available in the default widget loop.
Your current heart rate in beats per minute (bpm). The widget also
displays a graph of your heart rate for the last four hours,
highlighting your highest and lowest heart rate.
Your current stress level. The device measures your heart rate
variability while you are inactive to estimate your stress level. A
lower number indicates a lower stress level.
Your current Body Battery energy level. The device calculates your
current energy reserves based on sleep, stress, and activity data. A
higher number indicates a higher energy reserve.

the device may damage the product and will void the warranty.
The device has wrist-based heart rate enabled for swim

accessory. If both wrist-based
heart rate and chest heart rate data are available, your device

information about wrist-based heart rate.
