Synheart Wear #

Unified wearable SDK for Flutter — Stream HR, HRV, steps, calories, and distance from Apple Watch, Fitbit, Garmin, Whoop, and Samsung devices with a single, standardized API.

✨ Features #

🚀 Quick Start #

Installation #

dependencies:
  synheart_wear: ^0.2.1

flutter pub get

Basic Usage #

import 'dart:io';
import 'package:flutter/widgets.dart';
import 'package:synheart_wear/synheart_wear.dart';

void main() async {
  WidgetsFlutterBinding.ensureInitialized();

  // Initialize SDK
  final adapters = <DeviceAdapter>{
    DeviceAdapter.appleHealthKit, // Uses Health Connect on Android
  };

  final synheart = SynheartWear(
    config: SynheartWearConfig.withAdapters(adapters),
  );

  // Request permissions & initialize
  await synheart.requestPermissions(
    permissions: {
      PermissionType.heartRate,
      PermissionType.steps,
      PermissionType.calories,
    },
    reason: 'This app needs access to your health data.',
  );

  await synheart.initialize();

  // Read metrics
  final metrics = await synheart.readMetrics();
  print('HR: ${metrics.getMetric(MetricType.hr)} bpm');
  print('Steps: ${metrics.getMetric(MetricType.steps)}');
}

Real-Time Streaming #

// Stream heart rate every 5 seconds
synheart.streamHR(interval: Duration(seconds: 5))
  .listen((metrics) {
    final hr = metrics.getMetric(MetricType.hr);
    if (hr != null) print('Current HR: $hr bpm');
  });

// Stream HRV in 5-second windows
synheart.streamHRV(windowSize: Duration(seconds: 5))
  .listen((metrics) {
    final hrv = metrics.getMetric(MetricType.hrvRmssd);
    if (hrv != null) print('HRV RMSSD: $hrv ms');
  });

📊 Data Schema #

All data follows the Synheart Data Schema v1.0:

{
  "timestamp": "2025-10-20T18:30:00Z",
  "device_id": "applewatch_1234",
  "source": "apple_healthkit",
  "metrics": {
    "hr": 72,
    "hrv_rmssd": 45,
    "hrv_sdnn": 62,
    "steps": 1045,
    "calories": 120.4,
    "distance": 2.5
  },
  "meta": {
    "battery": 0.82,
    "firmware_version": "10.1",
    "synced": true
  }
}

Access in code:

final metrics = await synheart.readMetrics();
print(metrics.getMetric(MetricType.hr));        // 72
print(metrics.getMetric(MetricType.steps));     // 1045
print(metrics.getMetric(MetricType.distance));  // 2.5
print(metrics.batteryLevel);                     // 0.82
