Step 3: Complete the Sign-Up Process & Create Your Personal Aktiia Account

  • Confirm that you understand Aktiia is not a diagnostic device and accept the Terms of Service and Privacy Policy by checking the required boxes. You will then be asked a series of health-related questions to ensure compatibility with the device. Certain medical conditions represent contraindications to the use of the product, as the device has not been tested under those conditions, and we cannot ensure the accuracy of results. If your answers confirm eligibility, you can proceed to complete the account creation process. If any conditions make Aktiia unsuitable, you will be notified.

  • Simply choose your country from the list and fill in your personal details like your name, email, and create a password. You'll also be asked for a few more details, such as your date of birth, gender, weight, and height. Aktiia needs this information to tailor the blood pressure monitoring experience. Providing accurate data helps to ensure that your readings are personalized and accurate.

  • Check your email inbox for a message from Aktiia. Inside the email, click on “VERIFY YOUR EMAIL”. Once your email is verified, head back to the app to complete your setup. If you don’t see the email, you can always use the "Resend email" option. Please note, if you don’t verify your email within 24 hours, you will need to start the process again from the beginning.

If you did not receive the Verification email, please follow these steps:

  • Check your spam inbox or your spam filters

  • Repeat the registration process making sure you input the correct email address

Once your email has been verified, you can proceed to the next step shown in the Aktiia app by clicking “Take my first measurement”.

Step 4: Take Your First Measurement 

To take a blood pressure measurement using the camera, sit comfortably with your back straight and feet flat on the ground. Place your index finger over the camera lens on the back of your phone, applying gentle pressure to ensure the lens is fully covered. Keep both your hand and the phone steady by resting them on a stable surface, and remain still and quiet during the measurement for accuracy. 

Allow the app to access the camera, and follow the on-screen prompts to begin. Once the measurement is complete, the app will display your systolic and diastolic blood pressure values, along with your heart rate. Be sure to follow all instructions carefully to ensure accurate results.

Step 5: Finish Your Onboarding

You'll start by selecting your main reason for using the app, like managing a cardiac event or optimizing your health. Next, set goals such as taking regular measurements or tracking how medications affect your blood pressure. You can customize a measurement schedule with reminders, enable notifications, and set medication alerts—both of which can also be set up later in the "Profile" section. You can select "Set this up later" during onboarding if you'd prefer to do it later. Aktiia also offers educational content about blood pressure, which you can explore or skip by pressing "Next." This helps you get started right away while keeping helpful info at hand when needed.
