MyZio
What does the daily summary in MyZio show me?
The daily summary gives you simple, jargon-free stats like how long you wore the monitor, your total heartbeats, and whether anything notable occurred. It's designed to give you the facts at a glance without overwhelming you.
How does the symptom journal work with the ECG viewer?
You tap a button for symptoms like 'dizzy' or 'palpitations', and the app time-stamps it. Later, you can cross-reference that time with the ECG waveform to see exactly what your heart was doing, which makes doctor conversations much more specific.
Why is MyZio useless without the Zio patch?
MyZio is purely a companion app for the Zio monitor patch, so it has no standalone heart-monitoring features. If you don't have the patch prescribed and paired, the app won't show any ECG data or daily summaries.
What should I do if MyZio isn't syncing with the Zio patch?
First, make sure Bluetooth is enabled on your phone and the patch is within a few feet. If it still won't sync, try restarting the app or your phone, as the app is designed to sync automatically and a quick reboot usually fixes connection hiccups.
How does MyZio compare to the KardiaMobile app?
While KardiaMobile lets you take on-demand ECG readings with a separate device, MyZio provides continuous monitoring over weeks via the Zio patch, plus a symptom journal tied to a full-day timeline. MyZio is better for long-term tracking, but KardiaMobile is more portable for spot checks.
