Send your heartbeat on February 14th and your other half will just melt!

If you're looking for a unique way to show some love this Valentine's Day and want to avoid cheesy romantic gestures, then Asda's brand new Extra Special 'Send Your Heart' app will blow your mind! This nifty gadget records your heartbeat and then sets it to a romantic song that you can send to your other half at the push of a button. If you're separated from your partner this Valentine's but want to show you care, we think this is a genius gesture that can live on long after the big day. And if you are spending February 14 together but want to avoid the old chocolate and flowers clichés then why not surprise them with a high-tech token of love instead?So how does it work? We've tested the app for ourselves (you can download it for both <a href="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.vccphub.asda_valentines" target="_blank">Android</a> and <a href="https://geo.itunes.apple.com/gb/app/send-your-heart/id1079893676?mt=8" target="_blank">iPhone</a>) and created an easy 5-point mini-guide to help you get started...1.

Clever stuff.<img alt="recording_screen" class="ci-image ci-original" src="https://ui3.assets-asda.com/dm/recording_screen_GL?scl=1">3. Once recorded, you can listen to your heartbeat before the app matches it to a romantic song.<img alt="your_heartbeat" class="ci-image ci-original" src="https://ui3.assets-asda.com/dm/your_heartbeat_GL?scl=1">4.
