I'm looking for a heart rate monitor that can work flawlessly with my iPhone. I'm interested in the Digifit and want to hear from actual users. Any other suggestions are greatly appreciated!

    I've been using Digifit since I started walking/ running in March this year. I started with MyTrek armband (does not work, the heart readings are always wrong). I purchased the Garmin strap needed for the Digifit and the ANT+. These two works great. I compared the heart rate reading to a different reader and both were reading the same heart rate. I also bought the foot pod (also Garmin) and it's even better. Now I can track my heart rate, pace, distance. Accurate, btw.

    I was talking to a serious runner/cyclist friend about these and he says the phone is to big and a pain to operate as a HRM. He keeps his phone in his back pocket for emergencies but says it would be useless to look at while exercising.

    Despite liking shiny toys I had to agree and stick with the Polar.
