Review: Vicks SmartTemp Wireless Smartphone Thermometer<img src="
" />
With each passing year, Bluetooth finds its way into more products which never seemed to need Bluetooth before. Sometimes Bluetooth functionality is beneficial, or downright innovative. Other times, we're left wondering what the point is. Vicks has introduced its SmartTemp Wireless Smartphone Thermometer ($25), a Bluetooth body temperature thermometer which requires a smartphone and the company's free app to take readings. The app does more than that, of course — it can set up individualized profiles for family members, save a history of temperature readings, and set up reminders for the last reading or dosage. SmartTemp takes its readings in 8 seconds, which isn't the slowest thermometer out there, but it's certainly not the quickest, either. Vicks claims the thermometer has "professional accuracy" as with its other, non-Bluetooth thermometers.{/exp:char_limit}
