I got ours last year and it is working well and seems to be accurate.
From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Andy Baracco Sent: Monday, April 17, 2017 11:52 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: Measuring Blood Pressure I found a review and podcast concerning the QardioArm on www.applevis.com<http://www.applevis.com> The list price is $99, but it can be had via Amazon for $93, which puts it within the price range of similar talking models through vendors like Maxi Aids. it is an upper arm cuff attached to a unit that communicates via bluetooth with an ap that runs on either IOS or Android. It measures systolic and diastolic blood pressure, and keeps a log that can be exported to Health kit, Emailed to your doctor, etc. The reviews on Amazon are truly a mixed bag. some say it is the greatest thing since sliced bread, but there are many negative reviews, saying that it is difficult to pair, battery life sucks, and readings can be eratic. Some folks said that they had to have the unit replaced once or even twice to get one that worked properly. What is interesting is that the unit apparently was introduced in 2014. The positive reviews were generally dated in 2014 and 2015 and the negative reviews were dated in 2016 and 2017. Go figure!

Is set up accessible? This being an arm cuff, is it possible to take your own blood pressure? Currently, we have the wrist model. Can multiple people use the device, and does it connect up to health kit on the iPhones? Thank you, I am looking to update our blood pressure monitor.

Note the spelling of “qardio”, it’s with a q a, not the usual spelling. Anyway, this is a cuff that you put on your arm, and it connects via bluetooth to your i phone. There is an app for it, and this is where you control the cuff and get the results from each measurement. FyI, they also have a body weight scale, and it also measures body fat percentage. This also connects to the phone via bluetooth. The app makes these devices fully accessible. We own both of them here, and love both! You can find them on amazon.
