RE: Accessible smart blood pressure monitors
And don't mind Mr. Ed's mentioning of a "prescription", he does really mean "subscription", but he is so old by now that he mixes up stuff all the time and his Qardio doesn't even detect a blood pressure any more so if anybody wants one for free just send him a private message and he'll send it to you (if he doesn't forget) 藍 -Original Message- From: viphone@googlegroups.com<mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com> mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com>> On Behalf Of Mr. Ed Sent: Thursday, August 25, 2022 10:22 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com<mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com> Subject: RE: Accessible smart blood pressure monitors As far as I know the prescription is for extra features.

RE: Accessible smart blood pressure monitors
Hello Wayne, It seems to me that you can still use your Qardio as always and that the subscription for $9.99/month or $99.99/year in the US and $12.99/month or $129.99/year in Canada is optional and just gives you additional features. Here is what I read on the Qardio website: important updates Monthly detailed report provides month-over-month insight into your health. Monitor medications Add medication details including specific measurements, when/how to take medications, and more. Manage daily activities Weather and air pollution information showing environmental effects on your health. Device replacement* Replace your QardioArm device. Why buy a new device if you can still take and track measurements as always, personally I couldn't care less about monthly reports, medication reminders (there are other apps for that and I assume including free ones and the environmental factors tracking is also not important to me. As for device replacement that is all nice and good, but I just checked on Amazon Canada and it shows the Qardio regularly at $129.99 and currently available for $111 so I can buy one for less than a one-year subscription. Have you actually tried to use your Qardio and found it not working without the subscription? To me this does not sound the way it should be, they still mention the basic app which is free and lets you take measurements etc. Best rregards, Sieghard -Original Message- From: viphone@googlegroups.com On Behalf Of Wayne Merritt Sent: Thursday, August 25, 2022 9:14 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Accessible smart blood pressure monitors Hello.

Re: Accessible smart blood pressure monitors
I have had the cardio arm for several years and I’m still using it successfully. I don’t see any reference to it as a subscription model.
