When a blood pressure tracker landed on my desk for the first time, I was immediately intrigued. I’d recently been testing the Whoop MG, a new version of the fitness tracker that can be paired with a blood pressure cuff, and I’d also seen Apple roll out new blood pressure monitoring features for its watch.
It feels like the home medical testing boom has found a comfortable bedfellow in wearables. But I wondered, as someone whose blood pressure tends to run low, could a device like this actually be useful for me?
