[Feature Request] Heart Rate over Time

Open preeefix opened this issue 3 years ago • 3 comments

Great app, I've started using it for my recordings, and after some fiddling it works pretty well.

As I've been playing, I've noticed that there's not really any context for the current reading being shown on screen. I've been playing GTFO, a co-op horror game, and there's definitely some peaks, but not having some historical context (last ~5 readings?) means that when my heart rate spikes, it's just an update.

Adding an option for a graph next to the number could be one way to show some context for what's going on.

From an implementation perspective, it could probably be done on client for the web app side, meaning no updates to either the backend or the watch app to implement it either.

Hey there, thanks for your request, that sounds like a great idea I haven't thought of! I'm definitely going to implement this, though I'm unsure if a graph would look very clean. I thought maybe a high/low counter over the last x readings is a lot more comprehendable and less cluttered than a full graph when viewed on livestreams. But definitely let me hear your thoughts! A compromise would be to have this high/low system on every design as an option, but have a design that is specifically a graph, if you choose to.

Personal preference for the look, but maybe something small like the current third option that changes a bit every update: image

Been watching and playing through the options available now and it's definitely close to what I've been looking for! Good idea on breaking out the "histogram" as an option, it allows for a cleaner look as well.

An opportunity for expansion would be to create a longer widget (1920px wide?) to give a more historical approach, though definitely under the lowest priority at this point.
