Philips Lumify Ultrasound App

Koninklijke Philips N.V.

About this app

When paired with a Philips Lumify transducer and used by a trained medical professional, the Philips Lumify mobile app turns a smart device into a mobile ultrasound solution. The Lumify solution is designed to make ultrasound mobile and accessible right where you need it.

The Lumify mobile app only supports smart devices that Philips has qualified. There are currently three Lumify transducers available that work with the Lumify mobile app: the S4-1 sector or phased array, the L12-4 linear array, and the C5-2 curved array transducers.

For more information or a list of qualified smart devices, please get in touch with your Philips sales representative or call 1-800-229-6417 for Lumify USA sales.

The Lumify mobile app is intended to be used only by trained clinicians and operates as an ultrasound device only when paired with the Philips Lumify transducer. Patient details in the displayed example screenshots are fictional to illustrate app functionality.

Ratings and reviews

Unfortunately, it keeps crashing on my Samsung s21 ultra. I have tried reinstalling multiple times, but nothing. The weird thing is that it works fine on my old phone. Philips seriously needs to work on bug fixes. *29/05/2024 7 months later and still no update to try and fix these issues that are being experienced by many users. Disappointing..

It is very disappointing that Philips have not kept up with the software of their competitors. For example, the echo software for lumify does not enable measurement of ejection fraction. Other portable systems (such as Butterfly IQ, GE Vscan extend) offer this and other features, despite the Lumify providing far superior image quality. I provided feedback to Philips Aus 2 years ago, and there have been no additions to their software. In contrast, Butterfly are constantly improving their system.

When it works it is excellent. However to get it work on my Galaxy Fold2 or Note8 I need to uninstall the app, then reinstall then re register the probe then restart the phone. And then it mostly does not let me scan and keeps asking to connect a transducer. But when it works it is excellent and a great clinical tool. But for the money for the transducer I am a little frustrated and would be hard to recommend for enterprise wide purchase at my hospital.
