But, if you want to see HR on your phone you could just use some other activity recording app such as Strava, Wahoo, Polar Beat etc.

try Polar Beat intead of Flow, similar functionality but much better visuals during the activity recording screen especially the HR zone logic looks much more intuitive

HRM Pro(+) can store data and upload it directly (without watch), because it can be connected to Garmin Connect App directly.
