Really like that you don’t have to connect to the app to use as it works independently. You can link it to the iHealth app and uploaf your readings to keep track over time and see your results on a chart.
For an armband monitor it’s quite compact.
More accurate than a wrist monitor.

I got this for my dad after he had some blood pressure issues that landed him in the hospital. He now has to take it 3 times a day and this product has been perfect. It even records it daily on the app which hes able to show his dr. so they can see what its like daily vs. when hes only in the office. Great buy and easy to use.

I’ve been using iHealth product for close a year now and it’s their thermometer ( not a smart thermometer just a forehead thermometer). It’s almost the best value and good design forehead thermometer I could found in the market and the accuracy is guaranteed by following the instructions as it’s an infrared thermometer.
I bought this iHealth Track wireless blood pressure monitor for my parents. Their readings are always higher at the doctor’s office so I just wondered about the accuracy for this machine, but explained by the primary care doctor it maybe related to the white coat hypertension. For me I tried it and the readings are almost the same as the reading at the doctor’s office so I trusted our family doctor. We used Omron 5 blood pressure monitor before but it’s without the smart feature that allows my family member to upload the data to the smartphone. Thanks for the smart app by iHealth , they allows to export to CSV, EXCEL and PDF file directly and it’s the most time saving to type manually via email to our doctor!
COMPARING OMRON 5 SERIES AND IHEALTH TRACK BLUETOOTH BLOOD PRESSURE MONITOR : CUFF, DISPLAY, POWER AND FEATURES
OMRON 5 Series Upper Arm Blood Pressure Monitor :
-2 Users and 100 Reading memory (50 memory per user)
-Soft cuff which I like better than iHealth Track, it fits arm circumferences from 9 to 17 inches in circumference
-with lens cover which iHealth Track does not have, it’s for the protection of LCD display.
-4 AA batteries
-Hard plastic shell
-Measuring during deflection which same as iHealth Track, around 40 seconds for me to finish a testing.
-Size is bigger than iHealth Track blood pressure monitor.
– Accuracy is okay as same as the iHealth Track, normal for me but higher for my parent’s readings comparing the results tested at the doctor’s office.
iHealth Track Bluetooth Upper Arm blood pressure monitor:
– 1 User only with 99 reading memory, unlimited storage in the app and cloud! Yes, iHealth does provide free cloud service to their hardware users and you have to register an account to use it, even without the devices and use that app as a digital logbook, guess very few people using it for digital logbook if they don’t have the device.
-Seems regular normal cuff as the Relion blood pressure monitor that selling in Walmart I like Omron’s cuff more. The Track’s cuff fits upper arms with Circumference of 8.7”-16.5” (22-42cm),quite similar like Omrom 5’s 9 to 17 inches.
– Multi-color backlit LCD display!!! Guess this feature is from the genius’ brain! Green means normal BP level, yellow means high blood pressure and red means severe hypertension which you need to take good attention. Even without the lens cover like Omron but it doesn’t matter at all with this great feature.
-4 x AAA batteries
-Hard plastic shell
-Measuring during deflection and same as Omrom blood pressure monitor, around 40 seconds for me to get a result since press the start button.
-Size is quite handy comparing with Omrom 5 series BP machine.
-Accuracy is great for me as I got the almost the same results from the doctor’s office.
-Bluetooth! YES! I love this feature as bought it and the iHealth’s app is a great tool to track the blood pressure! Same as ads. I see the reviews people said it does not support iPhone 10, I think they may don’t know how to connect as it’s a Bluetooth 4.0 and needs to connect by launching the app. No problems for the app set up. You can do the things from this amazon app :
->View results and learn more about each measurement.
->Check if your blood pressure is in the normal BP range.
->Take notes and record your mood or activity with each measurement.
->Store results in a digital logbook.
->Real-time results and trends.
->Set reminders to measure your blood pressure.
->Export your data as CSV, XLS, or PDF to share with your doctor.
Everything you need for a good wireless upper arm blood pressure monitor iHealth Track all has.If ask me to soccer these two blood pressure monitors, I will give 6.5 to Omron 5 and 8.0 for iHealth Track. But for this price I can complain nothing as it’s almost the unbeatable price on Amazon for a blood pressure monitor with these features and nice app.You can use with or without smartphone which it’s easy for elder people using.
Hope this review has been of help–thanks for slogging through all the detail. These are all good blood pressure monitors depending on your specific needs or preferred cuff, brand, display and wireless feature.
HAPPY MEASURING!

We already have a iHealth Blood Pressure Monitor a BP3. We needed a new model that would Bluetooth to our iphones, so we bought iHealthKN-550BT. We expected a SLIGHT difference in readings between the different models BUT the KN-550BT continually reads a lot higher than the BP3, ie +10 systolic and +15 on Diastolic but same on both for pulse reading. This major difference is alarming.
Also, it’s not made clear how two people can split the readings to their separate iphones.

We needed something for my mom who hates to write the logbook everyday so I searched through the Amazon and selected the iHealth Track wireless blood pressure monitor. My criteria was that the unit must be easy to operate, easy to upload the data and most importantly accurate! We have tried the Omron blood pressure monitors from the local CVS store and found the Bluetooth connection is not that easy and the app is quite simple and does not provide enough features what we need.
Here are what we are happy about this blood pressure machine:
1. Easy to use with one button and just press it.
2. Multi-color backlit LCD display and extra large digits which easy to read even for elder people. Nice big numbers for reading.
3. App is super easy to use, no problems with my iPhone XS Max and also no problem with my mom’s Samsung S9. It’s a powerful digital logbook for all people with hypertension.
4. Enough memory storage space as 1 user with 99 times with time and date (MM/DD/YY) . Other blood pressure monitors we bought before is without the year information.

I have high blood pressure and the Doc said I need to monitor it at home. So now I do, when I can remember at least. I did it a lot for a while but have been slacking lately. The machine does great, and I have yet to replace the batteries. Very impressed with their life span. I love the way it syncs up to my phone. When I last went to the doctor to get a refill on my meds, I just pulled it up and showed him. He looked at it for a minute and was happy with it, so I got my refill.

Have had intermittent readings indicating very high pressure when alternative monitor showed correct pressure. The pulse is not always accurate either. Had one reading of uneven heartbeat and pulse of 150 beats per minute whilst resting! Utter nonsense! The armband is way too long to be easy to use and the tube that connects the armband to the monitor is only slipped onto the connector. There is nothing to keep it in place so it can slip off very easily and you get a false reading. The manufacturer knows this because the instructions tell you to make sure the tube doesn’t slip off! Very poor. In my opinion it is not fit for purpose. Unfortunately, I didn’t realise I was getting false readings until after the 1 month return date had passed or it would have been returned. Having checked again, I cannot see anything about a warranty in the product information. I will not touch this company’s products again with a barge pole! UPDATE 9 months later: APPALLING PRODUCT! I thought I would compare the reading of this unit with the Boots one I had been using so tried a reading and battery low warning showed on screen. Fair enough. Changed the batteries for ones I know have been reliable rechargeable ones in the past and in SECONDS the unit was hot to touch and then SMOKE poured out of it! DANGEROUS! To get a refund, now, I would have to contact Paris or some place in China. Good luck with that! Never again.

I bought an iHealth Ease a year ago. It worked for awhile but stopped due to the Bluetooth no longer connecting to my iPhone. The iHealth Track appears to be a more reliable design. The Track uses replaceable batteries unlike the rechargeable Ease. Also, the Track has its own display and does not depend upon Bluetooth to connect to your phone to take a blood pressure reading. So far so good. It works and does sync BP readings to my phone. Hopefully it will be more reliable than the Ease which crapped out in 12 months.

Very useful as it prints right into my iPad and i could easily write down the BP readings. I also have an Omron device, but it does not do the same – so this bluetooth device is better and easy to use.

This is a nice little machine at first I thought it was broken cause it kept say my bp
was higher than it should be went to Dr. later in day an it was way lower than machine said , but after a few uses it seemed to home in on better reading
my down fall with this machine is that I am going by the lights an not paying attention to numbers as long as green i am cool
The colors are kind of cool cause you know right then an there if there is an issue so there is no guess work
the use is the tricky part trying to put the cuff on right
my inside sources say do not buy the wrist ones cause the are less likely to be accurate

I have been using this twice a day for the last couple weeks, overall I am very pleased.
Pros:
-Works right out of the box
-You can connect it to your phone (Optional)
-Compatible with Apple Health App
-App Charts out trends and analyses if your blood pressure is good or bad for you
-Accurate, I tested this out against a more expensive meter, got almost exactly the same results
-Time and date update automatically when connected to bluetooth
Cons:
-Cuff is for small or medium arms
My Experience so far with this has been incredibly positive. Highly recommend.

Purchased after my husbands triple bypass surgery to help track his healing progress. It works very well and is accurate. I am only giving 4 stars because it squeezes a bit painfully. It connects without complications to our iPhones and didn’t even have to play with Bluetooth settings. The App Store was an easy download and set up.
