Now I have this blood pressure monitor device that doesn’t work without a logged in app and is a paperweight. I’m lucky I never invested into their ecosystem of health products. Lesson is no matter how popular a brand is, there is no guarantee they will be around. I’ve lost all my health data and there is no way to get it back.

      It’s the only reason my 1500$ CPAP still works. Company discontinued it but I fixed it up so it still works. And it had a hard 5 year replacement rule, ie it’s designed to software block you from using the machine after 5 years and get a new one.
