I bought this heart monitor because I had a TIA (minor stroke) 6 months ago and want to monitor my heart rate especially when climbing mountains. It is very light and very small - easy to carry around and works with my Android phone (a Samsung) through the app. At home/indoors it works well pretty much every time. When I try making recordings in the mountains - e.g. after a steep climb or on the tops I often get error messages or spurious results. I am still trying to work out whether my heart rate really is irregular after vigorous exercise or whether it is a problem with the readings. However, on top of a Munro 2 days ago it informed me that my heart rate was 235 - obviously not correct as I was chatting to others and felt fine at the time. I plan to put together a "log" of my ECG charts to give to my doctor for further analysis. (You can save the ECG to the cloud and down load them later) Do I think this product is useful: YES Am I glad I bought it: YES Is it better than a FitBit YES (way better! The fit bit only allowed my to down load my average heart beat over a 5 minute interval - useless for what I need) Would I recommend it: YES if you want to monitor and see your ECG in real time. A few other notes: - there are other features with the app regarding exercise - I don't use them - there is a VERY USEFUL feature that allows you to make notes regarding your ECG recording. For example, I note what exercise O had been doing just before taking the ECG, whether I had taken my beta blocker that morning etcRead full review

Works well but it took me a long time to get a signal from it to my phone. It needs to be right next to the phone and on a hard surface. A table cloth stops the signal! It is also worth checking that an android phone has "body sensor" settings enabled since my did not automatically connect.

This is a basic monitor of electrical activity in the heart. Using an app on an iPhone it is easy to set up and use. The results are for a cardiologist to assess, one who has the history well known to him/her. I doubt that a report written on the results with the cardiologist who has not had a proper consultation is of any value. The comments on each reading from the machine of of little value.

I recommend the Kardia to any one that likes to check their well-being in the comfort of your own home ! It’s so easy to use and with the phone app and easy to follow instructions, it’s a great little gadget ! I thoroughly recommend you buy one!

Really excellent. Very easy to download the app on a Samsung and use it. The Cardiologist immediately saw that I did have Atrial Fibrillation - rapid and irregular heart beat for a few hours at a time.
