Health Mate app
Steel HR connects to the Health Mate application,

You can even invite your friends to a step challenge and
share milestones to your social networks.
Health Mate is compatible with more than 150 fitness
and health applications to help you manage all aspects
of your well-being.

3. Follow your
heart rate

14
Your heart rate is a good indicator of your overall
cardiovascular fitness, and Steel HR measures it at regular
intervals, day and night, to give you round-the-clock
insights.
Heart rate throughout the day
By default, Steel HR automatically measures your
heartbeat every 10 minutes, so you can see how it
changes throughout the day.
The results in the app allow you to follow your heart rate
over several days or even weeks—but you can also see a
snapshot at any time on the watch by pressing the
button.
Heart rate during a workout session
You can also measure your heart rate continuously
during a workout session. In this case, a measurement is
taken every second. The continuous heartbeat
measurement mode also includes a timer, which shows
exactly how long your workout session lasted.
To launch a workout session on your Steel HR, press the
button for a few seconds, select the sport you are doing,
and get started!

15
When the workout session is over, you can evaluate your
performance in the Health Mate app recap, which shows
duration, calories burned, and the amount of time in
each heart rate zone: peak, intense, moderate, and light.
You can also view your heart-rate graph, which shows
your heart rate for the entire session.
Heart rate during sleep
Steel HR tracks your
heart rate during sleep
by showing its
progression throughout
the night.
If you do not want to
track your sleep, just
remove your Steel HR
before going to bed.

4. Activity tracking

1824
Steel HR is a complete activity tracker that can
automatically recognize activities including walking,
running, and swimming.
Steel HR can also detect more than 30 additional
activities, including tennis, basketball, and dance. If you
participate in any sport that isn’t walking, running, or
swimming, the app will ask you to confirm the sport so
you can assign it manually. Steel HR then learns to
automatically detect these activities based on your
movements. You can also get continuous heart rate
tracking for more than 30 sports but selection your
favorites via the button, and there’s more on how to use
this functionality below.
For more information about your activities, including the
exact number of steps, distance traveled, or calories
burned, simply press the button on the right side of your
watch. The information will display sequentially right on
the watch screen.
To discover more options, simply connect to the Health
Mate app, where you can easily view your history and
progress at any time.
