+# Bluetooth Heart Rate Monitor - Lite
+
+When this app is installed it overrides Bangle.js's built in heart rate monitor with an external Bluetooth one.
+
+The [`bthrm` app](https://banglejs.com/apps/?id=bthrm) is a much more sophisticated version of this app, however is uses a lot more
+RAM so may not be suitable for Bangle.js 1.
+
+HRM is requested it searches on Bluetooth for a heart rate monitor, connects, and sends data back using the `Bangle.on('HRM'` event as if it came from the on board monitor.
+
+This means it's compatible with many Bangle.js apps including:
+
+* [Heart Rate Widget](https://banglejs.com/apps/#widhrt)
+* [Heart Rate Recorder](https://banglejs.com/apps/#heart)
+
+It it NOT COMPATIBLE with [Heart Rate Monitor](https://banglejs.com/apps/#hrm)
+as that requires live sensor data (rather than just BPM readings).
+
+## Usage
+
+Just install the app, then install an app that uses the heart rate monitor.
+
+Once an app requests Heart Rate `bthrmlite` will automatically try and connect to the first bluetooth
+heart rate monitor it finds.
+
+**To disable this and return to normal HRM, uninstall the app**
+
+## Compatible Heart Rate Monitors
+
+This works with any heart rate monitor providing the standard Bluetooth
+Heart Rate Service (`180D`) and characteristic (`2A37`).
+
+So far it has been tested on:
+
+* CooSpo Bluetooth Heart Rate Monitor
+
+## Internals
+
+This replaces `Bangle.setHRMPower` with its own implementation.
