Cardiio: Heart Rate Monitor

I put this app on my phone several years ago, and used it regularly, and when my AFib got better, I didn’t use it much. Then my heart went completely out of rhythm, and for a couple of months, I wore a monitor, had an ablation, and finally have it back in some semblance working order. I rely on Cardiio every day, several times a day just for a quick heart rate. I did not pay any extra, just have the free version and that is more than enough to keep my mind at ease. This is a great app, especially for my new iPhone SE, with just the simple camera. I keep an image of my reading, and have a folder of my daily readings! Thanks, Cardiio!!

I tried several deferent apps , some ridiculously expensive, asking for yearly subscription (Don’t know what for). None of were as accurate as this Cardiio app. and I am using the FREE VERSION. For ONLY A ONE TIME FEE OF $9.99 you can add 6 or 7 more useful features, but if you decide to have the free version, that would be good enough, There would be No pop ups of advertisement or anything like that. I really like the fact that makers of this app are very honest people. Thank you. P.S I READ AMOUNG SOME REVIEWS THAT THE PULSE READER ONLY WORKS LIKE 5 PERCENT OF THE TIMES. TO ME, THAT IS A GOOD THING, BECAUSE IT WANTS TO MAKE SURE THAT THE READING OF PULSE IS ACCURATE . SPECIFICALLY IF YOUR FINGERS ARE COLD OR DIRTY OR THE CAMERA LENS IS DIRTY. BUT ON MY CASE IT WAS THE COLD FINGERS. JUST PLACE THE FINGER UNDER YOUR ARM FOR FEW SECOND TO GET WARM AND TRY AGAIN . FOR ME, IT WORKED EVERY TIME.

Beware - this app simply doesn’t work with the flagship Apple iPhone 11 Pro Max. The problem seems to be the three cameras built into the iPhone 11 Pro Max. I contacted the help desk who in turn simply replied that I should read the directions. Either the help desk people don’t realize their own app directions are no longer up to date for current versions of iPhone, or I hope I’m wrong but perhaps they simply don’t care about customers of this app any longer. The app directions only refer to iPhones with a single camera. If it was just experimenting with placing my finger over one of the three cameras of the iPhone 11 Pro Max, or some combination of cameras, I wouldn’t have had to see if the help desk could actually “help” a customer. If you’re using most any version of iPhone less than the iPhone 11 Pro Max, this app is fantastic and works well. I hope the developer decides to update this app for Apple’s flagship iPhone. I also hope the help desk procedures get updated to provide actual help to customers.
