Before buying the Vantage M3, I imported some sports sessions into the Polar app.
Is it normal that we do not see all the sections and that the activity information is not complete?
Will connecting the Vantage M3 to the application unbridle and inform imported sports activities that have not been recorded with the watch?
Activities come from Concept2 / Wahoo / Suunto
I have the Apple Watch Series 11 and it pairs to my H9 monitor but gives we wildly inaccurate reading. Drops 20-30bpm below where my heart really is and won’t return to a normal reading. It’s a brand new strap only been used 6 times. Four times were with the Polar Beat app and it worked fine, but when it’s paired to my AW11 it doesn’t work the same.
I wear cotton shirts when I exercise, no jewelry, and my airpods are paired to my phone not my watch.
I saw another individual in this subreddit having a similar issue with his AW ultra, but there was no resolve in the thread. Anyone have a similar issue or know of a solution?
Edit- I see the AutoMod’s post about the connectivity issues and i’ve gone through all of that, none of those recommendations have fixed my issue.
I'm having a heck of a time getting my recently purchases Polar Unite watch to connect with the also recently purchased H9 chest strap.
I am able to pair the H9 with the phone-based Polar Flow app and can see heart rate, etc...
The main reason I purchased these was to monitor my HR in real time (glancing at the watch) to adjust my level of effort to obtain/stay in that session's training Zone.
Polar customer support has not been able to get my watch and H9 paired so...I'm at a loss as to what to do (other than return everything and try other options).
Open to any idea and suggestion to get the watch and the strap paired and in advance, thanks!
Hello all, this is my first post here so I hope this is appropriate. Last year, I bought the H10 heart rate chest strap monitor to track my training because I really want to increase my endurance. For reference, my primary sports are running, Muay Thai, and bouldering.
Anyway, I tried getting into zone 2 running using Polar, but quite honestly it’s been a pain because of how quickly my heart jumps to Z3 and how long each run takes as a result. I’ve seen, of course, that many people have said that the heart rate zones on the app are calculated in a rudimentary fashion, but I was wondering what everyone else has used that they found to work well? Also what volume of Z2 work did you have to do before you noticed gains in your overall energy use? Does working out under Z2 (long walks) help with this as well? If anyone has any advice on a training programme that worked well for them I would appreciate it very much.
I’ve attached three of my workouts (1x Muay Thai, recorded as kickboxing, 1x bouldering, 1x z2 run) in case it helps. For further reference I’m 158cm/5’2” and weigh 50kg/110lbs with a resting heart rate of around 55bpm.
My HR monitor (HR10) started behaving erratically. it is 9 months old. I sent it in for repair. They are charging me for a new strap and new battery, even though it is covered under warranty. I’m really confused. I sent them the receipt. How are they charging me $79? What kind of warranty is that?
My Polar H10 worked great for the first month but now it will only stay connected if I keep my iPhone unlocked and the app up on the screen. The second I lock my iPhone it disconnects until I open it back up, and does a gap like pic related. Anyone know a fix for this?
Went on a 1-hr run today. Zone 2 with a 10-min block (45:00-55:00) at race pace. Around minute 32 I started getting sudden spikes in my HR. It would shoot up to 170 and then just like that drop to 150.
After a few times I removed the H10 so my Vantage M2 would take the HR readings.
Could it be the strap? It doesn’t have any visible signs of wear and tear, but it’s a couple years old and I’ve been using it more lately.
For a few days I‘ve been having problems with the synchronisation, now it just doesn‘t show my heartrate anymore. Can’t start a training or a test.
I contacted the support and they said it could be a software problem they‘re having and it affects more devices. Does anybody have the same problems?
I‘m really pissed off it‘s basically useless right now and I don’t know when they will fix it, want my money back fr
What changes if I select BPM, %of max or % of reserve while training. It's just been on BPM until now. Can't find anything on the polar website that talks about this
I used the polar h10 HR monitor for the first time in the pool today save with HR sensor workout. It doesn’t seem like it really recorded my heart rate. Now it’s not connecting to the Bluetooth at all. Had this happened to anyone. How do I fix it? I thought HR monito was water resistant.
Dear,
I have more than 2000 workouts in polar flow. I want to export them to .fit files and keep the data as original as possible. Because I am also riding with powermeter.
I had tried syncmytracks on android but that changed the data way too much off.
I know that I can export in .JSON and use a converter to .FIt but I reads on internet that there is still a risk of the workout data to be changed.
In the past were there scripts to export them from polar flow. But does anyone know if there are still working scripts on this moment? Polar has blocked a lot of them.
Does anyone know where you can get a cheap band for the Polar Verity, Polar charge extortionate amount of money (£30 + expensive shipping).
I brought it 4 years ago and primarily used it for swimming so was a bit disappointed that the band snapped :( The device is working fine but looking into getting into cycling, so would like to use it again but not for £30+
At that price point i'd be tempted to just go coros :(
Hey, I'm looking at buying an H10 for heart rate tracking only for chronic illness, not for exercise. My question is, how does the tracking look like in an app? Will it show a graph of my heart rate throughout the day? Could someone show me what it looks like?
Just remove the original 22 mm strap of the time piece and mount the loop. Works with different 22 mm nato/velcro straps.
I super glued velcro strap part few times already, this time the metal part of band disassembled during washing machine cycle. Daily user for 4 years, sadly the replacement is pretty expensive. Not mentioning regular HR measurements drop during some runs. Not sure I will go again with Polar for next HR armband monitor. Edit: People are right, for so long no issues, I just felt angry, cause can’t repair it easily no more 😂
Like the title says, i Will buy a polar vantage m3. Any recommendations? What to do first?
Hi there is a very small piece of my watch Missing.Itis the ring that holds the pin from the wrist band. Is there an easy way to fix this? The first photo shows the defect one, the other 1.How it should look. Polar ignite 3.
Is it about adjusting the tolerance (light blue dots)? If yes then where do I do that? This app could use a drastic redesign and simplification...
My god. The verity sense was the ideal HRM. Worked perfectly every time with al my devices. For some reason I decided to update the firmware and now my win11 PC constantly keeps having trouble pairing with it.
The pc detects it but asks to pair the device each time as if it's a new device. For some reason it doesn't seem to remember it. And what's more it constantly drops connection after like 2 secs of being recognised so you have to try and agree to pair it super fast or it won't work.
Any ideas for fixes? Any solution would be appreciated as right now I'm so frustrated this device is close to going in the bin!!
I straight out do not know why I decided to update a perfectly working device...!
I have struggled with undiagnosed/unmedicated ADHD my whole life (35 years). Because of this, I have always struggled with drinking, having at least 1 drink a night from age 13 on.
I got the Polar Pacer a few months back, and immediately became fascinated by the sleep tracking. I found that any night I consumed even just 1 drink, my sleep was compromised. But one nights I didn’t drink, my sleep was at the very least “good”.
To summarize, I have been consuming a maxi of 2 drinks per week (some weeks none) for the last month all thanks to this watch
