Once one comes up I can’t figure out how to get out of it and back to the app. I close the app and restart. You are just entering number. This isn’t complex. I am going to find something else with less intrusive ads. ### 3/5 — Ads *2025-11-25, version 1.18* Way way too many ads. ### 3/5 — Ok but... *2025-08-01, version 1.17* It replaces a pen and paper accept paper doesn't bombard you with nonsense ads to shake you down for a monthly subscription. It's such nonsense I'll probably make my own app. ### 3/5 — The ads take too long *2025-07-31, version 1.17* The app does just what it’s supposed to do but the ads …. take so long and I’m never quite sure it saved the last reading. ### 2/5 — Add *2025-07-18, version 1.17* Too many ads ### 2/5 — It worked until it didn’t. *2025-06-21, version 1.16* My BP Journal was a simple, easy to use app that worked for about three months with no issue. Then one day it just would not open and I lost all the data that was stored. I reinstalled it but was unable to recover the data. Will likely look for another app that’s more trustworthy. ### 4/5 — Works but… *2025-05-10, version 1.15* App does what it says but there are issues with text size and cutting numbers off. You also have to close out the app each time or the date and time will be wrong on your entry. Need to make those fixes and will get 5 stars. ### 3/5 — to many add *2024-08-07, version 1.14* good all good features to many adds no need ### 4/5 — Great but.. *2024-06-24, version 1.13* Love the ease of putting my daily info in. I payed for the subscription , but I am disappointed that the analysis function isn’t working. All I get is a message saying “coming soon”. Does that just mean there isn’t enough data that I entered yet or that it isn’t available? Part of the reason I chose this app was for that function. Other than that, it does what it’s supposed to. ### 1/5 — You ruined it! *2024-05-19, version 1.13* This used to be the most wonderful app for recording B/P. It was clean and simple, and easy to use. Then I made the mistake to update it! Now every time I try to enter my B/P results I’m bombarded with ads of loud obnoxious games that are almost impossible to turn off! I’d give it no stars if I could. I’m deleting it now. What a shame, what a waste! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Horrible app *2026-06-03, version 1.19* I didn’t mind this app at first. It allowed me to keep track of my blood pressures. But the ads are unbearable. The banner ads at the top or bottom of the screen are tolerable. But every time you add a new reading or edit an old one, you immediately are bombarded with a full screen app that makes it difficult to close. Some of the other reviews mentioned users trying to add a new reading and it opened the last one. This is still happening despite the developer saying that these were fixed 4 years ago. It seems pretty ridiculous that I have to double check that a “new” reading is truly a new reading. ### 1/5 — Ads *2026-01-01, version 1.18* Way too many ads all the time. I can manage a couple of ads a day, but not every time I use the app. ### 1/5 — Permanent ads *2025-11-18, version 1.17* You can’t close the ads. You have to close the app and reopen it after each reading. ### 1/5 — Obnoxious ads *2025-11-18, version 1.17* After making an entry an add appears which cannot be removed. Have to power cycle to get back to readings. ### 1/5 — All Ads *2025-07-31, version 1.17* You enter your BP and you get a one minute ad before it saves. This ap is predatory. It’s just a money maker for the creators who put in the minimum effort into the UI. Run the other way. ### 1/5 — Won’t open *2025-06-25, version 1.17* The app will not open. It just disappears. This is the second time this has happened and I had to delete the app and reinstall. Lost all my readings. Now it’s happened again. Find a different app ### 1/5 — Keeps Crashing *2025-06-23, version 1.17* Was thoroughly enjoying the app, however over the past several days have been unable to open the app to use it. It crashes and closes out each time. Frustrating as I’m unable to view my data that I’ve been inputting. ### 1/5 — Excessive, invasive ads *2025-01-20, version 1.15* Excessive and invasive ads that are difficult to navigate without opening the App Store or web pages when trying to close them. When you go to add a new reading, it often asks me to edit the last reading instead of opening a new entry. Poor design. ### 1/5 — Has the wrong date and times! *2024-09-11, version 1.14* I liked this app because it is pretty basic and doesn’t have a whole lot of bells and whistles. You download it and start using it. You also don’t fill out anything and then are given the option to subscribe to something. You don’t have to enter email address. The ads are kind of annoying, though. But the past several days when I am logging a reading, it will have the wrong time. Also I noticed that it has the wrong date in the log. It says “today “but really it’s the next day.. after Monday this week, every day is labeled as “today.” so I just have to be really mindful to make sure the correct date and time is on there… I don’t know if there’s a glitch or what but that’s why I’m giving it 3 stars. It’s almost annoying. I hope they see this and fix it! I tried looking for a place to email them but there is nothing in the app. ### 1/5 — Date issue *2024-09-02, version 1.14* I downloaded this yesterday and used it twice and once more today. All three readings show ‘today’ for the date. The time is correct. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Print *2025-10-02, version 1.17* A good app but the description said you could print from the app. I don’t see this anywhere. Also don’t know how many readings it will keep. ### 5/5 — Quick & Easy *2025-09-25, version 1.17* Nice journal to log in Blood Pressure readings. I like the ability to add notes ### 5/5 — Burke, *2025-08-21, version 1.17* So far this has worked amazing. Dr. Ask for a check every day and I do this every morning and when I have to be more physical. So far so good. ### 5/5 — Tracking Blood Pressure *2025-08-19, version 1.17* Just took my first reading and documenting it in the app was very easy. ### 5/5 — Free app for BP *2025-07-07, version 1.17* can log BP with pulse. And add notes in each entry ### 5/5 — Mr *2024-07-08, version 1.13* Very practical and easy to use app ### 5/5 — Great log! *2024-06-06, version 1.13* Really like this log very easy and handy ### 5/5 — My review *2024-05-13, version 1.13* I love this app it runs smoothly, and works greatly. ### 5/5 — Paying app *2024-05-08, version 1.13* When I first started using this app, there were no adds and it was free, now to go add free you have to pay. ### 5/5 — Excellent have recall of previous readings for historic context. Highly recommended! *2023-02-06, version 1.8* I --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
