WithingsBPM Connect - Electronic Blood Pressure Monitor, Blood Pressure Machines for Home Use with Wi-Fi Synchronization, Blood Pressure Machine iOS and Android compatible

This is more of a health monitoring system rather than just a single device that tells you one thing.It comes with a cell phone app that does all of the Bluetooth/WIFI connecting for you, finds out who you are and sets up a free Healthcare account for you. It collects some other brief details, like your height and weight and that's it! Setup was an absolute doddle! Everything connected first time. No errors.From that point onwards, whenever you blood pressure is taken, those details are immediately uploaded by the device to your phone app, and you can see what your latest reading was. You can see that on the device too, if you have not got your phone handy, via the clear, dot matrix screen. I like that a lot.Not only that, once it uploads (which is immediate if your phone is in range) it keeps a permanent history so that you can see trends over time. And you can link that same app with other devices that you can get like watches that count your daily steps. It all gets fed into the same software.The app is called Health Mate and it also calculates your BMI, records your heart rate, fat mass, records your workouts, nutrition (logging what you eat), daily steps, health insights, trends (based on real measurements over time). And you can share your results with friends or even your doctor. Now that is a great idea! Worried about your readings? Just share them with your health professional.You can buy watches, and "fit-bit" style devices, wi-fi weighing scales, and hi-tech thermometers. Most will update and record data into the same app. Really interesting and useful stuff. The app looks great too. They have obviously thought about it carefully and produced a really professional looking and easy-to-use app.I always think you can tell the quality of a device by its packaging. The packaging of this device is not quite up to Apple/iPhone standards, but it really isn't far off! Very high quality and worth keeping.My device came almost fully charged (85%) (so you can use it immediately) and it took less than 10 minutes to top it up. In use, it is very powerful and squeezes you arm very tightly - at least as much as the automated devices that your own GP uses. That is very impressive for a comparatively tiny device.I also chose the hard shell case (pictured, which is extra. but worth it, in my opinion). I'm also going to buy a watch.I am really happy I chose this over the CCC options (Cheap, Cheerful & Chinese). Yes! I know it is more expensive but it is much higher quality and you get soooo much more, plus it all just works and it is in English! Bravo! Highly recommended.

This is a good quality blood pressure monitor. The setup was easy, just turn on blue tooth, scan the QR code, download the app and you are good to go. All readings are sent automatically to the app. Each reading is coded, so orange is a little bit high, red is high, green is good. I monitor mine twice a week after starting new medication and it has been a good quality purchase.

I went to the doctors and my reading was 155 over something so he was talking about lending me a monitor for a week to see what the pattern was. I'd been thinking about getting a monitor anyway so I ordered this from Amazon as it was next day. Bit more than buying direct but I'm impatient.Really pleased with it. Downloaded the app, added the device and away I went. The app updates almost instantly when you take a reading. It's a piece of cake to use.Two other big pluses for me are the fact that it integrates with Home Assistant so I can store the results and mess around with pretty graphs. I'm not convinced that there's a lot of value but I'm a "because I can" sort of person. I guess I could set up an automation to dim the lights and play soothing music if the reading is high!The second thing is adding in other users. My other half wanted to play as well so she installed the app and I added her as another user. After it finished taking a reading it'll flash a name. Press the button for 2s and it'll go to the next name. Press the button again and it'll sync with their account so everything is kept separate.This definitely won't be my last Withings device. I guess the only issue is that it'll turn me into some sort of neurotic hypochondriac. I'll have the doctor on speed dial.I don't know if Withings read these reviews (probably not). My only criticism is the manual. Black ink on brown paper might look cool but it's awful to try and read. Bear in mind that a lot of users are probably older with poorer eyesight.

If you only ever want to use it with the app, this is a great blood pressure monitor. However, as the results are only displayed very briefly on completion of the measurement, and only one at a time, you have to be very quick if you need to make a manual note of the results.Personally, having tried a combined BPM for the first time, I find that the separate sleeves are easier to fit than the combined sleeve & monitor of this one, particularly if you are on your own. The added weight of the monitor makes the fitting of the sleeve all the more fidgety.Good battery life, and on first glance decent manufacturing quality.So far, the BPM has lost connection with the app once, requiring a complete reinstall. Hopefully it will remain a one-off.
