Reviews for Wahoo Fitness Blue HR Heart Rate Strap

It's somewhat hard to pair up, but once you do (using 4S here), it get's stuck on whatever reading happens to pops up and won't change with your heartbeat. Typically for my unit, a whopping 255 beats per minute. No amount of sweat, moisture, new battery, blah blah blah will make it change. I got this thing to work exactly once, don't ask me how I did or what I could do to repeat it. Pure waste of money and as other's have posted, instructions or real help are not available. Don't waste your money.

I got one of these last year to monitor my heart rate during running. It was very easy to pair and operate. I almost always use it with RunKeeper app, but also with the wahoo app. I haven't had any problems, it's been almost a year now. You do have to put some water or gel on the pads in contact with your skin for them to work properly, but I expected that. Once you start sweating you don't have to worry about this.

Have had zero issues, but only had it for 3 weeks. It was a piece of cake to set up, and switches from one type of workout to another very easily. Very motivating, but wish they had a graphical representation of progress.

the Wahoo fitness Heart Rate Strap works well there are a few steps you must do before you can pear up with your Iphone 1st you must down load the app and sign up with the fitness details.and only than the Heart rate strap will pair up.

Love the monitor but my MAJOR grievance is that nowhere in the documentation does it mention that you MUST BE WEARING IT TO PAIR IT with your phone. So, be advised.

I used the unit for about 2 weeks, and I could not get it to connect. I completed my run, and it never did connect. I replaced the battery, still no connect. I turned off my iPhone 4s and back on, and it connected immediately. Polar's app has a battery level indicator, and after 8 workouts (30 min to 4 hours), it says my new battery is at 53%.

I bought this a few months ago to help with my triathlon training. Heart rate monitoring is kind of key. While the device worked well at the beginning, it won't consistently connect with my iPhone. I've wasted hours trying to get it to connect before a run or bike ride. I've tried every online suggestion for dealing with the problem but nothing seems to work. At this point I'm ready to give up on the strap.

Yesterday it worked, today it doesn't - the Wahoo app cannot detect the sensor, no matter how much I lick at the sensors or do jumping jacks or any other of the slightly demeaning activities Wahoo tell us to do in order to beg for the thing to work. It should just work and it doesn't. The first one I bought didn't work at all. The second one has worked for A DAY and now it doesn't either, meaning another trip back to the apple store.

I purchased this item even after reading bad reviews. My unit suffer of continuing disconnects of bluetooth from day 1. I return my order an get a refund. Buy a Polar H7 if you want a quality product.

Purchased a few weeks ago when I was in the US, never worked from day one, tried everything, changed battery etc....Rubbish product
