No extra hardware
The Sensor Is Already in Your Ears
AirPods Pro sit in your ear canal — unaffected by wrist motion, grip pressure, or cold skin. No chest strap to soak through, no extra device to charge. Just the buds you already train with.
Your AirPods Pro Track Your Heart Rate.
AirHRM Sends It To Your Equipment.
You already train with AirPods Pro in. AirHRM reads their heart rate and broadcasts it as a standard Bluetooth sensor — the same signal a chest strap sends, readable by any equipment that accepts one.

Yes — Your Equipment Can Read Your AirPods Pro Heart Rate
AirPods Pro 3 already measure your heart rate. AirHRM rebroadcasts it from your iPhone as a standard Bluetooth sensor — the same signal a chest strap sends. Your Peloton, Concept2, gym machine, or bike computer pairs with it and reads live BPM. Setup takes about a minute.
Simple by Design
Pair it once. After that, it's the same three moves before every session.
1
AirPods Pro In, Tap Start
Open AirHRM on your iPhone and tap Start. That's what makes your phone visible as a heart rate sensor.
2
Pair Your Equipment
On your rower, bike, treadmill, elliptical, or bike computer — search for a Bluetooth heart rate sensor and select AirHRM.
3
Train, Then Tap Stop
Your heart rate streams in the background. Lock your phone, pocket it, and go.
Heart Rate That Stays Out of Your Way
For anyone who trains with AirPods Pro and equipment that reads heart rate through Bluetooth.
Glance-able
Heart Rate on Your Lock Screen
Your live heart rate stays visible on the Lock Screen and Dynamic Island throughout your session. No need to unlock.
Works in the Background
Lock your phone or switch apps — AirHRM keeps broadcasting in the background.
No Duplicate Tracking
No analytics, no zones. Your equipment handles that. AirHRM just bridges heart rate.
Works with Your Gear
Concept2 PM5, Peloton, NordicTrack and other iFit machines, gym cardio consoles, treadmills, ellipticals, indoor training apps on a second device, and cycling computers — if it pairs to a standard Bluetooth heart rate sensor, it works. iPhones behave a bit differently than chest straps; check the list if you're unsure.
Pick a brand above or type a device name — e.g. "Garmin Edge 840" or "Wahoo".
Your Device Isn't Listed?
If your device supports BLE heart rate sensors, just give it a try — the 7-day free trial is risk-free. Follow the general pairing guide to get started. Either way, if you find out it works or doesn't work, let me know and I'll add it to the list:

Clever app that solves a problem
★★★★★
I have the Garmin Edge 130 and I followed the setup video and it works seamlessly. Really glad I don't have to wear an additional HR monitor to get this data into Garmin.

Frequently Asked Questions
What devices work with AirHRM?
Any equipment that pairs to a standard Bluetooth Low Energy heart rate sensor: Peloton Bike and Tread, Concept2 PM5, NordicTrack and iFit machines, treadmills and ellipticals with BLE consoles, many commercial gym machines, Zwift or other training apps on a second device, Garmin Edge, Wahoo ELEMNT, and Hammerhead Karoo — model and firmware vary.
Not everything is compatible — check yours here before subscribing.
Do I need to keep the iPhone app open?
No. After your equipment connects, you can lock the phone or switch apps. AirHRM keeps broadcasting in the background until you tap Stop.
Is there a free trial?
Yes — seven days free. You are not charged if you cancel before the trial ends.
What do I need to use AirHRM?
An iPhone running iOS 26 or later, AirPods Pro that share heart rate with Apple Health, and the AirHRM app.
Does it work with Garmin Connect at the same time?
Most Garmin Edge units only allow one Bluetooth connection to your iPhone for phone features. You often choose between AirHRM or Garmin Connect live features during a session.
The Garmin guide has the workaround — it becomes routine quickly.
