Made an Android app that turns your live heart rate into generative music (Health Connect / any Bluetooth HR strap)

If you actually get value out of the heart-rate data on your watch, this might be your thing: I built PulseWaves (Android), an app that takes your real-time heart rate and generates music that moves with your pulse — nothing is pre-recorded, every note plays live. Good for focus, winding down, or sleep.

Two ways in: it reads live HR from Health Connect (so any watch or app that syncs your heart rate there works — Wear OS, Galaxy Watch via Samsung Health→Health Connect, etc.), or you can pair a Bluetooth heart-rate strap directly. There are four live visualizers and a built-in Pomodoro that changes the music between work and break.

I'm mostly after real feedback: does your watch's HR actually make it into Health Connect with low latency, or is a BLE strap smoother for you? Free to start (Focus + Relax) — creator here, I'll drop the link in a comment.

(It's a wellness/entertainment app, not a medical product.)

I built an Android app that generates music live from your heart rate (Rust DSP + Compose)

I've been working solo for months on PulseWaves: it reads your heart rate from your wearable (Health Connect / Samsung / Huawei / any Bluetooth HR monitor) and generates binaural music in real time that shifts with your pulse — nothing is pre-recorded, every note plays live, 4 live visualizers, and a built-in Pomodoro that manages focus/break cycles for you. Modes: Focus, Relax, Sleep, Power Nap, and AutoBiosonic (your heartbeat drives the music).

Free to start (Focus + Relax). I'd love honest feedback — especially on audio latency and wearable compatibility.

Looking For Beta testers

Hey r/androidappstesters,

I've been building PulseWaves for the past few months and it just hit closed beta on Google Play. Looking for 12 people willing to install it and use it for at least 2 weeks (Google's requirement before public release).

**What it does:**

It reads your real-time BPM and HRV from Health Connect, Samsung Health, Huawei Health, or any Bluetooth heart rate monitor, and generates music that literally adapts to your body — beat by beat. Not a playlist. Not an algorithm guessing your mood. Your actual heartbeat, translated into sound.

**Modes:**

- Focus — biosonic frequency entrainment for deep work

- Relax — adaptive ambient textures

- Sleep — delta-wave music

- Power Nap — precision 20-min cycle

- AutoBiosonic (Premium+) — AI that reads your HRV/ECG in real time

**9 synthesized instruments** (Pad, Bell, Kalimba, Rhodes, Marimba, Strings, Crystal, Tibetan Bowl, Flauta) — all generated in real time, no samples.

**What I need from testers:**

- Install it, use it a few times, and leave a rating on the Play Store

- Optional: drop any feedback here or DM me

Drop a comment or DM if you're in. Thanks!
