“The Kinsa QuickCare Smart Thermometer gives you a temperature reading in about 8 seconds which is much faster than most other oral or rectal thermometers. I have 2 girls - ages 3 and 5 - and as those of you with young chI'dren will know, it's hard to keep a thermometer in their mouth for anything longer than 8 seconds! I also found the reliability of the reading to be much better than the touchless thermometers that go across your forehead. I liked that the Kinsa reading also shows faces I'dicating whether you have a "happy" or "sad" temperature. This is easy for the kids to understand, especI'lly when they are having to take their temperature daily for school. The app that comes with the Kinsa is really neat. You can setup profiles for every family member and track your temperature and symptoms. Your phone will even ask you if you want to save your temperature if you do a reading without the app open. I'm scheduled to have my 2nd COVID-19 vaccine next week and looking forward to using the Kinsa QuickCare Smart Thermometer to track my temperature and symptoms before and after the shot. I was given this thermometer to try as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel.”
“Not much stresses me out as a mom as much as a sick kid, especI'lly one with a fever. The Kinsa QuickCare Smart Thermometer really helps ease the stress of illness. With three kids, it feels impossible to remember whose temperature I took when and how high it was when I'm trying to give that info to the doctor. With the new Kinsa thermometer, I'll never have to second guess myself again on who had what temperature when.
It was extremely easy to set up and the app is very simple and user friendly. I love that the app gives suggestions on what to do when your chI'd's temperature is a certain level. It takes the guess work out of deciding to call the pediatrician or not. Having easy to navigate profiles for each of my kids is awesome too.
The Kinsa thermometer works quickly to get an accurate temp, and my kids like seeing the smiley faces on the screen. I love how small and flexible the thermometer is, not like a bulky forehead scanner that my kids run from. Thank you to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this thermometer!”
“Overall I think the Kinsa thermometer and app are a good concept. I'm glad I had the opportunity to test one out with Stellar Product Testing. it'seems helpful for parents'to be able to digit'lly keep track of their chI'd's temperature history when sick and not have to write it down to remember exact numbers. I love the cute graphics on the app. They are very toddler friendly! My main downside to it is that it is just one more step to take when my son isn?t feeling well. I'm normally worrI'd and want to know his temperature right away, without having to grab my phone and get it connected to the thermometer. I think that is just a change I would need to adjust to.”
“My toddler lost our old thermometer (surprise!) so I was really excited to try this one out. The first thing I noticed was how easy it was to set up right out of the box. I liked the feel and size of this thermometer too. The app is SUPER easy to use and very straight forward with readings. Plus you can make different profiles for each member of the family which is super helpful for us.
READINGS ARE SO FAST! Even my toddler was able to get a reading without yanking his head away haha. I love that you can use this orally, rectally or under the arm. We have a baby coming in July and I feel confident that we won't need to buy a different thermometer - this one does it all. I was given this thermometer to try as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel.”
“This is a go-to gift for a baby shower! This thermometer and accompanying app are so helpful. On the app you can add profiles for the whole family, record when you gave medication and how much, and keep track of symptoms. Being able to keep track of everything on the app was my favorite feature and it is so helpful for those sleepless nights with a sick kid! The app is very user friendly and offers tips and next steps based on temperature and accompanying symptoms. I found the thermometer to be easy to use for babies through big kids (you can choose from oral, rectal, or underarm) and accurate. The only downside is sometimes you have to encourage a wiggly kid to hold still and not move their tongue around to get an accurate reading (it will beep and ask you to start over with too much movement). I highly recommend this thermometer and plan on buying it for baby shower gifts. Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this product!”
“The Kinsa QuickCare Smart Thermometer is the most fastest, comfortable thermometer I have ever used. My almost 4 year old was also able to use it under her tongue with some coaching.
I really enjoy the experience of the app and how the thermometer tells you right away if you have a fever. I like that you can use it in low lighting. My favorite feature of the app was that I could use the thermometer without having to worry about the app and then when I opened the app, I received a prompt to save the temp to the correct family member.
I look forward to using this thermometer for years to come. Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this thermometer.”
“I really love this little thermometer! In the past, I've always used a rectal thermometer to take my boys? temperatures because it provides the most accurate reading; however, now that they?re getting older (and are vehemently opposed to the rectal thermometer!) I wanted to transition to a more grown-up thermometer. The Kinsa QuickCare Thermometer has been the perfect solution for my family! it's super versatile?temperatures can be taken rectally, orally, and under the arm?and it provides a temperature reading within 8 seconds, which is super helpful with kids who won't hold still. I also really, really love that this thermometer has an app! Downloading the app was super easy and it took no time at all to create a profile for each member of my family. Now, when I take my boys? temperatures (or my own!) the information is automatically shared with the app and I'don't have to worry about recording it in a note on my phone. This feature has made it'so easy to keep track of everyones temperatures and health information. Also, my boys beg to have their temperatures taken with this thermometer because they love to see their I'dividual profiles and watch their temperatures pop up in the app. Talk about an unexpected bonus!
All in all, I love this product and would highly recommend it. Thank you to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for sending me the Kinsa QuickCare Smart Thermometer to try and review!”
“This review of the Kinsa QuickCare Smart thermometer is from the Stellar Product Testing Panel. As a product tester, I was actually concerned about reviewing a thermometer as my family does not often get sick. So what happens? Not 24 hours after the Kinsa thermometer arrives, my oldest chI'd begins to show signs of a fever. And as all families know, the rest of us went through the same sickness within the week. I am going to first review the thermometer specifically and then the app. The first thing about the Kinsa thermometer that is important to note is that you need to download the app prior to using the thermometer. Once it is connected to a phone, it can be used at any time, including when the app is not open. The thermometer is silicone and the ?tail? is more flexible than any thermometer I have used. The digital face is easy to read and lit up when in use. It does, I'deed take a temp within 8 secs, however, if your chI'd moves their body or tongue while it is reading their temp, it will show an Error code due to inconsistent reading. This was frustrating at first, but I'decided I would rather an accurate reading and appreciate this. Now for the app. I never knew I needed a temp monitoring app in my life, but now I can't imagine living without it! It keeps track of all the data I never remember when asked from a doctor as well as timing for medicine, which is a true mom struggle! The app can be downloaded on multi phones and automatically link by being connected to the same thermometer. You are able to set up profiles for all family members separately and place their age. Something I was also impressed with was if I took a temp (i.e. mI'dle of the night) and didn't open the app, a pop-up would show later asking if I would like to log that temp into the app. The symptom prompts were relatively helpful, though seemed to emphasize COVID symptoms versus typical illnesses. Understandable, but to monitor symptoms beside temps, made it more difficult. Overall, I was extremely impressed with both the Kinsa app as well as the QuickCare Smart Thermometer and will be continuing to utilize it in our household.”
