Simple & effective

This is so simple to use & if all you want is your breathing rate or heart rate, this does the trick. You can get either the average over a minute or just wait a few seconds if you don't need the average value.
Waste of money

I purchased this app this morning and just deleted it. Does not work as advertised. You can get better results using a timer. Don't waste your money on this. I am glad I only wasted 99 cents. Disappointing app! I wanted to rate it as zero but not able to.
Works well!

Thanks -great idea and just what I needed to track fetal heart rate with my stethoscope - i like the tapping instead of counting.
Very nice

I'm a medic student and EMT and I use this app every shift I work. It is simple yet efficient and much faster then you think. I've tested it and it's accurate after 5 taps.
Effective and efficient!

I use this app primarily for it's RPM function. Measuring a patient's respiratory rate can be tricky-- in order to get an accurate reading, the patient must usually be unaware that his or his breathing is being observed. This app provides a discreet and reliable reading in as few as 5 respirations (as long as the patient's breathing is uninterrupted and fairly consistent.) It has really helped to streamline my vital sign measurements, and I am thankful to have this handy tool in my pocket! My only wish is that the app would be updated to fit the newer iPhone screens. This is purely a matter of aesthetics, however, and does not affect the app's functionality at all.
