A-fib patient
I purchased this product because I periodically slip into A-fib and the Kardia-Mobile Personal EKG Monitor reportedly detects this heart rhythm. I can not speak to the accuracy of the actual EKG because, after all, I am not a Cardiologist. However, I can speak to the quality of the device, the ease of use, and even the ease of setup on my smart phone. I set up my phone in about 15 minutes (only because I'm old and not exactly 100% tech savvy) and took my first EKG shortly after. The device seemed to function perfectly and I could see the EKG "strip" right on my phone as it happened! I have not yet tried to use the sharing function but it is comforting to know that I can send an EKG to my Cardiologist whenever I need to. I believe the sale price was a very good value for a device that does what this little machine does and which can be so important. I'm very pleased with this purchase.

Does not pair with iphone
I have tried multiple times to do what the app asks, including restarting the app, restarting my phone, changing the battery, buying a new battery, and doing it all over and over again at least 10 to 20 times each. This will not connect with my iPhone, which is updated and just one generation out. This does not work.

Review from a techical POV
As someone proficient in reading cardiac monitors, I'm very impressed with the clarity that this device gives. It records in Lead II and records for 30 seconds. However, you have to be still or there will be some artifact. In addition, you have to connect with the app which is easy to download, but itself is a little confusing. Once you are able to record, it is displayed on graph paper so an accurate determination of arrhythmia can be made. Everything from P-R interval to the isoelectric line are clearly displayed. You also have the option to save the recording as either a JPEG or PDF.To me, this device makes the most sense for someone who can interpret the recording. It's not fair to compare the display to an actual cardiac monitor, but it will serve its purpose well. That being said, I'm glad I got it.

Gives peace of mind!
My husband has congestive heart failure and goes in / out of Afib. I bought this to give him peace of mind and the doctor really liked the reports. Connects easily to Samsung phones. I just wish the instruction booklets were bigger, I had to take pictures of the instructions and zoom in on my phone to read them. I am sure that the average customer is above 60 years old with poor eyesight, even with glasses! so they should take that into consideration. I would rate it a 4.8 due to the frustrating instruction booklet.

It’s not working. Now what? Who do I call? I’m new to ordering on Amazon.
I couldn’t get the Al to do what it was supposed to do…hook up to my phone and give me a reading.
