Kinsa Smart Ear Thermometer Reviews

4.5 Rating 262 Reviews
This thermometer sure has been getting a lot of use lately! Being "essential workers" we take our temperature with this every morning before going to work and daycare. Here's what I love about the thermometer: 1. The app is great for tracking temperatures. You can even add different family members to track separately along with symptoms and medications. It is so easy to setup. 2. The readings are basically instant and almost the same as another forehead thermometer so we know we can'trust the readings. 3. We've owned this for a year and never had to change the batteries! What I'don't love: 1. It isn't as accurate for my 15 month old's tiny ears as it is in older kids and adults.

I love this thermometer! It is easy to use and the app is great! It gives you a lot of information if you are wondering about stuff. The app is easy to use and navigate through. The one thing I liked about the app is if your chI'd has a cough it gives you examples of the coughs and what they sound like.

This thermometer is amazing! I am a first time mom and wanted something quick and easy to use. it's reliable and does all the work for you. It keeps track of your babies temperature and tells you when it's time to take action. I love that it logs the temperatures because when your baby is sick trying to remember how high their fever was is the last thing in your mI'd. It connects easy via Bluetooth. The app is super simple to use and you can setup profiles if you have more then one chI'd. By far the best thermometer for babies.

I registered for this item when I was due with my mI'dle chI'd who is now 3. I was excited to have such a fast thermometer and one that I could track on my phone. Unfortunately I found that her little ears were too small to fit the thermometer piece in and get an accurate reading. I can use it for my husband and I and our 11 year old son but anyone under 5 doesn't have big enough ear canals. It was such a disappointment. I then had to buy another thermometer to get a reading I could trust. The Kinsa is about 3 degrees off and when we are talking high fever it's important to have an accurate reading. I would not recommend this to someone who wants a quick thermometer for their young chI'dren. I would however recommend it to a family with older chI'dren ages 5 and up.

I love the Kinsa ear thermometer. It goes in the ear and reads extremely fast. I honestly use it for my whole family. The app is super simple to use and great to keep track of the family when there?s a virus going around. The one flaw is it would read low if it gets dirty. Sometimes I would want to read both ears and I would just need to make sure I cleaned it in between.

Very easy to use one handed while holding baby if needed. Reads quickly and accurately. Only complaint is that my big kids complain it is not very comfortable in their ear but it's so quick it's not a deal breaker. I love that it reads and send the temp to my phone so I can easily track if their fevers are coming down and am able to give that info to their pediatrician if needed.

I have a collection of thermometers, everything from recital for a baby to one I like to call ?point and shoot? no contact. None ever seen accurate. Fast forward to last year when my son had a fever, but none of my thermometers were giving an accurate reading. I ended up at my local Target and settled on the Kinsa Smart Ear Thermometer. An ear one was the only one I'didn't have in my collection. I thought why not? The added bonus of the app to track temperatures made it ultra appealing. Now, a year later, and I belI've it's my most accurate thermometer, at least on my elementary school aged kI'do. it's fast, accurate, and I love the app! Definitely a keeper!

We trI'd just about every model of thermometer on the market, but this Kinsa in-ear thermometer has been the easiest and most reliably accurate one. It makes it'super quick and simple to take our baby?s temperature. He won't sit'still long, if at all, so having it take his temp so fast is a must for us. The app is very user friendly and helps us keep track of his temperature, so we can see if there's been any increase or decrease. My favorite things about this thermometer are how easy it is to use, how fast it takes a temperature, and the great app for keeping track of everything. This is one of my diaper bag essentials.
