Heart w/ arrow icon

sometimes while walking I look down to see heart rate and see a red heart with a circular arrow inside. Does anyone know what this means?

Hi there


The heart with the arrow means the Apple Watch could not find a heat rate and to try again. This can happen due to the fit of watch bands, perfusion, cold temperatures, tattoos, sweat and other factors.


I hope this helped
