BP monitoring App

Thank you kayteatal1

I take my BP once a month. I have printed a grid of squares on which I write my readings. Ahead of my annual medication review I email my chart to the surgery. I also have a small pocket diary in which I record any health-related details and appointments to take along to any hospital or GP visits.
A lot of apps are far more complicated than I can be bothered with. For my daily steps I still use an old fashioned 3D pocket pedometer - so much easier to see at a glance.

I record the readings in my diary.

Paper and pencil works quite well

DH simply uses a word table. Tried to get him to use excel as you could then put sums in to monitor changes but he is happy with the table, which he sends in

Do any of you gransneters use a BP app to record blood pressure? Would like a free one to record not to actually take bp.

Have you searched. They are out there.

😂

Not anymore 😁

Oh my gosh - you are all so meticulous in your BP monitoring. So, do you it twice daily ?

I used BP Journal. It's free and easy to use. It gives you a rolling 30 day average, statistics and charts which are customisable, for example, you can choose to look at results from a certain time period.
It allows your data to be explored to pdf files which can be sent to your GP.

I use the app that comes free with my Omron BP device - syncs my weighing scales too. Bit of a faff to set up but once done it keeps the records for years. I used to be 8 stone apparently (didn't have the Bp machine at that time) - thanks Omron

I use the online calendar on my phone and create a Take BP task for everyday. Then edit the title each day to my bp reading

I use HealthNest app. It’s really easy to use and will record all your readings and keep a running average of the last week or month’s worth of recordings.
Designed by a GP and very simple.

For our GP surgery, you're supposed to be able to send BP figures online, but I can't make it work so I just take a photo and send that. I know it makes a bit more work for the staff.

I have an Excel workbook for recording BP and test results.

I keep a record in the Notes app on my iPhone.

You could use an online diary / calendar to record your results

Notebook and pen here. I have an app but find it a faff

I use Notes app on my iPhone. Most android phones have a similar pre installed app.

I photograph them on my phone

My home monitor has a memory that records the last 30 or so. If I can be bothered, I later copy them out. The trouble is, my DH uses the machine too, so we don't know whose is whose! Well, we do actually, because his result is always in his boots.

I keep an A6 notebook with my BP monitor.
That works for me.

Is there something about an app you feel is more useful?
