Complete 2-in-1 Blood Pressure Monitor + EKG for Home Use & Upper Arm Blood Pressure Cuff - #1 Doctor & Pharmacist Recommended Brand - Clinically Validated - Connect App

This works great! It’s very easy to use, and the setup was simple. The app on my phone is user-friendly and makes it easy to track everything over time. I like that it keeps a clear record of readings, which is very helpful for monitoring and sharing with healthcare providers. Overall, it feels accurate, convenient, and professional. I would definitely recommend this to anyone needing a reliable blood pressure monitor.

I felt that I needed to submit this review since some prior reviews were somewhat negative. However, most of the latter was due to sensitivities associated with privacy, some problems with connecting to Bluetooth, and the fact that it uses AA batteries which is unfair. As for privacy, it no longer needs to send your initial results for calibration. It starts tracking and monitoring from the first use. As for the batteries, I've used mine now 2-3 times daily for 2 weeks and no battery issues. In fact, I like the fact that it's so portable. So here's my review. Download the Omron Connect app to your phone. Be sure your phone is on bluetooth. Be sure you have a good WiFi signal. Go to your phone settings to monitor for connected devices. Push the bluetooth search button on the Omron unit. Accept the connection on your phone. When you start the Omron Connect app, you will need to sign-up for an account. Yes, it will ask for your permission to send your data to Omron so that they can monitor. The free service is all I use. There is a separate, included piece of paper with the unit that says that you no longer need to have your first EKG reviewed by a doctor for "calibration" purposes. I didn't sign up for any of the subscriptions yet I still find what I get for free from the app to be perfect. I can list all my past blood pressure (BP) readings and send them as an Excel file to myself or doctor by email for tracking. I can send a snapshot of any EKG reading (it stores them on the phone, I think there's a limit as to how many it stores, I have 2 weeks of EKG right now) and send it by email also. The app lets you chart BP by days, weeks, months. I really don't need anything else. So with your account created and the Omron Connect open and running on the phone, go to the Dashboard on the app and select the "Blood Pressure + EKG" option, scroll down a little and you's see a button that says "Record Blood Pressure and EKG". Push it and it will bring up an instruction screen that says to connect the BP cuff to your arm, push the "START/STOP" button on the Omron Unit, and place your thumbs and fingers on the metal sensing pads." So here is where its a little tricky. You need to actually have the Unit OFF since when you press the "START/STOP" button it will in effect turn off if its on. So i usually just set up my phone, place it in the convenient resting cradle on the unit, attach the cuff, and then turn the unit on. It starts automatically. After the EKG is done, wait until your BP reading shows up on the UNIT and then lift your fingers/thumbs off the unit. Everything is stored automatically. It doesn't take too many tries before you figure out how to use the unit. You get an instantaneous review of your BP and EKG on your phone. This unit is perfect. I can see why this unit will save lives. The feedback is instant and you can check it several times (though be sure to release the cuff and wait a few minutes between readings). If it takes a few times to get it to work for you be sure you disregard the first few readings as your BP probably went up a bit due to the "stress" associated with getting to know how it works. Once you have it down, it always works. I highly recommend this unit and this company. This is a real medical instrument by the best company in the business. (I gave the accuracy only 4 stars since I don't really know how accurate it is; but it is the only home BP and EKG unit that is accredited so I trust it).

This is easy to use, and syncs to my phone easily. My only complaint is there is no power option other than batteries. However I have had it for over a year now, and still have not needed to change the batteries! EKG is a nice touch, and we have used OMRON for years for blood pressure readings. A nice unit.

Product fine? Didn’t do my homework. Not compatible with my phone.📱 tried 3 different BP monitors. This one was way higher than the other ones!

Device worked fine using my iphone, but after switching to Android the app doest have half the capabilities of the iphone version. There is no ability to choose only a blod pressure reading without running an ekg, and the EKG is so erratic its impossible to finish a test of any length. Blood Pressure reading are wildly innaccurate. I turned off NFC in my phone and ensured I was on the latest android and omron app version. I emailed Omron support multiple times, received an autoresponder saying they would reply in 48 hours. Two weeks later, still nothing received. Im past my Amazon return period and have to eat the loss. If you have a samsung android I would avoid this vendor.

Easy to setup and use, connects fast on Android, my cardiologist loves the history I can send to him. My wife feels better being able to see my EKG. Quiet and buttons feel like good quality. It is a bigger unit but worth every penny so far. 5 year warranty is not bad at all.

I bought and started using when I noticed irregular heart rhythm, meter identified anomaly in EKG and cardiologist verifief with a 10 lead test showing same anomoly. Medication corrected the problem and I consistently get normal readings. Recently a close friend was feelinh bad and I did BP & EKG test on him, the software recognized AFIB anomaly and recommended medical care. His primary doctor dismissed the reported result in a telemed appointment then a few days later in-office he showed the 4 test reports I had generated, then he was given 10 lead test verifying reported AFIB and was sent to ER and admitted to hospital. Minor surgery with shock to heart to reset the rhythm as at least temporarily stabilized him and he is buying his own unit to test himself regularly. I am convinced by multiple personal experiences this machine has prevented serious cardiac events and complications. A single lead test is not going to detect all anomalies but the analysis software will detect many issues and abnormal results should be reviewed by a doctor. Im thankful it worked for me and would buy again now that I have experienced it's effectiveness.

Update: support finally contacted me with a workaround. Not a great option but at least it worked. Still, should not have taken so long. But upgrading score. This is a great device. Gives a reasonably accurate blood pressure reading and the quality of the EKG surprised my cardiologist. I have intermittent afib and the importance of taking regular EKGs can not be overstated. For quite a while this need was met quite well by this product. However in order to take an EKG you must use the app along with this device. You don't need the app for a BP reading, but you do for an EKG. And herein is the problem. A few days ago this app simply froze up. It not only froze on my phone but on my wife's also. I have deleted the app and reinstalled it with the same result. The app opens, nothing works, and after a few seconds closes itself. I have tried multiple ways to contact Omron including sending an email to the email address given on their website, filling out a contact form on their website, leaving a message on their Facebook page, and leaving comments on their Facebook posts. All, every single one, has been ignored. No response. Without the app working this device is basically a paperweight. The very least a company of this size should be able to do is respond. They have chosen not to. I am giving this a 2 star instead of a 1 star because the device works for a BP reading, and used to work for the EKG. Now however, for me, it is a useless piece of equipment. Buyer beware.
