Apple Watch provides lots of useful data on your heart rate. It offers your average for each day overall, your resting average, walking average, and more. Read on for how to check your heart rate on Apple Watch.
Apple Watch keeps track of your heart rate throughout the day and can let you know what the range was during workouts, sessions with the Breathe app, your resting average and more.
