Vicks SmartTemp Thermometer 4+

The underarm temps are off but the oral temps seemed accurate. In my experience, it's been a good product! The thermometer itself is sleek and nice looking. The app is designed to sync with the thermometer so you can track each temp taken. You can add each member of the household. There are three options to take the temp: oral, rectal, or underarm. I found the underarm is not reliable with this product. The oral was the best route. The cons of this product was that you must have your phone to know what the temp is. Not good if your phone is dead or you left it in the other room. On the flip side, the phone is keeping track of the temps for you so you're able to organize the time and better gauge the time a fever has elapsed. There are flaws, but I think overall it's worth having. I received mine free for testing purposes. I would recommend it to a mom for sure!

Hello my name is Natalie. I am a mother of 2 ages 4 and 5 years old. When they are sick taking their temp is no easy task there's looking for paper or if none writing. The temps in my arm to keep track of them. It's just crazy and my kids are getting impatient because they already dont feel well. I was lucky enough to be part of a social testing group called influenster that lets you test products that match up to certain surveys you take. I was matched with this very thermometer whichever me tell you came just in time! My daughter had suddenly came with the flu over night and having a thermometer that links to your phone and every time you take the temp it reads it and stores and let's you I put the symptoms is every moms best friend . We already naturally have our phones with us or our child is playing games on it so access to the phone a snap. I grabbed thermometer used the Bluetooth connectivity and took my child's temp and there it displayed the temp and showed me through out the day what the different temps were and at what time I even emailed with the option to
To my husband her almost chart so he can see her temps it's great for sending to doctors or saving for the next visit letting them see how the child been feeling
I'm a huge fan and recommend for those moms that need a fast way to take temp and keep organized

I wanted to off set the poor reviews with my actual experience. The thermometer and the app interface appear to be accurate and working well for me. The person who wrote that values can't be entered manually didn't read the very easy to understand FAQ section that explains how to do this or maybe it wasn't available at the time of their review. The only thing missing from the app right now is the manual. I was hoping it was actually there under the heading "Manual" so that I didn't have to keep the small paper foldout that came with the thermometer. Hopefully, this will be added soon in an update. Setup was finished in about 1 minute. The app even shows how much battery life is left. My battery life shows 82% even though I just purchased this. The thermometer didn't come with one of those plastic strips - that you remove upon first use - that would decrease battery drain before use. I gave this app and thermometer 5 stars because it does what it says it's suppose to and appears to do this accurately.
