Tools that measure and record heart rate aka pulse.
Bands and Watches
Most bands and watches do this claiming to do it through Pulse Oximetry. I DG (talk) suspect it may be accelerometry - activity based guessing in the bad ones. This is very bad because the difference between what accelerometry would predict and what is actually happening is very important information.
Fitbit s have many studies using them and Quantified Scientist says one of their health bands is the best.
Apple made news as it's Watch found heart defects.
Miband is a cheaper option. In my DG (talk) experience newer ones are still not good at measuring HR during exercise.
Chest Strap
Garmin, Polar, Wahoo
I ~~~ have but do not use the polar H10
Ring
Only oura and mostly during rest and sleep.
