Not posted in a good few month as my af has been non existent until now after my ablation couple year ago. Had a couple of episodes leading to hospital overnight. Had an appointment with my cardiologist who said "we knew this would happen eventually". He has advised me to get a Snap Ecg monitor off Amazon as we both know how difficult episodes are to catch and I can get them recorded there and then. I just wondered if anyone had one of these and how good they are before I purchase one.

I use a Kardia device, which works really well. Not sure how it differs from the Snap. I have my eye on the new 6 lead Kardia that just came out

I also recommend the Kardia, I got mine from amazon. Check the website to see if the app works with your phone though, I bought a 6th gen iPod touch to use it with and keep both always with me in a homemade case. The iPod touch cost a lot more than the kardia but a lot less than a new phone and I use it constantly, more so than my ancient phone....
