Blood Pressure Tracker •

I like the simple interface and the graphing capabilities. But $7 a month for a UI on top of a basic database seems excessive. $30 a year seems excessive. I’d pay a reasonable amount to purchase the app and then a small yearly upgrade fee. The developers DO need to get paid. But without the subscription you lose access to any data more than two weeks old. For an app whose primary purpose is to track data, this is absurd. Charge me for once for basic functionality (including permanent access to my data). If there are features that require the developer to maintain infrastructure, charge a subscription for that. If there is a lot of development that needs to be funded (not sure a blood pressure app falls under this category but what do I know?) then maybe a small yearly fee (but not $30). But this switching from one time purchases to endless subscriptions just to use a simple app gets expensive very very fast.

There are several other BP apps available in addition to Apple’s own Health app. All of them are able to get the job done, but this app does the best job of displaying the columns of raw numbers as well as the trend graph. It’s easy to expand or contract the graph to display specific date ranges of interest. The layout is clean, uncluttered, and very informative. Highly recommended! ———————- I assume the graphing feature of this app is still as good as it was, but I can no longer see it for longer than the short-term. This defining feature was apparently taken away so they could change the app to subscription-based. I dropped my rating from 5 stars down to 3 due to their decision to remove a feature I had already paid for.

I got this app to track my bp my weight and diabetes. The app has helped me track all this with out any problems. This is an excellent app for those who have any health issues or who just want to stay on top of their general health. The support team is also very helpful when suggestions are made. The one thing I would suggest is to make it possible to have the data appear on all your devices like the iCloud does with photos. Other then that I’m happy with this app.
