I'm a cardiologist and I have recommended this many times for people to diagnose periodic palpitations. The quality of the data is good if people can hold their hands still. The automatic interpretations are so-so in accuracy but it all stores to your phone so it can be reviewed.

I think the naysayers are missing the point of this. It's not to diagnose a heart attack, but if you, as an (especially older) adult, have a new onset of dysrhythmia, or feel like you're having palpitations devices like these can be really useful. Obv if you are having serious cardiac anomalies, go to the doc and get a halter monitor and work up. But for checking for atrial fibrillation when you're "not feeling right", stuff like this can be clutch. *not healthcare advice, but I have been a paramedic for 15 years and am currently on my way to being a physician assistant. Listen to what the slickdeals cardiologist says. He knows his stuff.

Nope. But it will keep nagging about upgrading to their paid plan. Just ignore that.


I've been using the pro version for about a year now. Its been pretty good, but sometimes it gets tough to measure. When that happens, clean off the sensors and try again. If it still has a problem, wait a bit. It needs a good bloodflow going to measure.

How does this compare to a HR chest strap?

I've had two cardiologists reject any data collected from this device. Was a waste of money.

Don't forget a cardiologist also makes money from ekg's, this doesn't replace a full EKG with all those electroids, but it's a way to monitor your heart at home and let you and does that much better than Apple watch or anything like that. But yes, if you go to cardiologist many will want to do their own EKGs and monitoring. However many also recommend that you have these at home so you can keep an eye on your own heart rhythms

While I'm not a cardiologist myself, I bring around two decades of personal experience as a patient and a background as a tech engineer specialized in sensors and embedded systems. In recent times, there has been a significant surge in individual medical devices such as blood pressure monitors, EKG monitors, and EKG watches.

My concern primarily revolves around the precision of these measurements. To the point where I've come across disclaimers suggesting that the results are meant for entertainment purposes exclusively, not to be regarded as medically significant (paraphrasing). After undergoing an EKG at a hospital, my cardiologist mentioned her inability to draw any definitive conclusions about my condition based on the results.

Nonetheless, I do see potential utility in these devices for data collection, particularly if the data is gathered under controlled circumstances. This could help in building a patient profile over time, which could then serve as a reference to identify and analyze any anomalous changes.

Obviously I agree, as I don't think that this replaces anything that the hospitals or the cardiologist offices do in terms of accuracy or detail or the number of leads etc.

This is only a one lead system. Obviously the ones at the cardiologist have many more leads.

However I've had two top cardiologists in my area both recommend I get one. Just thought it would help people.
