This little device is amazing! It monitors your heart and see your heart beat on the Kardia app! It also gives you your pulse rate and will let you know if your heart is beating too fast, or if there is an irregularity. Super easy to use. Just put two fingers from each hand on the little device and press start. Only takes 30 seconds. You can set it up to send results straight to your doctor, too!

My husband and I have been using this device and we like it. What I like about it is that you can use it with iPhone or Android phones. So we each downloaded the app on both phones. It's a relief when you see the results being normal. And the fact that this device is very accurate, makes me feel more confident.

This works very well. It gives both an EKG graph as well as beats per minute and a warning if BPM exceeds 100. It connects easily to a smart phone. I’m glad I made the purchase.

Surprise how easy it was to use. Keep the phone nearby, best put it down on a hard surface yet I need to test right away after I wake up, So with a little pressure with your thumbs underneath it does work.
In the app it does forward to general information that led me to discover possible sleep apnoea...

The Kardia device is Excellent, very easy to use. The ECG is pretty clear once it settles down after 5 seconds or so. Well worth the price!

This is really helps monitor my Dobermans heart condition and share recorded data with the cardiologist. It nice to have the ability to take readings at home saving trips to the vet.

There’s a learning curve involved but once you get it it’s easy and it’s goid to see if there’s a change in heart rhythm.

The ordering process was great, but the item purchased was not all it was advertised to be. There is a lot of interference with it working correctly. The EKG strip tracing can not be relied on!

I am 57, an age that I take seriously the condition of my heart. This addition to my self-health check-ups became very important. I love the quality and fast certified diagnosis. A must have along with the Blood Pressure check. The App is very simple, yet professionally done.

I guess it does what it is supposed to, but I don’t see how it is significantly enhanced over what I see on my Apple Watch. I’m not thoroughly impressed.

The product is a good product but only if you need it while you have your phone handy. The times i needed it my phone was not handy. So it didn't serve its purpose for me.

On the advice of my primary care physician (PCP), I purchased this device to be able to monitor myself for incidences of atrial fibrillation. It could not have been easier to set up and to use. Because my phone is 3 yrs old, before purchasing, I checked the AliveCor website to verify that my Android Samsung is compatible. I had no difficulty downloading the App. Getting readings of my heart rate and EKG was simple--it takes only 30 seconds. After saving the results to my phone, I can email them to my PCP. My cardiologist viewed the saved results at my next appointment, which was useful to confirm that I had experienced one incident of a-fib. (Note: He does not provide email access to his patients, and my EKG results cannot be uploaded to the patient portal. He thinks it is good that I got the Kardia, but advised me to only record my EKG if I am feeling that I might be in a-fib.) When using the Samsung Health App on my phone, I often have difficulty getting a reading of my heart rate, which is measured with a finger sensor. There is no such issue on the Kardia. Overall, I think this is a great device to have--especially during the pandemic!

First if you have a concern about your heart racing or pounding, get off the internet, call 911 and get to your nearest hospital!!
If you are still here, then maybe you only have a mild concern. In short, Kardia is as good as the positive reviews say!! I bought it in store, installed the App and was able to use it right away. I did not pay for any extra subscriptions so I can’t say anything about those.
I will say that my heart was periodically racing, pounding… (I did not think it was that serious.) It was mainly in the evening when the doctor’s office is closed. I looked at reviews, bought it, tried it and saw “unclassified” and “Possible Atrial Fibrillation!” I called my cardiologist and made an appointment. (I probably should’ve went to the ER, but this was early Covid time). I told the doctor about the readings, at first he said “I don’t trust those things.” After my EKG in the office he said “let me see that again.” My saved Kardia reports matched his! He explained how to read the EKG and the irregularities. I now will be taking two low dose medications for life but now my EKGs are “normal” or as they say now “normal sinus rhythm.” I’m alive 2 years later to write this review. Best life saving purchase that I have ever made!!

At first, I was not sure how well it would work. After playing with a little. It's great. Both Wife and I have illregular heart beats. I have an heart implant that records 24/7. But I'm not able to see the rhythm when it happens. Very easy to use and can sent a strip to the Dr.. Can carry with you anywhere and works with your phone or tablet. The app has other ways to help track your help. This can be a life saver. I'm a Retired Paramedic and know how to read the rhythms. You don't need to know how to read them. It is able to pick up on some important rhythms. If you have heart issues, I say this is a great buy.
