I gave him a second star for that it could have been damage control, but I appreciated the effort. ### 4/5 — Sacanagem! *2021-11-08* Cancelem essa assinatura! Ao invés de colocar a digital para abrir o App, cobraram uma assinatura! Acabei de instalar! Cancelem! ### 1/5 — В пробной версии нет измерения кислорода *2021-08-18* В пробной версии нет изменения кислорода, в подписке тоже ### 1/5 — Приложение-обманка *2021-08-14* Из описания делается вывод, что приложение умеет и кислород в крови измерять и давление, но оно тупо считает пульс и всё. Остальное нужно вводить самому циферками. Да ещё за деньги. Полная лажа ### 1/5 — CANCELAR ASSINATURA QUE FIZ SEM QUERER. *2021-07-08* Quero cancelar a assinatura pois não quero. Não aceitei nada e não finalizei nada! Quero cancelar a assinatura! ### 1/5 — Мусор *2021-04-27* Приложение мусор 🗑 ### 1/5 — Assinei o tempo grátis, minha assinatura no meu cartão, quero o estorno Por favor *2021-04-19* Quero o estorno da assinatura que eu fiz e ainda no mesmo dia cancelei e não fiZeram o cancelamento ### 1/5 — advogado matheus moreira *2021-03-31* galera denunciem o app por que nao muda nada e eu fiz um teste e coloquei a mão e tirei e continuou o teste de batimentos cardiacos ### 1/5 — Верните деньги! *2021-03-29* Знакомство с приложением стоило мне около 9380 за подписку. Изначально было предложение попробовать 3 дня бесплатно, потом когда подписываешься и открываешь приложение, сразу всплывает меню, которое не дает возможность пользоваться приложением, а сразу нужно выбрать подписку. Вообщем, я то думала, что договорились о том, что 3 дня бесплатно, нажала ок на подписку годовую. И тут «неждан», сразу списание 3890руб и потом 5490р. Но последний платеж не списался, т. .к не достаточно было средств на карте🙈 я в шоке, с давлением теперь сижу. Прошу вернуть мне 3890 рублей и отменить списывание 5490 р ### 1/5 — reembolso *2021-03-28* preciso cancelar uma assinatura que fiz sem querer. ### 1/5 — Misleading *2021-03-12, version 1.0.30* The app makes it appear you can take your pulse ox with the phone. You can only I put your data and track it. ### 2/5 — Charged $12.99 for a ‘free’ trial *2021-03-03, version 1.0.29* Misrepresented ‘free’ trial. Not to mention that even after being charged, I was still unable to measure my blood oxygen levels using my iPhone. ### 1/5 — Quero cancelar *2021-02-21* Nem consegui fazer o primeiro acesso. Super complicado. Da erro inesperado. ### 1/5 — Pulse *2021-02-13, version 1.0.28* I tried it several times. The reading never finished. Glad I didn’t pay for this. Free for 3 days. I’m only keeping it for 10 minutes! ### 1/5 — Списывают деньги просто так!!! *2021-02-13* Установила приложение, сразу удалила и уже три раза списывали деньги с карты по три тысячи!!! ### 1/5 — Not a Pulse Oximeter app *2021-02-01, version 1.0.26* This does only heart rate via camera and flash. Misleading in that it states it is available to keep the information in a diary... I don’t normally do negative reviews. ### 1/5 — Requesting cancellation *2021-01-25, version 1.0.26* Hi! This is a terrible app, I cannot find where to cancel my subscription. Please reply, so I may do be able to cancel. Thank you!! ### 1/5 — Does not measure blood oxygen *2021-01-02, version 1.0.24* Despite what you might think from reading the description, this app does not measure blood oxygen. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Too many ads *2024-03-12, version 1.6.9* Waaayyyy too many ads ### 1/5 — Nao assinem eles nao tem como cancelar *2023-02-21* É um absurdo! Voce se inscreve para testar e nao tem como cancelar, SCAM!!! **Developer response:** Oi! Lamentamos que alguns recursos não tenham atendido às suas expectativas. No entanto, o aplicativo possui recursos gratuitos, como medir o pulso ou manter registros da pressão arterial, dos níveis de oxigênio no sangue e da temperatura corporal. Esperamos que você encontre exatamente aqueles que você gosta e continue usando nosso aplicativo. Tenha um bom dia! ### 1/5 — Scam! Will not allow you to end subscription *2022-04-25, version 1.5.0* Yes Apple does not give you an opportunity to cancel. This is an absolute scam stay away from it and all costs I’m still fighting if you end a subscription ### 1/5 — They want your $$! *2022-03-10, version 1.4.8* There is no way to try this app without authorizing the author to capture $2.99/week after the first “free” week. If you forget to cancel, then you are on the hook. I find this dishonest. ### 1/5 — No clear instructions!!! *2022-02-06, version 1.4.8* No clear directions from within the app. Nowhere did it instruct me to place my fingers on the iPhone camera, even after pressing the plus sign. Nothing happened. Useless. ### 1/5 — даже не пробуйте *2022-01-29* никакой пульсоксиметрии по камере нет, задержите дыхание по их таймеру и скажут оценку насыщения, фейк! про цену подписки на год = 2 проф пульсоксиметра, умолчим ### 1/5 — Cancelar *2022-01-09* Não consigo fazer o cancelamento, não gostei e não me atende! Péssimo atendimento! ### 1/5 — Cuidado *2021-09-01* Não consigo cancelar e acabei de obter o App com versão gratuita mas entrou como assinatura de mais de 200 reais. Não tem como cancelar ### 1/5 — Cancelamento de assinatura *2021-08-27* Alguém conseguiu cancelar? Eu cancelei imediatamente após perceber que não funcionava corretamente e veio a cobrança no cartão! ### 1/5 — Very difficult to unsubscribe and cancel *2021-08-24, version 1.40* App makes you enroll saying there is a free trial but does not allow you to unsubscribe or cancel when it’s not what you expected! Help, I don’t want to pay for an app to that doesn’t do what I expected. How do I cancel ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Heart rate *2023-12-28, version 1.6.9* Best app for your Heart ### 5/5 — Love it! *2021-07-03, version 1.0.37* O love all the features and different tests it has! ### 5/5 — Corazón *2020-12-21, version 1.0.24* Corazón ### 5/5 — Bom *2020-12-12* Exatamente ### 5/5 — Самое лучшее приложение для людей с большой душей *2020-11-19* Был темный пасмурный день, ничего не предвещало беды, и вот мое сердце замерло. В глазах потемнело и я почувствовал что теряю сознание. Но благо в моем телефоне нашлось великолепное приложение, которое мгновенно измеряло частоту моего сердцебиения и подсказало, как себя вести. Вы спасли мою жизнь. Спасибо 🥲🥲🥲 ### 5/5 — العراق *2020-09-17, version 1.0.18* برنامج مفيد جداً وسهل شكراً لخدماتكم ### 5/5 — Liked *2020-07-05, version 1.0.12* It is very beautiful app ### 5/5 — 10/10 *2020-06-29, version 1.0.12* Never glitches and does what it supposed to do. I'd recommend it ### 5/5 — Great job *2020-06-08, version 1.0.9* Very accurate heart rate monitor. I measured my pulse the old fashioned way and again with this app and the result was spot-on. Totally recommended. ### 5/5 — Tnx *2020-06-05, version 1.0.9* To be sure the app was working right I tested it measuring my heart rate with a blood pressure machine at the drugstore while using the app at the same time and there was almost no difference between the two. Now I use it all the time. Thank you! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
