Welcome to this review of the Withings blood pressure monitor.
The Withings blood pressure monitor is the first monitor specifically designed to be
used in conjunction with your iphone, ipad or ipod touch.
Just like a traditional blood pressure monitor the Withings monitor measures your systolic
and diastolic blood pressure, along with your pulse rate, however it then stores this data
directly onto your iphone, or other iOS device, to provide you with in-depth health data and
tracking.
Simply download the free Withings app to your Apple device and you can do a host of different
things including generating graphs, analyzing trends in your blood pressure, calculating
averages from sequential readings and much more.
You will also have your own personal account on the Withings website which gives you access
to e-health and other online services.
Again, unlike traditional monitors, this unit offers a multi-user capability which makes
it perfect for monitoring the whole family's blood pressure over time.
In keeping with its multi-user capability the cuff also adjusts to work with arms from
9 to 17 inches in circumference.
Finally, this monitor uses 4 AAA batteries, which are included with your purchase.
But what do users think of the Withings blood pressure monitor?
Perhaps not surprisingly this is a popular monitor and 8 out of 10 buyers say that they
are very pleased with their purchase.
In particular, buyers love how easy this monitor is to use. Simply slip on the pre-formed cuff,
plug the unit into your Apple device and you're away.
They also like the Withings App which is very easy to download and install and provides
great tracking and display functions without being too complicated to use.
The ability to use this monitor for the whole family is also welcomed and it makes a pleasant
change from most other monitors which will allow you to record data for just one or two
people.
Measuring your blood pressure is only one part of monitoring your health and just as
important is recording your data and seeing how you blood pressure improves or deteriorates
over time so that you can make sensible health and lifestyle choices. If you are looking
for a simple way to combine a monitor with a powerful tracking and analytics application
then look no farther than the Withings blood pressure monitor.
