CONNEQT Health

I love the blood pressure device itself and think it can potentially be a real game changer. The app is fine in general but as others have noted there is NO DATA EXPORT feature. It will send you simple blood pressure readings to Apple health but the other metrics are not supported in Apple health so don’t get logged. If you want this data you have to log it yourself or screenshot it. This is a simple and obvious function so I assume they just want you to pay for their overpriced subscription.

I purchased Conneqt Pulse and am impressed. I like information, and to understand potential or existing underlying health issues. Knowing SEVR, Augmentation Pressure, Central Pulse Pressure, in addition to Brachial and Central Blood Pressure has opened the door to staying on top of heart health. I had a STEMI two years ago, but each person is unique. In my case it wasn’t caused by significant coronary artery disease but instead by overtraining - getting my heart rate in exercise significantly above the recommended maximum. After a stent and subsequent ablation, my heart seems to be behaving as it did before the STEMI, but I am staying on top of all cardiological recommendations. Conneqt is designed to give you information to share with one’s cardiologist. But, I see my cardiologist once or twice a year. I want to monitor my heart function between doctor appointments, and Conneqt is an additional tool to help me do that.

I made the mistake of buying this unit to replace my Qardio which disappeared overnight and no longer works. The unit itself feels cheap and bulky. The app is even worse. Very difficult to understand the readings because it literally only shows you the current day. Unless you fiddle around with the unclear tabs and sections. Don't get me started on the "assessment" that pushes you into a horribly synced AI video that feels like I'm at a doctors office watching the never-ending scroll across a monitor. The worst part is you can't exit the assessment if you accidentally hit the button you are locked into a three minute video. No exit button, no way to stop it except to kill the app. Even more frustrating, is the fact that you have no ability to simply export your data! All of this "extra special stuff" that this monitor supposedly does, but no way to put that data out to share with a doctor. Instead I'm forced to use the rudimentary sync to Apple health.
