AirPods Pro (3rd gen) measure heart rate only during active use AND only during audio playback (music, calls, etc.).

They do not provide continuous heart-rate monitoring like an Apple Watch.

So if you are checking Health when the AirPods are simply “connected but not playing,” heart-rate data will not appear.
