OMRON connect

Got the Omron Bronze 5150 and downloaded this app. Synced everything up and ran my first test. Went well. Curious, checked my BP 7 hours later and keeps saying no new readings to sync even though the machine is showing 2. Had to manually enter the data. Auto sync is on. Unpaired and repaired, no luck. Hopefully the kinks get worked out. Nice machine, same the app doesn’t work well.

Even my cardiologist is impressed with the accuracy of this unit! Very reliable and downloading the readings is so helpful!

Regularly loses Bluetooth pairing, requests to un-pair and re-pair, but when re-pairing, all not yet transferred data (still in the device) gets lost. Result: every couple of weeks, I lose several days of data… My doctor always asks me to bring my blood pressure history, showing gaps with missing data and asks why? I need to say: « sorry I am using an Omron device and their app is crappy and loses data ». Not really professional! Too bad, because the Hardware is good, readings very stable and reliable. The problem is the software, maybe they need to hire more experienced software engineers able to thing about how to handle unexpected conditions, rather than just resetting and losing data!

Isn’t as user friendly as many health apps are these days. Has sync errors with machine.

It will not pair with older units (bp786). I suspect they want ppl to buy new devices.

My only comment is that I would like to be able to delete specific readings. There is not an option for this.

Every time I get an update it stops working. Deleted the app several times in the past to get it to work. No luck this time. Going to find another product. Throwing this one in the trash.

The app rarely automatically transfers data. The BMI has been broken for a year (it looks fixed now but it didn’t go back and correct all the old ones from when they couldn’t figure out how to calculate it properly). Almost every time I use this I have to re-pair my devices.

La app no funciona bien para México y no se puede sincronizar con Bluetooth. Y Omron no da soporte para arreglar este problema en México. Es una estafa Omron con esta app y la báscula en México

Forget it. Too mercenary.
