Consumer impact summary
Now that the company has gone bankrupt and stopped hosting the API services required for the mobile applications to authenticate, users are no longer able to use the devices they bought.
A workaround for users to use their QardioARM device has been developed https://github.com/dwardu-ltd/offline-qardio-app-ios, it is released on the Apple App Store as OfflineQArm.
On Android there are a number of paywalled options. MakerMeld has made an Android app called MyPressure! Available in the play store. The app exports locally with no cloud link unless you opt in to authorize your Health Connect account. Currently only works with QardioARM
