Step-by-Step: How to Use Our Bluetooth Cuff

1. Set Up the Monitor

Unbox your device and insert four AAA batteries or connect it using the wall adapter. Make sure your phone’s Bluetooth is enabled.

2. Download the Compatible App

Download the Balance Health App from the App Store (iOS) or Google Play (Android). This free app is designed to pair seamlessly with your Greater Goods BP monitor and allows you to save, track, and review readings over time.

3. Pair Your Device

Follow the on-screen instructions in the app to pair your BP monitor. Once synced, your readings will be saved and displayed directly on your phone.

4. Position the Cuff Correctly

  • Wrap the easy-to-use blood pressure cuff around your bare upper arm, about an inch above the elbow.

  • Make sure the tube runs down the center of your arm.

  • Rest your arm on a table, palm up, with the cuff at heart level.

5. Sit Calmly and Begin

Relax for 5 minutes before taking a reading. Press the start button and stay still. The monitor will automatically inflate the cuff, take your measurement, and display the results clearly on the screen.

6. View and Track Your Results

The memory storage BP monitor stores your readings by date and time. You can view averages, compare morning/evening numbers, and access trends through the Balance Health App.

Pro Tips for Best Results

Troubleshooting Common Issues
