A heart rate variability (HRV) biofeedback app is a digital tool that monitors heart rate patterns and provides real-time feedback to improve autonomic nervous system balance. It helps users regulate breathing and stress responses by visualizing physiological data related to heart rate variability. The app is designed to enhance relaxation, emotional regulation, and overall cardiovascular resilience through guided exercises and feedback.
The primary platforms for HRV biofeedback apps are iOS, Android, Windows, and other platforms. iOS is Apple's secure and high-performance mobile operating system that enables seamless integration with devices and sensors for accurate health and HRV biofeedback tracking. These apps are distributed through channels such as app stores, direct sales, and third-party platforms. They are used for applications including healthcare, sports and fitness, stress management, research, and more, and serve end-users such as individuals, hospitals, clinics, research institutes, corporate wellness programs, and other users.
Note that the outlook for this market is being affected by rapid changes in trade relations and tariffs globally. The report will be updated prior to delivery to reflect the latest status, including revised forecasts and quantified impact analysis. The report's Recommendations and Conclusions sections will be updated to give strategies for entities dealing with the fast-moving international environment.
The sudden escalation of U.S. tariffs and the consequent trade frictions in spring 2025 are severely impacting the healthcare sector, particularly in the supply of critical medical devices, diagnostic equipment, and pharmaceuticals. Hospitals and healthcare providers are facing higher costs for imported surgical instruments, imaging equipment, and consumables such as syringes and catheters, many of which have limited domestic alternatives. These increased costs are straining healthcare budgets, leading some providers to delay equipment upgrades or pass on expenses to patients. Additionally, tariffs on raw materials and components are disrupting the production of essential drugs and devices, causing supply chain bottlenecks. In response, the industry is diversifying sourcing strategies, boosting local manufacturing where possible, and advocating for tariff exemptions on life-saving medical products.
The heart rate variability biofeedback app market research report is one of a series of new reports from The Business Research Company that provides heart rate variability biofeedback app market statistics, including heart rate variability biofeedback app industry global market size, regional shares, competitors with the heart rate variability biofeedback app market share, heart rate variability biofeedback app market segments, market trends, and opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the heart rate variability biofeedback app industry. This heart rate variability biofeedback app market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenario of the industry.
The heart rate variability biofeedback app market size has grown exponentially in recent years. It will grow from $0.97 billion in 2024 to $1.18 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 21.9%. The growth during the historic period can be attributed to the rising prevalence of stress-related disorders, increasing awareness of mental health, growth of wearable technology, adoption of fitness trackers and smartwatches, and greater healthcare focus on preventive care.
The heart rate variability biofeedback app market size is expected to see exponential growth in the next few years. It will grow to $2.57 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 21.5%. The growth during the forecast period can be attributed to government investments in health technology, increasing adoption of wearable biosensors, expanding applications in sports and fitness, rising corporate wellness programs, and growing use of HRV biofeedback for emotional regulation. Key trends in the forecast period include personalized health and wellness monitoring, real-time physiological data feedback, integration with holistic health management platforms, advancements in AI and machine learning, and developments in mobile health applications.
The rising prevalence of stress-related disorders is expected to drive the growth of the heart rate variability (HRV) biofeedback app market. Stress-related disorders are mental health conditions marked by persistent anxiety, depression, or psychological distress that significantly affect daily functioning and overall well-being. Their prevalence is increasing due to factors such as high work pressure, long hours, tight deadlines, and elevated expectations, which contribute to chronic stress impacting mental and physical health. HRV biofeedback apps help manage stress-related disorders by offering real-time monitoring, guided breathing exercises, personalized wellness programs, and actionable insights that enable users to regulate the autonomic nervous system, reduce physiological stress responses, enhance emotional resilience, and improve overall mental and physical health. For example, in May 2024, the American Psychological Association reported that 43% of adults in the U.S. felt more anxious than the previous year, up from 37% in 2023 and 32% in 2022, with major stress sources including the economy (77%), the 2024 U.S. election (73%), and gun violence (69%). The rising prevalence of stress-related disorders is therefore driving market growth.
Key companies in the HRV biofeedback app market are developing solutions such as real-time stress monitoring to improve mental well-being and optimize physiological resilience. Real-time stress monitoring continuously tracks physiological signals, including heart rate variability, to detect stress levels as they occur, allowing users to respond immediately with relaxation techniques. For instance, in May 2025, Cenli AS, a Norway-based technology company, launched Cenli, a home-based biofeedback system that monitors heart rate variability, fingertip temperature, and muscle tension in real time. The system provides instant feedback through a redesigned app, enabling guided breathing and relaxation techniques to manage stress and improve nervous system balance. Its user-friendly interface and enhanced sensor accuracy allow individuals to track physiological responses over time, identify stress patterns, and adopt personalized recovery strategies. Designed for daily use without medical supervision, the product makes advanced biofeedback accessible to a broader audience, supporting improved resilience, mental well-being, and overall health.
In September 2025, Happitech B.V., a Netherlands-based medical technology company, partnered with Momentum Multiply (Pty) Ltd. to launch a smartphone-based stress monitoring solution for medical aid members. The partnership leverages Happitech's medically certified HRV technology to help users track and manage stress through real-time insights and personalized wellbeing tips, promoting better mental and physical health. Momentum Multiply (Pty) Ltd. is a South Africa-based wellness and rewards company specializing in programs and digital solutions to improve health, wellbeing, and financial fitness.
