### 2/5 — No support.

*2024-11-16, version 9.0*

Sent a few requests for help.  Nothing answered.

### 4/5 — Very useful and reliable

*2023-05-25, version 8.1*

I could bring it’s monthly summary to my doctor One inconvenience : do no synchronize on all my devices

### 3/5 — Not sure I like it anymore

*2022-06-28, version 8.0*

I’ve had this app for several years.  It’s great for tracking my blood pressure. Recently, however, it’s become annoying with the pop up message that tells me to turn on wifi to access more features.  It comes on every time I open the app, because wifi is never on when I use this app.  

I don’t want to turn on wifi, especially when I’m not interested in the other features.  It’s become a dissatisfier, so I downgraded my rating.

### 2/5 — Recent update is terrible

*2021-12-27, version 8.0*

I have used this for a number of years an it WAS great.  However the update that was released about a month ago has rendered this relatively unusable.  The response time for the input scroll wheels is now so long that it is difficult to make accurate inputs.  Worse, the move of the very small ‘+’ button that you need to hit to make a new entry onto the part of the screen with old entries means that any small misalignment with the tap results in you editing an old entry rather than putting in a new one, and since there is no real difference in the screens for the 2 functions, or warnings, it is too easy to lose an old entry while not properly recording a new.  Given this is health data, these mistakes could be considered borderline dangerous, so I would suggest the developer reverts to the functionality that the app had in previous version?

### 2/5 — Was excellent, now annoying.

*2021-12-09, version 8.0*

Intrusive full page advertising every time it starts up. I am now going to switch to the NHS app.  It seems that the developers have slain the goose that lays the golden egg.

### 3/5 — Does not Show meaning of the colors

*2021-08-06, version 7.3*

Does not show meaning of the color code used

### 2/5 — Annoying ads

*2020-12-21, version 7.2*

I don’t mind the ads but they are in a horrible spot! Move them from the middle of the page and you will get a higher rating.

### 2/5 — BP Companion Pro

*2020-03-03, version 7.1.1*

I paid a premium price for the pro version but still get pop up ads, not happy!

### 3/5 — Exporting data

*2019-07-18, version 7.1.1*

Great product if it worked when sending information by email. Perhaps someone could help with this? It used to work, but now does not.

### 2/5 — Not as good as used to be

*2019-06-19, version 7.1*

This app used to be excellent. Now has ads popping up everywhere throughout the data sets as well as graphs of bp data being blocked so you can’t see them at various times. Not an improvement.

### 3/5 — Does NOT sync between devices!!

*2018-09-04, version 6.1*

Great application BUT very difficult to move your data between devices. I’ve been told you have to use the export then import feature to move between, like my iPhone and iPad. 
EVERY other of my apps use either iCloud, Dropbox, WiFi,etc to automatically sync an apps’ data. Please fix the flaw so I can give this paid app more stars. If this is NOT fixed I’d lower my rating to two stars only.

### 5/5 — Excellent app

*2018-06-19, version 6.1*

My cardiologist said it gives him a better measure of my normal BP than having it measured at the clinic, due to the “white coat syndrome “

### 5/5 — Does what it says

*2018-03-23, version 6.1*

Very easy to use even simpler than a spreadsheet, really glad I downloaded it

### 5/5 — This is Brilliant.

*2018-03-18, version 6.1*

An Easy to  use Stress Free App.
Simple to record the all the information you need for any future appointments. 
Quick and simple to view the charts, looks professional too.

### 5/5 — Bcflyfisherman

*2018-02-22, version 6.1*

App seams to work very well.  I will use basic for a while longer and probably buy the premium version

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2018-01-08, version 6.1*

This app is great. I can set reminders to take BP and also a reminder to take my meds. It is easy to print to take to the doctor with you.

### 5/5 — Engineer

*2017-05-06, version 5.2.1*

Great App!

### 5/5 — Great App

*2016-12-18, version 5.2.1*

This app is very easy to use. So simple to scroll the previous entry to create the new entry. It only takes a few seconds. The report function is perfect, customizable, so you only have to include the info you need. The note function is great, allows me to enter R or L when I switch arms, or some other pertinent note that will help in later analysis. The notes show concisely on the report and add nothing to the overall length of the report. I have the free app, so I don't know what advantages the more expensive app provides.

### 2/5 — Does not synch with the iPhone version

*2016-10-26, version 5.2.1*

It looks great. I've been using. The iPhone version for quite a while, but if there is no syncing between apps, I will trash this one.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Sorry excuse for an app

*2018-01-18, version 6.1*

BP records are important and they try to coerce you into buying the app by not disclosing a time/data limitation built into the free/ad version. Now I would not buy it no matter how good it appeared. Choose another BP app from an outfit with hopefully more integrity.

### 1/5 — Not so much

*2016-03-13, version 4.3.1*

Downloaded free version, entered profile data and three readings. Liked it. Upgraded to paid version. Software on new one is confused. Won't let me enter inches data in new profile, now shows two profiles. The desktop icons do not indicate what version they are. One has a red line, one a green line, with no explanation. No way to tell version in the app itself. If it can print, it does not provide the usual icons which lead to printing. We need a chart to take to our physicians, guys! This app shows promise, but needs more work!

### 1/5 — Limited adware

*2015-12-08, version 4.3.1*

They let you get 50 entries then suddenly tell you you need to upgrade to the paid version.

I'll be making my own with google forms, thank you.

### 1/5 — Horrible

*2015-09-28, version 4.2*

Only lets you input 50 readings.  Use BPmonitor instead.

### 1/5 — Ok, but graph displays are poor. Also you have to buy the app twice to enable iPad & iPhone.

*2015-09-01, version 4.2*

Wanted to keep a record of blood pressures on something other than a spread sheet. Tried this app. It's ok.  A lot of work and effort has gone into this app. However, There are a few problems. Disappointed that you have to buy the same app twice to enable use on the both iPad and iPhone. There is a very large window to display recent data entry, but find the display window for graphs far too small to be much use. Would be good if you had the option to switch the display around. Would like to see a warning light as the data is entered ie red/yellow/green for instant information as to blood pressure status. After trying out several blood pressure recording get apps I found another app iBP to be the best because it was easy to use and had all the features I was looking for and works on both the iPad & iPhone.

### 1/5 — Can only input 50 readings!

*2015-08-06, version 4.2*

This app is okay to use, but it will only let you input 50 readings.

### 1/5 — Useless

*2014-12-09, version 3.4*

Will not allow me to change the date

### 1/5 — Won't even let me try it, fail

*2014-11-05, version 3.4*

Every time I tried to do anything with this app it said I needed to add something else first. I attempted to set up a profile and correctly entered all the requested information (though I'm bothered as to why the developers want my phone number). Anyway, entering my iCloud email address I got an error message that it was not valid. I tried every email address I have, same results. So I could not go any further and my only option was to contact the developer. This is what I sent: 

Model: iPad5,3
Version: 8.1
App: 3.4
Feedback here:

I'm trying to set up a profile but it keeps telling me "not a valid email." I've used this address and several others, to no avail. Since I can't use it, I will delete until fixed. Will leave same review since one was requested.
Sent from my iPad

All the pertinent information was already gathered for the email. If the problem is fixed, I will update this. Until then I'm deleting the app as useless. Too bad as it seemed promising and I actually need something like this.

### 1/5 — Rubbish

*2014-11-03, version 3.4*

To get unreliable

### 1/5 — No mention of adverts

*2013-03-21, version 1.5*

Was disappointed to find ads given that screens don't show any and words don't mention. Understandable for free perhaps but would not have wasted my time downloading had I known.

### 5/5 — Fabulous

*2023-11-27, version 9.0*

Great little app and the free section is all I need. My Dr. loves the printouts.

### 5/5 — My doctor loves this app

*2022-06-06, version 8.0*

I keep track whenever I have my BP taken and this keeps a record of it that my dr can see when I go into her offfice. She can adjust my meds accordingly. So easy to use.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2020-10-08, version 7.2*

I love this app, it is very easy to use, and is great for keeping a list of my blood pressure report.  Very easy to create report to being to physician.

### 5/5 — More than fantastic

*2020-02-16, version 7.1.1*

Best App that I have had !! Life saver

### 5/5 — Easy to Use great support

*2019-07-10, version 7.1*

Have only been using for a few days but does what I need showing the readings in various forms and averaging them. I had a query on the operation of it and emailed them and got a quick response which was great and unusual for a free app.
.

### 5/5 — Easy to use, informative, love the whole application.

*2019-07-08, version 7.1*

Gives me everything I look for in the recording of the history of my blood pressure, heart rate and weight. Love the graphics of your ongoing inputs versus your objectives and flexibility you can bring to time frames. Adverts with free version a bit of a pain but you can remove them through settings temporarily by listening to their advert content.

### 5/5 — Poor French translation; mais excellente et facile.

*2019-06-10, version 7.0*

For the application 5/5
Elle fait ce qu’elle devrait et le fait bien, très facile malgré certaines traductions...étrangement ridicules.

### 5/5 — More than Brillaint

*2019-03-13, version 7.0*

I say this because having used this app for 4 months and by sending weekly and monthly reports to our doctor all multiple readings taken each day. Not only did I begin to understand the relevance of BP readings but more importantly how the presentation of taken readings could be better presented in terms of both graphs and information on the pdf reports. I asked for Maxwells help in making these changes and within no small measure they responded and I have just received the updated app and it is doing exactly what our doctors wished to see. Especially the trend lines and ability to have this information across all their standard period defaults including custom period. This app is the perfect support for anyone taking daily readings and sharing with your doctor. Thank you Maxwell Software Better than Brilliant App 😀

### 5/5 — РEters
