    Tracking your blood pressure over time helps you and your doctor see patterns — like whether it is higher in the morning or after salty meals. A phone app makes this much easier than a paper log.

    Apple Health (on iPhone) and Google Fit (on Android) both track blood pressure. Some wireless cuffs from brands like Omron and Withings send the reading directly to your phone.
