iHealth Neo Wireless Blood Pressure Monitor, Upper Arm Cuff, Bluetooth Blood Pressure Machine, Ultra-Thin & Portable, App-Enabled for iOS & Android

I Love This Thing
Apparently, I’m at the age where I’m excited about a blood pressure monitor; sigh. But seriously, this thing is great. I’ve had high blood pressure at doctor visits for the last year or two. Not enough for them to give me medication, but enough to bring it to my attention. I bought this to be proactive and to try to identify patterns about when it’s high and why, and also so I can monitor it as I make lifestyle changes to try to lower it.I almost bought the other iHealth model that has the separate base because I liked the screen, but I ultimately decided on this one, primarily because I loathe disposable batteries and I liked that this model is rechargeable. I’m really glad I chose this one, it’s so convenient and portable! I didn’t think I’d care about that since I use it mostly at home, but it’s super compact and easy to keep anywhere without having some bulky contraption hanging around to look obnoxious.I chose the iHealth brand because I liked the idea of the app. You can use the app on your phone but it also automatically uploads to their cloud interface so you can sign on from a PC to view charts, etc. I will say the charts are less than ideal and could be better, but they’re okay. You can email them to yourself or others (like a doctor) via PDF and other formats, which is nice.The thing I like most about the app is having the start button on the phone. I like that I can start it that way instead of using the button on the unit so that I can sit quietly for a moment before I begin without reaching over to press the button. It’s a minor detail, but handy. You can also skip the app entirely if you prefer and the unit works without it.Setup was extremely easy. I find it to be accurate, at least as far as I can tell. My very first reading was almost identical to the reading my doctor got only 4 days earlier.It connects to Bluetooth automatically as soon as I open the app, and it also automatically uploads each reading to the cloud interface. It even shuts itself off and disconnects when I’m done so I do nothing except hit the start button, it couldn’t be easier.I like this so much that I came back to Amazon and ordered an iHealth scale as well, so I can monitor my weight loss, which is one of the lifestyle changes I’m making to lower my blood pressure. That will upload to the same interface so I can see everything in one place. I feel more in charge of my health with these units and I really like the ability to track my progress in the app.

Reçu et Ne chargeait pas, il m’a été remplacé dès le lendemain : très pratique et qualitatif

migliorato molto dal precedente, connessione alla App veloce, comodo il display incorporato

Das ist jetzt das zweite Neo, das ich gekauft habe: das erste nutzt jetzt mein Vater…Warum ich zufrieden bin:- es misst genau. Man muss nur beachten, wie man Blutdruck misst: man muss in Ruhe sein (weshalb man beim Arzt auch etwas warten muss, nur nimmt man es dort nicht als Teil der Untersuchung wahr). Man muss entspannt sitzen (und möglichst immer in der selben Position)- die Messung geht schnell und einfach- die Auswertung ist übersichtlich- die App ist einfach einzurichten und zu bedienen- ich kann auch aus der Entfernung sehen, wie es meinem Vater geht
