Blood Pressure App 4+

First thing first, the app is very practical. I stumbled upon this app after being disappointed in a lot of similar blood pressure apps. So expect an honest and constructive review. It doesn’t put up deceiving descriptions like measuring the blood pressure. It simply records the numbers periodically. I can understand if my blood pressure is low, high or normal which is the most important information for a layman who can’t understand the numbers.

App works well and has been fine for me for the last few weeks. As everyone’s “normal” blood pressure can vary based on an individual’s health, I would like to see the ability to change the default numbers to reflect what my doctor wants my BP to be, not some company that doesn’t know me. Also, why isn’t there a way to set the placement of the BP cup, as well as your position when you take your BP, so you don’t have to change it after every reading … All in all a decent app, but those changes would make it more user friendly and individualized for the user …

Some very simple improvements needed:
1. The BP values and scales in the graphs are in the same color as the bars but should be black. Currently, e.g. elevated BP shows yellow bars (that’s fine) but also yellow BP values, which are almost invisible (yellow nrs on white background).
2. The horizontal scale on the graphs should indicate the days. One day should be a fixed horizontal unit, and all measurements of a single day should be within that unit. Currently every measurement is spaced the same, so 10 measurements in 1 day and 1 measurement the next day are not represented consistently timewise.
3. When entering a new data point, the L/R arm and body position should be default the same as the last entry.
