TapRate is a free iOS application developed by Eyejot Inc. in the Lifestyle category, specifically in Health & Fitness. This program allows users to measure and calculate heart and respiratory rates using their iPhone or Apple Watch. The process is simple - users need to feel a radial pulse rate or observe a respiratory rate, and then tap.

By recording a few samples, TapRate displays the heart and respiratory rates, enabling users to practice and improve accuracy. Healthcare professionals such as nurses and EMTs can compare the rates obtained through TapRate with traditional techniques or diagnostic tools. With TapRate, obtaining heart and respiratory rates becomes a matter of seconds, significantly faster than manual methods that require waiting for 15 or 30 seconds.
