Unusually high or low heart rates and irregular heart rhythms (known as arrhythmias) could be signs of a serious condition.2 But many people don’t recognise the symptoms, so the underlying causes often go undiagnosed. Notifications in the HeartRate app will alert you to these irregularities so you can take action and consult your doctor.
