iThermonitor Reviews

The idea of this is phenomenal. But putting an idea into practice is another thing.

Using 3 thermometers to just get an accurate baseline temp against this one and it's a full 2 degrees less than the other two thermometers. Concerning and disappointing at the same time.

iThermonitor never stays connected. I have to manually refresh iThermonitor to see what my child's temp has been running. You would think for as much as I spent on it that it would work. It would be great to get alerts and not just refresh and see your baby's temp was really high through the nigh... Show more t.

I get that it needs a buffer connection. It’s a small device powered by a battery. So I keep an iPad in the room so that the device can stay connected. We are supposed to be able to mirror the temperature on our phones. However, this doesn’t happen. You can log in and be on the right profile but it... Show more doesn’t matter. There is no button to make iThermonitor check to see if a device is connected, so there is no way to get the remote device to mirror the data being uploaded to iThermonitor . This issue isn’t even covered in any FAQs or manual, it just says the remote apps will mirror data. Nothing about what to do if it doesn’t. I really really wanted this to work, but for now it’s just a regular thermometer.

The temperature reading is about 2 degrees too low. It is also very dependent upon where it is placed so there is a variance of as much as a degree based upon placement. As others have said, the patch barely holds it on and it will fall off after a few hours which makes the historical trend useless... Show more . In addition to the physical problems, iThermonitor is buggy and the help text is often wrong.

I like the idea of this device but it is not well designed nor well implemented.

I guess people who are blind or visually impaired don’t have a body temperature. I guess we do not get sick at all. Because iThermonitor has no accessibility in it whatsoever. Voiceover does not work with iThermonitor. Of course I get iThermonitor zero stars if I could it may be great for the si... Show more de of world. It is poorly made for the blind world. I know we’re garbage. Nobody gives a second thought about people like us.

Seriously???! iThermonitor won't even stay open. It crashes no matter what I do 2 seconds after I sign in. Tried on iPhone 6 and 7 with iOS 10. It worked fine 2 months ago.

In the fall, winter, and spring, I keep the temperature in the house at between 60°F and 66°F due to the need to raise the medical heating pad the alleviated back issues. I sometimes have that part as hot as 120°F for short periods and between 100°F and 115°F at all other times. It is used 24/7. ... Show more r>
I set the alert threshold to 60 minutes and still get alert after alert. I finally turned off alerts as that function is useless.

Fix the apps inability to use added keyboards.

Fix the apps ignoring that I turned off alert.

Fix notifications. App continues to send alerts, even after restarting iThermonitor after turning off alerts.

Fix keyboard inability to delete by character unless you placed cursor at where you want the deletion to start.

The best thing about iThermonitor is that it monitors my temperature but the interface and operation is less than expected in mHealth, mWear products.

For $50 this device could be smaller or the patches could be bigger. The patch barely fits over the device so it barley stays on my baby's skin. I have to fix and adjust it every time I pick him up. It lifts and it folds so I had to use 3 patches in one day. iThermonitor itself kept changing his b...

Constantly have to reconnect to the device and when I do it makes me select the device except pushing on the device does nothing to go to the next screen. I have to fully close iThermonitor 3-4 times until it decides to work.

I thought this allowed me to use my new Apple Watch to read my temperature (it was recommended through its app), but it does not. You must buy their thermometer and then use iThermonitor to read the temperature.

I can't see the times in white with the very blue background. Either make larger for those of us who don't have 20/20 vision or add a zoom in option (using iPhone.) Also if the chart could be landscape would be nice. And the "night" tab should be a "day" option too because my baby girl has been run... Show more ning fevers day and night even with tylenol. I dis take her to doctor and she has a virus. iThermonitor was hard to find. I was looking for "thermonitor" and "frida baby" etc. It Wasn't on the box as to what app to sync with. I Looked at the picture on the box and the instructions and compared it to the apps search result. It is "ithermometer". I like the device overall and it did alarm as I had set it too when her temperature started going up during the early hours. Ps- I tried to leave feedback on your app under "feedback" tab and it said "Failed. Please try again."

The watch app doesn’t work.

I’ve had iThermonitor setup on my phone, it’s been working well for days, but when I run the watch app, all it says is “Log in on your iPhone”.

I created my account and activated it through my email, but the watch app still only shows the same message.

It’d also be nice if the watch app supported a complication.

I have had this thermometer since baby was born and she is now almost two. I don't know how people don't love this more. I recommend it to all my Mommy friends. Last night her fever spiked to 103 but i wasn't worried because iThermonitor woke me up and warned me when she hit 102(i set the alarm at... Show more that degree). Got up gave her meds and then watched how her fever went back down. She stayed home with dad and i felt so calm and reassured while at work, knowing that i can log on from my phone and see what the thermometer was reading at home on dad's phone.

iThermonitor works great for the functions that it offers.
The hardware is slim,
Here are the shortcomings:
* export pictures instead than actual data (eg text file)
* Fonts are way too small to read (iPad) particularly for White over ligh blue color.

Hardware:
The led that indicates the status of the device is blue for everything so you are left to guess “did I press more or less than two seconds” “was a long press or not” simply using different colors would address this conundrum of device state

I’m confused why others are having such a hard time. There are many reasons why you have to stay close to baby while monitoring their temperature. First is that the device itself is using a very low energy blue tooth technology as to save battery life and not burn your child. (I personally stay clo... Show more se to my child anyways while they are sick) Second make sure you are reading your directions properly on where to place the device, and hold adhesive patch against skin for 8 minutes. I have a wiggly almost two year old so I add a little bit of medical tape since he can pick at the patch. It’s definitely not a perfect app, but I love being able to be woken up by an alarm when my son’s temperature spikes to 104 like it did last month. Please read your device’s directions well and you should have minimal problems.

I had purchased this device on sale & had my doubts of it not working correctly due to previous monitors I have purchased. This is extremely easy to use & while my son ended up hospitalized, the doctors actually compared this device to the hospital thermometer that my son kept pulling off. ... Show more It was accurate EVERY time. It was not bothersome for my son as he really didn’t remember it was under his arm. Of course, I am that mom that stays as close to my children as possible...especially if they are sick. Therefore I had zero troubles for it becoming unconnected to my phone. Use of this was tremendously easier than waking my son that had 6 surgeries when he was finally resting peacefully. My mind was at ease to know I could just look at my phone at any given second to check on his fever. There is also an awesome alert setting that will allow you to be notified if temp drops too low or too high (per your discretion) if you are not a helicopter parent like me that just left it on the screen. Thanks so much for helping to assist me with saving my son’s life. We knew the infection was present when his temps started rising. If you read the directions, there is no way to go wrong!

I find it hard to pay $50 for this device, but it is certainly worth the $10 I paid at goodwill. I definitely recommend

Seriously a great app. Refined. Simple yet filled with useful information. Don’t know why people rate it so low. Use it for my newborn son and I’m happy to know ahead of time if I need to add or remove blankets.

I’m also confused why this doesn’t have a better rating. The only thing I can think of is the sticky things don’t stick very well sometimes so we just use hospital tape so we know it’s secure. Anyway, I have two kiddos that get Febrile Seizures (seizures due to a high fever) and this truly helps me... Show more get meds in them quick enough and has saved us from dealing with more seizures. I have it set to alert me at 100 degrees so I have time to get meds in them because they spike so quickly! I also love how I can check on them from my bed! Love love love this product!

If your baby is not sleeping in your room, you need a device dedicated to remain within the 10’ range. If I leave the room, I lose connection and I have to go downstairs to reconnect in the middle of the night, rendering the device useless. The idea is great, but the implementation needs work.

This product in the right hands is a life savior.
