Store ratings include star-only taps from in-app prompts, which skew high. The peak and recent figures come only from people who wrote a review, which skews low. Compare each against itself: the drop is the signal, and a big gap between the two usually means heavy rating prompting is masking unhappy users.

Track blood pressure, not measure blood pressure

★★ · v2.7.1 · Oct 13, 2026

This app tracks blood pressure, not measure blood pressure. I can measure heart rate.

Bluetooth Issue

★ · v2.7.0 · Oct 8, 2026

I have tried to connect my device to my phone and iPad and it will not show up. I reach out to support and did not receive an answer back.

Totally Free! NOT!

★ · v2.7.0 · Oct 7, 2026

The ad says totally free so I downloaded it they ask all the pertinent questions but before you can even try the app they want payment. Nothing is free about this app!

Not free

★ · v2.7.0 · Oct 5, 2026

False advertising saying free but after downloading app asking for money

Does not measure BP

★★ · v2.7.0 · Oct 5, 2026

Video Ad directing to this app alludes to BP measurement, but the app only allows logging BP measured somewhere else.

Bpm

★ · v2.7.0 · Oct 4, 2026

I wanted something that would measure my blood pressure not my heart rate. I already have that on my phone.

Does NOT measure BP

★ · v2.7.0 · Sep 27, 2026

I bought this because I thought it measured blood pressure. It does not. It only lets you log the data you capture from another blood pressure monitoring app or device.

Misleading

★ · v2.7.0 · Sep 26, 2026

The app does not take your blood pressure. You have to manually enter the data using a separate device.

Blood Sugar

★ · v2.7.0 · Sep 25, 2026

Will not show over 100. Not good for anyone with Type 2 diabetes.

User68

★ · v2.6.9 · Sep 24, 2026

Not as is advertised. It is scam!

INACCURATE READINGS

★ · v2.6.9 · Sep 23, 2026

The numbers are very inaccurate both diastolic and systolic and I want to discontinue this service IMMEDIATELY!

Really

★ · v2.6.9 · Sep 23, 2026

This app doesn’t work. I can’t get it to read my pulse my heart rate or anything doesn’t do anything but take up space on my phone.

misleading

★ · v2.6.9 · Sep 22, 2026

it logs the blood pressure you put i. does not measure your blood pressure.

BP?

★ · v2.6.9 · Sep 22, 2026

Don’t see any bp listed, just alot of verbage about my pulse!

Not recommended

★★ · v2.6.9 · Sep 19, 2026

This was advertised as able to measure blood pressure and heart rate! Nonsense! Can only track blood pressure that you enter! Now I’m out $50!

Scam

★ · v2.6.9 · Sep 19, 2026

App doesn’t work not keeping my reading and not giving accurate info

Sch cancel

★ · v2.6.9 · Sep 17, 2026

Never receded ver #

Claims to be free on Google, but charges when you get the app

★ · v2.6.9 · Sep 17, 2026

Scam

Doesn’t record heart rate

★ · v2.6.9 · Sep 17, 2026

App doesn’t work. Won’t record bpm. It says I gave zero. What a waste of money!

Not Free

★ · v2.6.9 · Sep 16, 2026

This is not free. I don’t know why you keep advertising it that way. Here’s some free advertisement for you for a small fee, you can use this app because we need to make money as well. Haven’t you heard the old saying honesty is the best policy

No, no, no.!!!

★ · v2.6.9 · Sep 16, 2026

How to get rid of this app without having to pay is extremely well hidden!!

Misleading

★ · v2.6.9 · Sep 16, 2026

Misleading tells you it’s free then after you fill in the data it tells you it’s going to charge you after a couple of weeks.

No blood pressure

★★ · v2.6.9 · Sep 15, 2026

This app fooled me into believing it would take my blood pressure. It doesn’t. Other apps may but this one does not. This is a log to store info.

Poor set up procedure

★ · v2.6.9 · Sep 15, 2026

I think I signed up for a 1-year subscription for $39.99 to test how well it works. Camera did not function as advertised, and now I can’t find a way to cancel the subscription. This should be easy. It seems like a cash grab. I would advise against signing up.

Inaccurate

★ · v2.6.8 · Sep 14, 2026

The heart rate monitor on this app is totally inaccurate. My heart rate was calculated by the app and was taken. Registered nurse with 30+ years experience. Each time we tested the app. My heart rate was 10 to 15 beats per minute inaccurate. I will be deleting this piece app

The opportunity

What would it take to build a viable competitor, what would it cost to run every month, and a prompt to get started. Generated from the reviews on file; one LLM call per brief. Set ANTHROPIC_API_KEY for a real brief; the stub only fills in a template.
