Heart and sleep readings in Hamdam Health

The heart and sleep readings are Hamdam Plus. The coaches themselves are free.

For Plus members, Hamdam reads your heart and sleep signals from Apple Health against your own usual of the last 30 days: heart rate variability, resting, walking and sleeping heart rate and how far it dips at night, breathing rate, sleep stages and regularity, heart rate recovery and cardio fitness.

It needs about two weeks of readings to learn your usual, and says so until then. Cardio fitness and heart rate recovery learn from four readings in sixty days.

Step by step

  1. Allow Apple Health access when Hamdam asks. The permission text names every signal Hamdam reads.

  2. Open Garden, then Hamdam Health, then the Mind coach. It reads your body as calm, a little strained or strained.

  3. Open the Sleep coach. It describes last night in plain words with one suggestion.

    The Sleep coach under Hamdam Health: Did you wake feeling rested?, tonight's bedtime and wind-down, and Last night, An unsettled night, described in plain words with one suggestion.

Worth knowing

  • Today shows at most one line of this.
  • This is wellness, not diagnosis. Hamdam does not read ECG or rhythm data, and a change in breathing, sleep disturbances or wrist temperature points you to Apple Health's own alerts or a doctor.
  • Everything Hamdam keeps stays on your devices.
