Koogeek blood pressure monitor for iPhone, monitor your health at a good price

Koogeek has quickly become an iPhone accessories brand with a wide catalog that covers products of all kinds and that offers a very balanced quality and price. Your HomeKit products at very competitive prices we have already analyzed them on some occasion, and now it is the turn of an accessory to control our health, or disease, depending on how you look at it.

It is the Koogeek blood pressure monitor, which in a very simple way and with the guarantee offered by the FDA (American Drug Agency) certification will control your blood pressure and will record all the measurements in your application which, as it could not be otherwise, is compatible with the iOS Health application. We have tested it and we give you our impressions.

One application for all accessories

First of all what you should do is download Koogeek's app for all your health accessories, ranging from the blood pressure monitor we discuss in this article to scales, thermometers, and muscle stimulators. All accessories can be controlled from the same application, which is interesting if you plan to buy several accessories of this type. The application allows the incorporation of different profiles, so that several people can use the accessory without mixing data, saving each record in the corresponding profile.

The link with the blood pressure monitor is very simple, and This model allows it to be done both via Bluetooth and via WiFi. I have not found the difference between one type of connection and the other, and I opted for the bluetooth link which was more direct. One press on the button of the blood pressure monitor and in a few seconds I had the device configured to start taking measurements.

Measuring your blood pressure

The cuff should be placed loosely but snugly on the dominant arm (or the one with the highest tension) leaving a couple of fingers of clearance to the crease of the elbow. Sitting with the feet placed on the floor and without crossing, with the forearm resting on a table and with the cuff placed at the same height as our heart, we can start the measurement by pressing the heart that appears on the screen of the application for our iPhone. The cuff will start to inflate and deflate automatically, giving us the measurement right after.

One of the benefits of this Koogeek blood pressure meter is that It has a screen that offers you the measurement data, so you will not need to look at the screen of your iPhone to know what results you have obtained. You can even perform a manual measurement without iPhone connected, by pressing twice on the button of the blood pressure monitor once it is correctly placed on your arm. It is something that other models lack and that in certain situations you can take advantage of.

Compatible with iOS Health

Such a device must be integrated with Apple's health platform, and compatibility with Health is therefore not lacking in the Koogeek application. You can see the measurements from their own application, but also from the native iOS app. This is not only a convenience when viewing data, but also an advantage as it can be combined with the rest of the data collected by other devices, such as our Apple Watch or other health accessories that we have. The only problem I see with the application is that I want to show a lot of data and the navigation through it is not too intuitive, sometimes having to go back and forth through menus to see what you want.

Specifications

In addition to the 2,2-inch LCD screen in which it shows us the measurement data, the specifications of this Koogeek tensiometer are completed with a battery more than enough to carry out daily measurements for a week, a microUSB connector to recharge the device and a manual power / measure button. The weight of the accessory is quite low (300gr) and the size is small enough to carry it in any bag or suitcase without taking up much space. Its price is € 69,99 in Amazon, smaller than most similar devices, and let's not forget that it is certified by the FDA, so the measurements are precise enough to be reliable. Also for a limited time (until August 31) With the promotional code 4EH7I9ER when making the purchase, its price will be only € 34,99, take advantage of the offer.
