Unless I'm missing something, isn't this something most smartwatches can do? Since I got a garmin instinct I mostly just use that to send heart rate data to my Bolt. It's not quite as accurate as a proper chest hrm, but the convenience tends to outweigh that.

I have an old fitbit blaze (not a v smart watch), which can't but it is something of an antique now. research is throwing up a 'HR broadcast' function which Garmin and Whoop seem to do, not sure if theyre just the only people using that term though
I don't really want to spend hundreds on something fancy when I only really want one feature, but this is where its just me being picky

Thanks, those look pretty good. Does the app mean it's not a case of recording the activity on the watch, but sending that HR data in separately?
I think what I'd really like to find is a fitness tracker that can keep track of my overall calorie burn etc outside of riding, but also function as an alternative to my HR strap when riding with my Wahoo. The only one may be Whoop...
