    An expensive novelty! A great paper weight!

    This device can measure and track normal readings. It cannot detect anything out of the ordinary. It records high readings as normal. So, you never know when you are experiencing something that requires further medical attention. If you have heart problems, stay away from this device; it could cost you your life or result in a stroke. I went into atrial fibrillation with an irregular heart rate of 110. The Withings device registered 48. Fortunately, I have another device that is more accurate in its readings. I kept comparing readings to my disappointment with the Withings. I now use it as a paper weight. With my medical condition I can't afford to trust it.

    Stupid cord length

    This product is hardly usable as the cord length is about a foot. How are you supposed to let your i-device rest and not hold if you are taking your blood pressure at the same time?

    Cord needs to be at least 2 to 3 feet long so you can rest the i-device and sit down at a table at the same time.

    Very poor design.

    It is only for 9 to 17 inch arms. Bigger arms will generate high and erroneous readings. No customer service number to call in Owner's manual. It is being returned :( anyone konw of a BP monitor that is WIFI capable with a large cuff?

    Close but no cigar

    The unit itself seems good enough... But the unit is kinda useless without the software. I bought my unit shortly after Christmas 2012. On the 30th the software kept crashing. This rather embarrassing "bug" was documented on the WiThing website. A bug? Really strange "bug" if you ask me... More likely an Easter egg from a disgruntled programmer. TRY SOME QA (Quality Assurance) -sheesh. Now, the app is saying I need to gain 62kg... Another "bug"....

    Hardware is just more junk without the software. grrrrr. Idiots
