Understanding the devices page

This page allows you to connect your record to other devices (e.g. a fitness tracker, a blood pressure monitor).

How do I link a device to my account?

Click 'Add Device’. Once you have selected the device, follow the instructions to link the device with your PKB account. If you are connecting an Omron device, please see the below section. You will need to make the link from the Omron Connect app, not from PKB.

Once you have linked your device the information will start to flow into your record. Most device data is shown on the Measurements page but if you are using a glucometer then these results will be shown on the Tests page.
