Since its first generation, the Apple Watch has a optical heart sensor on your back.

It is used to obtain information about your heartbeat for functions such as tracking physical exercises, as well as being used in breathing and reflection sessions on the Atenção Plena app (Mindfulness) and when you are sleeping with the clock.

Despite having advanced from 2015 to now, many people face difficulties in obtaining an accurate reading — such as those with tattoos on their wrists, for example.

With that in mind, Apple allows you to connect and use an external heartbeat sensor. See the details! ❤️

How to connect an external heart sensor to your Apple Watch

First of all, the sensor must be compatible with Bluetooth. Then put it into pairing mode; This may vary depending on the manufacturer — if in doubt, read the accessory manual.

On the Apple Watch, open Settings, tap “Bluetooth” and the name of the sensor, which will appear in the list of found devices. If necessary, enter the four or six-digit PIN to confirm pairing.

If you are having connection problems, go back to the Bluetooth section in Settings, tap the “i” next to the sensor and “Forget”. Then, turn Bluetooth off and on again and make the connection.
