Test rating "VERY GOOD" for smooth blood pressure control thanks to Beurer "Scan & Save" function

Health apps are becoming increasingly popular for documenting certain vital signs such as blood pressure, body weight, activity and sleep quality. The app "beurer HealthManager Pro" offers the possibility of monitoring your own health stats by collating measurement data from a range of devices. Experts from ETM TESTMAGAZIN recently evaluated the app's newest tool – the "Scan & Save" function – in an individual online test and have rated it "VERY GOOD". They particularly highlighted how easy it makes blood pressure recording – even when using a blood pressure monitor not equipped with smart automatic data transfer.


High blood pressure is the number one risk factor for cardiovascular illness. It is a diagnosis that hits many people unexpectedly, because hypertension is often gradual and rarely manifests itself through specific symptoms. But given that it can lead to stroke or heart attack if untreated, regular blood pressure monitoring is recommended. Health specialist Beurer offers a wide range of blood pressure monitors. Many of them are compatible with "beurer HealthManager Pro" and can automatically transfer measured values to the app via Bluetooth®.

"Scan & Save": Digital blood pressure journal for every user
The new "Scan & Save" function in the app now offers the advantage of digitally storing measured values from all Beurer blood pressure monitors – including products that do not have Bluetooth® transfer capability. The user simply needs to select the appropriate Beurer blood pressure monitor in the app after taking a blood pressure measurement, and then use the smartphone camera to scan the device display in the indicated app window. The values are automatically detected and saved. This eliminates the need to enter values manually. What's more, all saved data can be easily exported from the app and then sent to a treating physician.

The "Scan & Save" function was judged to be all-round impressive in terms of operation, performance and design. The experts from ETM TESTMAGAZIN praised the quick and easy method for digital blood pressure recording, which is extremely valuable for regular blood pressure monitoring. They additionally noted that the scanning process is self-explanatory and the measured values are reliably and quickly visible in the app. "Scan & Save" also scored points for its clear and user-friendly graphic design and intuitive handling.
