Samsung smartphones (and maybe others) have had oximeters built-in
for
years. The measurement app in Samsung Health is part of the "stress"
test.

finds and tries it ... (thanks)

55 bpm, 96%?

55 bpm

you need to go to hospital

tim

Right now, mine is 54bpm and 96%.

Just tested mine again, 54 / 92%


if by bpm you mean your pulse rate, it is in the dangerously low range


Dont be daft. Its the low range of €śnormal€ť.


It's below normal

In general your resting
pulse rate is related to your fitness. The fitter you are the lower your
resting pulse rate.


and what do you think is the likely average fitness of the people here?
