A:AnswerKardiaMobile lists only a very limited number of phone models as "certified" to work with their device. However, there is no reason to think that other modern phones will not work. I tried my LG G8 ThinkQ and it works just fine despite not being on their list.
A:AnswerThe system does determine bradycardia and tachycardia and of course AFIB. If there is any other irregularities it only calls it “Unclassified”.
A:AnswerThe KardiaMobile device does not measure blood pressure. However, it can record EKGs to monitor heart rhythm. If you're looking to track blood pressure, you may want to use a compatible Omron blood pressure monitor with the Kardia app. Let us know if you need more information!
A:AnswerUnfortunately you have to have a newer smart phone to be able to use Kardia Mobile. After purchasing the Kardia Mobile, i found other alternatives on Amazon that does not require a smart phone. They have screens that show you the heart rhythm, but i am not sure if the results can be stored and shared. Hope this helps some.
A:AnswerI was using it to determine if what I thought were heart flutters affected my heart rate. I would use it when I had this unusual flutter which was once at bedtime every couple of nights. There was one night it went on for 3 hours. However when I talked to my doctor about the issues, I was told they would run tests. And didn't take too well to the fact that I was monitoring myself. I had pursued this cuz a friend of mine was told to buy one by their heart doctor. So I guess it depends on your doctor.
A:AnswerYes, two people can use the Kardia device, but each person will need their own separate Kardia account in the app to keep their EKG recordings organized. The app also has a Guest Mode feature, allowing others to take an EKG without creating an account. Let us know if you need more details!

A:AnswerYes, more than one person can use the device. I have it set up on my LG phone, and my wife has it set up on her IPhone. In addition, if another person used the device with my phone, the app asks a question if the reading was for me or a guest.
