps and battery
• Steps and battery sit on a card, so the rings pass behind them and never cross the numbers
• Without a reading the face turns a neutral gray and says so, instead of guessing

DATA SHOWN
• Heart rate (BPM) and the current zone
• Steps (with a thousands separator)

SETTINGS

BATTERY
The beat only animates while you are looking at the watch. The always-on screen is completely still and true black: the time as a thin outline in the zone color, with the heart rate and data dimmed, lighting about 6% of the pixels. Choose Motion: Still for a static face.

The zone colors are a display aid based on fixed heart-rate bands, not medical advice.

COMPATIBILITY
Works on Wear OS 5+ watches (Pixel Watch, Galaxy Watch …). Built with the Watch Face Format. It is a watch face only, with no phone app. Heart rate needs your watch's heart-rate sensor and permission.

HOW TO CUSTOMIZE
Long-press the watch face, then tap Customize (or use your phone's watch app) to pick the ink colors, background, rings, time font and motion.

PRIVACY
This watch face collects no data. Heart rate, steps and battery come from your watch and stay on it.
