InPulse - Heart Rate Monitor 12+

Blood pressure

I like this app because once I’ve taken my blood pressure I can leave notes and refer back to my doctors easy to use app I like all the features of other things that the app offers not just to record your blood pressure interesting things to have a little read about.

Waste of time

I installed this 2 months ago after I got out of hospital after a heart attack.. I thought it may help easily tell me my rate at rest then after excercise.. initially I checked my resting rate which was 65 thought fine did some exercise for 30 mins checked again it was only 87 .. considering it was a tough aerobic workout that I have been doing in the hospital and my rate there was 120 plus .. I kept going over a few days but it is consistently wrong as I’m checking my rate manually as well, on rest it is around 10-15 beats out and in exercise it is more like 20-30 beats per minute out.
This is actually very dangerous if people do believe the figures on screen, they could be overdoing exercise and causing heart problems.
Most of the apps I have seen don’t work, so just do it yourself it is easy enough

Works from your time.

I bought the year virsion of this app believing it was good and giving me correct up to date information.

I’ve had it for around 3 weeks now and soon started to realise that it just works from your time on your phone depending on the feed back it gives you.

I work night shifts 6 days a month, I do 6pm to 6am and I tend to take my pulse as I get home at about 6.45am and low and behold it tells me I’m full of energy and my stress is low….it seems to think I’ve just woke up from a good nights sleep so tells me this absolutely incorrect feedback as I know this is not the case and I know I’m just about awake and stressed from the nights work.

There are better apps out there and I certainly won’t be renewing my annual subscription to this app.

And after a couple of weeks, the information you get just gets very boring and repetitive.
