The Masimo Personal Health App is only for use with the MightySat fingertip pulse oximeter. This App (together with the MightySat fingertip pulse oximeter) allows you to non-invasively measure blood oxygen saturation, pulse rate, and perfusion index. MightySat provides additional parameters which include respiration rate and pleth variability index. The compatible Masimo devices are available for sale in select countries only. Visit us at www.MasimoPersonalHealth.com (in the United States) or at www.MasimoPersonalHealth.co.uk (outside the United States) to find out how you may purchase the MightySat device.
MightySat uses Signal Extraction Technology (SET®) to provide accurate oxygen saturation and pulse rate measurements when other pulse oximeters fail, such as during movement and low blood flow.
Measurements:
Oxygen Saturation (SpO2) - the oxygen level in the arterial blood to indicate changes due to heart or lung function, oxygen use by your body, or altitude
Pulse Rate (PR) - the number of pulses per minute to indicate overall fitness as well as exertion levels at a particular moment in time
Perfusion Index (Pi) - the strength of blood flow to your finger to indicate changes in blood circulation
Respiration Rate (RRp) - the number of breaths you are taking each minute to indicate how well your heart and lungs are functioning as well as how quickly you can recover after exercise.
Pleth Variability Index (PVi) - the variation in perfusion index over your breathing cycle. Changes in PVi may indicate changes in hydration, breathing effort, perfusion, or other factors. ¹ ² ³ *
* It is suggested to measure PVi in the same body position, remaining still and without talking, at the same breathing rate and depth of breathing, until you see a high confidence PVi value (displayed value is bright, not dim). An increase in PVi may indicate a decreased level of hydration, increased breathing effort, or other factors. A decrease in PVi may indicate an increased level of hydration, decreased breathing effort, or other factors. Multiple factors other than hydration and breathing effort can affect PVi, including breathing rate, depth of breathing, body position, body movement, vascular tone, blood flow to the finger (perfusion index), normal variation within a short-term monitoring session, waveform shape changes, and/or cardiovascular abnormalities.

Latest reviews of Masimo Personal Health app for iPhone and iPad
No matter how much I increased the buffer size of data history even to max of 12 hours, the latest app can only store and display the last one hour. Appa data history is broken.
Totally useless without landscape mode.
One of the most usefull application i have seen, thanks ;) Where can we buy the cable?
The Fingertip Best Pulse Oximeter!!!
Are you supposed to have something that connects to your phone to make this work? Nothing is mentioned in the description. That info seems rather important.
