Benefits of syncing your Polar

Syncing your Polar watch with Runnify will help you get the most out of your training plan. Connecting your Polar watch will allow you to:

  • Visualize your completed workouts in Runnify, with key data such as pace, heart rate, distance and duration
  • Evaluate your progress in the training plan, even though you can't receive the sessions directly on your watch
  • Keep control of your plan from one place, connecting what you do with what you have to do

How can I train with Polar and Runnify?

Since Runnify cannot send workouts directly to your Polar watch, you have two options to follow your plan:

Option 1: Train without configuring it in Polar

  • Check your Runnify workout before going out to run
  • Start your Polar watch as you usually do (by pressing the 'Play' button)
  • Perform the indicated workout
  • When finished, save your workout and Polar will automatically send it to Runnify
  • You'll be able to see your result within the Runnify app

Option 2: Manually configure the workout in Polar

  • Review your session in Runnify and create it manually within the Polar app (Polar Flow)
  • This way, you'll be able to follow your workout from the watch with alerts and indications
  • When saving the workout, it will also sync with Runnify automatically
  • It's ideal if you prefer to follow the exact workout step by step from your wrist

These options allow you to take advantage of your Polar watch within your Runnify plan, maintaining tracking, personalization and analysis of your progress, even though the integration isn't complete. Polar remains an excellent tool for monitoring your daily performance and seeing how you progress in your training.
