NOTE: Pulsoid doesn't recommend purchasing this device for streaming. Some models are not compatible or require a third-party paid integration.

A lot of people requested Xiaomi MiBands support to be able to add a real-time heart rate on stream. Note, MiBand has a lower heart rate measurement accuracy and it may degrade the experience. We recommend investing in your streaming setup and purchasing a heart rate monitor from the list of heart rate monitors for streaming.

Xiaomi Mi Band 3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10 can be used as a continuous heart rate monitor and share info with external apps, therefore it might be used with Pulsoid, but we do not recommend purchasing it for steaming cause it might not work properly.
