I like it the device but I get a lot of unclassified results, which aren’t helpful. I have a major complaint about the new interface for entering my BP and pulse that just happened with the new. It used to be a simple, extremely quick process to type the numbers in. Now I have to […]

The device is fine, but nearly everything in the app is locked behind a subscription, including several ‘types’ of data reports (i.e. if you don’t have a subscription, it will not tell you about PVEs even if the monitor detects them). I already paid nearly $200 for the device, I don’t wanna pay an extra […]

The user interface is awful. Most functions are oriented to the annual premium subscription service. Having purchased the device, there should be at least one free report for EKGs. In addition there is no way to check the connection/reconnect to the device without logging out, which causes the accumulated data to disappear. There is a […]

I subscribed, and the first time I used it after subscribing it sent a normal scan off for review without my input to do so, wasting one of the scans. The second time I sent a scan with an issue and the review was to a completely different scan. I said I will be canceling […]

I’ve been using this device and app since 2015. In the previous versions, scans could be marked as favorite with a yellow star directly from the list of scans in the history (Health Diary). Now scans can only be ‘starred” if you click on the scan and open it. This isnt too bad, but you […]

Great hardware, great idea but there are problems. First, they can’t seem to decide whether to be a hardware company or a subscription one so they are constantly trying to upsell you the subscription service. Please stop that. Second they did have a nice feature that allows you to record other metrics such as bp […]

This seems good at verifying fibrillation (though, in my experience, when it’s bad you know it’s happening anyway). On the downside, some of its diagnostic results are hidden behind a premium subscription which the initial cost of the device does not cover, it frequently advertises upgrades, and some of its data export functions are also […]

A 30 second EKG is like a 1 second breathalyzer. Based on using this product, which works very well as far as I can tell, I likely have arrhythmia & haven’t had it properly diagnosed. I can only tell I might have arrhythmia by how my heart feels at times & that I’ve been able […]

Needs a section to store note templates. I use Kardia to keep a daily record (by time) for my heart, diabetes and sleep apnea. Lots of different data. Templates I could set up for each type of data would be great. Oh, enlarging the note box so you could see four lines of writing without […]

This app has always worked quickly and correctly, but after getting a new Motorola G power 5G I have had problems. It worked normally for the first couple days until I received an automatic download of Android 15. Since then it has been unreliable. I replaced the battery, it worked once and then wouldn’t connect. […]

Please fix the blood pressure and weight graphs. I press to view a year and I just get two dots with the last two monthly averages. Please show all the data points, or at least daily/weekly averages, so I can see trends. And please actually show a year’s worth. Zooming the graph frequently makes the […]

It is very difficult to get a reading without (what the app claims is) interference. It takes me 4 or 5 tries to get a reading that it says is usable. I’ve followed online instructions for improved readings, but nothing seems to help. By the time you get a usable reading, whatever arythmia you were […]

Update: I like the update. No more Price is Right scrolling. Thank you! This app was a lot better when I could manually type in my blood pressure rather than have to scroll through the numbers. I don’t like having to play Price is Right just to be able to input my numbers. Sure I […]

Additional Edit: Once again they have “improved” this app by making it impossible to save the results with one step. Formerly, you could just hit EMAIL and direct it to (in my case) a DropBox folder. Now you have to download the PDF and from your PDF viewer save it to (again in my case) […]

Saving the data is Really Difficult to do on an Android. The gadget is great and I’m thankful for it but the flow of information appears to stop with me. I save the reports, I have months of readings, but I have no idea where it goes on the phone and no way to send […]

Great device. Only thing I don’t like is the minute you open the app to take a reading you get an ad to buy upgraded service. I understand business side of medical devices, but everytime! Once or twice a week is plenty. It gets to the point you know it is an ad and you […]

App is very good, but always prompting me to upgrade, which is annoying. My cardiologist recommended it. I use it with the thin credit card recorder, which I can keep in my wallet or phone case. very easy to use. Only other downside is that it is too many steps to get to view your […]

Seldom works. Gives errors that say it can’t read results due to noise. Have tried everything I can think of and everything suggested in the help files with no difference. It occasionally works but not enough so that I feel that the KardiaMobile was money well spent. I certainly am not inclined to pay a […]

App freezes after login on 2 different devices. We have 2 Androids (Samsung Galaxy and Google Pixel). On both phones, I install the app, login with my existing account, and then get a permanent solid white screen that never takes me to anything. I tried: closing and reopening, force closing and reopening, uninstalling and reinstalling, […]

Unit is ok, but not great. Doesn’t do a good job for people with tremors such as Parkinson’s or Essential Tremors. It can be hard to get a stable reading. Also, have had issues with schmutz getting into the battery compartment. Then, even though it shows 66% battery level it failed to get a reading. […]
