Kenek Edge

The Kenek Edge pulse oximeter app measures blood oxygen and heart rate using a hospital-grade finger sensor attached to your mobile phone or tablet. It generates an audio signal that drives the sensor, shining a non-invasive light through your finger, and receiving a signal back. The app continuously analyzes the signal and produces vital signs measurements that are highly accurate and reliable.

The Kenek Edge pulse oximeter is designed to help you to achieve your health and wellness goals. It can continuously record and save measurements once-per-second for up to 24 hours at a time. Recorded data can be exported via email in CSV format. Kenek Edge is integrated with HealthKit so you can optionally save and share your Heart Rate and Oxygen Saturation data with other apps.

The Kenek Edge pulse oximeter is a fast and accurate way to measure pulse rate and blood oxygen saturation (SpO2%). Without a sensor, the full-feature app operates with simulated data, allowing users explore all its features.

Measurements:
SpO2 % - the percentage of functional arterial blood oxygen saturation
Heart Rate - the number of heart beats per minute

Reviews

Works exactly like the ones in a hospital
jerryg1973

I LOVE this pulse ox O2 sensor!!! As for the negative review someone gave, that is not a fault of the sensor, but it is the users fault for not keeping his instructions, or for not bothering to look the instructions up online. But If I recall, it’s pretty straight forward and anyone familiar with their phone could figure it out. On to the review: I bought this to keep track of my O2 levels due to sleep apnea. Works EXACTLY like the ones in the hospital, and even feels of the same construction quality. This is the first time I have been impressed with the quality of a medical device and it’s function I’ve ordered online. This Pulse Ox monitor could even be used to track your O2 levels while you sleep, to determine if your O2 levels fall below a safe point, which indicates sleep apnea if the readings drop significantly from your daytime measurements. To use it at night as an occasional monitor, just get one of the athletic armband phone holders, and put it on your arm with phone in it, this way phone stays with you as you toss and turn (I have seen athletic phone arm bands for $1 at Dollar Tree stores). Run cord down your forearm to the monitor on your finger, then wrap a rubber band or medical tape around sensor to hold it in place all night (the clip is strong, but even during sleep studies at a study center for sleep apnea, they put tape around sensor so you don’t knock it off at night). This is definitely an excellent quality and functioning device. I believe it can link with the health app on your iPhone also, to automatically log the data for easy tracking if you like to compile all of your data in one place.


As advertised

It does precisely what their materials suggest. It’s a cheap solution to record continual pulse oximetry. So far it’s quite accurate and works flawlessly. After lots of searching, I wasn’t able to find anything else that records continually, for example overnight, that wasn’t significantly more expensive. It does connect with healthkit, but will just send a single data point, not the full continual data. It’s easy to email yourself the full data file from the app (.csv), then drag it onto their webpage to show a very nice visualization. My only gripe would be that it would be nice if they could put similar functionality into the app itself and share more than a single point with healthkit. As suggested in the Amazon reviews, get the extension cord those links recommend.


No way to conveniently transfer recorded data
Audio Pioneer

The device works fine but requires email to transfer recordings out for analysis. Apparently Outlook client does not work with the app, because even though it appears that an email is sent, it never arrives. Why not allow the file to be saved to any of the popular cloud storage locations?


iPhone Plug Issue
JoesyWhales

If you have a case on your iPhone or iPad the plug on the finger monitor is too large to fit in the jack without removing the case. Also doesn't show actual heart beats and strength of the beats to see if your heart beat is irregular


Needs a separate apparatus

It's not what I'm looking for, as I was hoping to find something that uses the flash


Cannot register

Says register servers are down. I bought the accessory and now can't use it

activated this for my iPhone 5. Have to activate again for iPhone 6 and cannot find packaging. device useless, waste of money. No link to realtime help.


Great app, device & support!!
Hendogail

Set up easy and it worked fine first night of monitoring. I had a problem getting my data report emailed to myself but it was a problem with my phone and not the app. None-the-less, Michael at Tech Support was a patient, knowledgeable and friendly helper!!! Thanks!!!


Kenek Edge and app

This unit works extremely well. It does everything it claims it will do. Including 24 hour recording. Their support and service is also very good. You must read all the info on how to set it up. The app has instructions at bottom, see the customer service tab. You need to turn down the screen brightness when your recording for extended time periods. This unit has been improved considerably since it first came out. Another point, I suggests that you use a sport arm strap if you want to record for long periods at night. You can also use a piece of medical paper tape to keep the sensor in place if you turn and toss while you are sleeping like I do. It is amazing what this unit will do for it’s low cost. On the iPhone 7 and up, you will need a audio lightning adaptor to plug the sensor into.
