Blood pressure and pulse rates are the most important information needed for wellness and fitness programs -- thus the feature should be set to ON by default rather than require the user to discover by trial and error that it is available in this program.
But this feature is in need of serious improvement:
1. PULSE RATE NOT SHOWN -- A Blood Pressure "New Entry" requests both BP and Pulse input, however, it appears that there is no way to display graphically a user's pulse rate. Similar PC programs graph pulse rates in the same view as BP but a separate pulse graph would be OK.
2. MULTIPLE BP AND PULSE ENTRIES FOR SAME DATE ARE NOT GRAPHED -- A good wellness and fitness program should not only allow input of BP and pulse rates throughout the day (this program does) but should also graph all entries (this program does not). If it is a question of screen clutter, allow the user to select between showing a "daily average" or "all entries."
SUGGESTED RESEARCH -- Several years ago I found an excellent freeware Windows program simply called "Health Software" version 3.0.251 (2004). HEALTH.EXE is a software cluster, which monitors and graphs your Blood Glucose levels, Blood Pressure (Systolic, Diastolic, and Pulse) levels, Weight, and A1c Results. The software is extremely easy to use. The software includes overall data statistics and graph analysis. The graph can be shown as a line or a bar graph. In the near future, I plan to add a histogram to the graph. Presently, the graph analysis (located in the upper right side of the page) shows something relating to a histogram, but in numerical form. All data has to be entered by you via the keyboard. This software is not designed to be used in conjunction with any particular BG or BP monitor.
