Pulsoid

📖 What is Pulsoid?

A widget service that shows your heart rate from a smartwatch or heart-rate sensor on your stream screen in real time. Just connect the Pulsoid app to a supported device and add it to OBS or Streamlabs as a browser source, and you can show viewers the tension of a horror game, an endurance stream, or physical changes during a workout stream. Since you can try it on the free plan, it's an easy addition even if you just want to layer in a bit of extra flair. The widget's look can be adjusted to match your stream layout, so you can add it to a segment without redesigning your existing assets.

💡 When to Use It

Easy to use when you want to show a spike in heart rate at a scary moment in a horror game, or turn physical strain into part of the show for an endurance stream or fitness segment. Even in chatting streams or ASMR, pairing it with a tense segment or a punishment game gives viewers something to track on screen and a hook for reactions.

🚀 How to Use

1. Step 1: On the Pulsoid official site, check which heart-rate sensors and smartwatches are supported, what the free plan and paid features include, and what widget types are available for OBS.
2. Step 2: Install the Pulsoid app on your phone, pair your heart-rate device over Bluetooth, and set it up so your heart-rate data flows to your Pulsoid account.
3. Step 3: In the Pulsoid widget screen, choose your display design, color, size, and animation, then get the browser source URL for your stream.
4. Step 4: Add the browser source to OBS or Streamlabs, position it so it doesn't overlap your game screen or stream layout, and confirm the numbers update in a test stream.
