    appears to be a good personal EKG. In my opinion it should be used by a medical person,nurse,Dr, i feel the person needs to have the knodgle to read and process the information correctly.

    It seems to work. The app looks impressive. It has lots of lines like I see on TV. I dont know if they really mean anything. It did pick up the heart thing that I know that I have. I am not sure if it would ever see a second issues, since the issue that I know I have pops up. You really have to pay 10 a month to get any useful data. The first month is not free, the second month is free. I don't know if this is a 10 a month gimmick or not. I returned it.

      Thank you for sharing your experience with the AliveCor's KardiaMobile. It's great to hear that the device was able to detect the heart condition that you were already aware of. However, it's unfortunate that you found the app to be confusing and that you felt the need to pay a monthly fee for useful data. It's important to note that the monthly fee is optional and provides additional features such as personalized heart health reports and the ability to share data with a healthcare provider. It's understandable that you chose to return the product, but it's worth noting that the app and the device do have the potential to provide valuable insights into heart health when used properly. alivecor

    I bought the kardiamobile and schedule with the Geek Squad to help install on my smart phone. The Geek Squad was not able to install the device because the instructions that came with the device were not comprehensive. the geek squad employee said the instructions were the worst he had ever seen

    It’s somewhat worthless unless you do what they don’t tell you about in their advertisements. This being if you want a total complete evaluation you have to take out a subscription otherwise you get a fraction of a cardiac report.

At AliveCor, we aim to be transparent about the services and features available with and without a KardiaCare subscription. While the basic functionalities of our KardiaMobile device provide essential EKG recordings, the subscription offers enhanced analysis and additional features for a more comprehensive cardiac report. If you have any more questions or need further clarification, please contact us at Support@AliveCor.com or call 855-338-8800. We're here to help and ensure you have the information you need to make the best use of your device. alivecor

    The item itself worked great but I wouldn't buy it from Best Buy. Buy it somewhere else! My original order needed to be canceled (ordered at wrong store-right city name, wrong state) and they are refusing to refund my money for the entire purchase. Call center customer service is a JOKE!

    Suffer from PVCs. Device started showing PVC and then started showing normal heart rhythm. Echocardiogram showed I was still having PVCs. Called support and the only answer I received was readings can’t be guaranteed on the model of I pad I was using. Don’t waste your money on this device. Not that accurate.

    This tiny 6-lead EKG device could save your life.

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    This is a truly amazing, groundbreaking device. It will fit in your wallet! It really does give EKGs that cardiologists can use like the 6-lead EKGs they take on conventional equipment with 6 wires and 6 sticky pads that pull off your body hair when they are removed. I'm not an MD, but it seems that the difference in data between 6 leads and 12 leads doesn't matter in too many situations. There's a recent (2019/2020) article in the journal "Circulation" which uses measurements from KardiaMobile 6L devices. Ask your doctor. What I see is a device that sits on my knee, talks to my iPhone, and 30 seconds later provides a useful EKG that I can immediately email anywhere--like to my doctor-- from an iPhone (what I use; it's supposed to work with Android phones too). If you want a paper printout with scales that match your doctor's machine, something that he or she can immediately read, email the 4 PDF pages from the KardiaMobile 6L to your home computer and print it on your printer. An add-on service that the manufacturer provides for around $10/month lets you send your EKG to either a technician, trained to look for simple problems, or for something like $50 per EKG you can send it to a licensed cardiologist for in-depth review. // If you have an intermittent problem, you can buy this device for around what it costs to rent (for one month!) an old-fashioned, wired heart monitor that you have to belt on, drag around all day, skip showers with, etc. If you have a problem which you can sense when it happens and take an EKG, or want to take an EKG every hour or two to have your doctor interpret, this could save your life or your brain for the cost of 2 or 3 restaurant meals.

    This is a complete waste of money. Even if it was offered at half price, it wouldn’t be worth it. It does NOT make connection with the electrodes even with suggested lotion. If it eventually DOES connect, it is unreadable due to interference and/or my heart episode is gone.

    This device is extremely inaccurate. It sent us to the cardiologist 5 times needlessly. Even paying for their monthly subscription for "techs" and it was all still wrong. 2 cardiologists informed me that these devices are garbage. Total waste of money. Dont waste yours.
