BinaxNOW, NAVICA & United: Book Your Travel Now
This worked back in November which was prior to last variant. Haven’t checked to see if they still work. You might want to research before purchasing.
Process was easy. You need to have a laptop with working camera. I guess a phone might work but we had a laptop. Contact one of their reps and they watch you give your self the test and wait for results. Once you show a negative test, they send an email with results. We did it the day of our flight in our hotel room.

Yea BinaxNow has worked well for me. Used it when coming back from Iceland in July and also coming back from Ukraine in November. It's a little more convenient to have a laptop to do the video chat, but you can do it using only your phone.
I would also recommend to bring at least 1 additional test kit with you on the trip. I had a defective test kit back on my November trip and had to test again. Luckily I brought a spare for such a scenario.
Also, make sure you purchase them from the Emed website. The tests are essentially the exact same at home test kits they sell at pharmacies, but only the ones purchased from the Emed site include the video chat monitoring. And the monitoring is required for you to have an "official" result that the airline will accept.

At-home tests eligible for submission
Just came across this article today and figured I’d update those interested. It appears the monitored self-tests are still valid for reentry into the US. Article does a good job describing the procedure and products.
I’ll be bringing a few with us to France next week.
