QuickCare Digital Thermometer

This fast, accurate and reliable thermometer works for your whole household—baby to adult. You can use it orally, under-arm or rectally to get a reading in 8 seconds on the illuminated display. It has a comfortable tip and easy-clean design for use with standard probe covers, and a simple bubble game helps keep little ones distracted during readings.

But that’s just the beginning: It links to your smartphone via Bluetooth to give you guidance on what to do next via the free Kinsa app (for example, rest and fluids, ibuprofen or a trip to urgent care). It even allows you to track temperatures, symptoms and medications for each family member. FYI: The thermometer works with or without a smartphone, but for the features beyond the temperature reading, you need the app.
