iPulse - Check Heart Rate & BP

gamed rating

The app implies it measures blood pressure and sugar from the phone, but reviews say it only reads pulse and everything else is manual. People get pulled into a yearly subscription with a surprise charge and no clear cancellation. Apple Watch and Health do the same for free.
