Simply a bad idea. Dated interface. It asks money for what Mi Fit would do for free, like Google Fit sync. And it crashes each time it was supposed to sync with a Mi Scale.

Doesn't seem to work with Bluetooth scales unless you pay for the full version so you don't even know how well it works, and the UI/UX is sub par.

If you have a Bluetooth scale this is useless. They claim to support it, but as you as you need it, they ask you to upgrade so technically this app doesn't support it. Don't waste your time with this app.

Seems to imply that it supports Bluetooth scales, and even has the ability to scan for them. However, it cannot actually do anything with that data, so it's unclear what purpose it serves.

I have been trying body measurements apps for the last week and this is the one I'm going to keep, as it does almost everything I need. The only stats missing are blood pressure and heart rate measurements. It's too bad this app is getting low ratings due to the removal of Bluetooth support into the paid "pro" version, because even without it, it's one of the best of it's kind.

This app is pointless if you're looking for open-source weight tracking AND Bluetooth compatibility. There used to be Bluetooth support inbuilt, but it got cut out and shipped with the paid "pro" version. oS(light) is basically a notepad for manually logging weight/other info. Only useful if your scale spits that out visually--if not, you'll need BT functionality. $2.50 for privacy isn't bad but some QOL issues make that less palatable: manual transfer of old logs, not all scales work fully.

About this app

Monitor and track your weight, BMI, body fat, body water, muscle and other body metrics in an open source app that:
* has an easy to use user interface with graphs,
* doesn't require you to create an account,
* can be configured to only show the metrics you care about, and
* respects your privacy and lets you decide what to do with your data.

Bluetooth scales (pro version)

openScale has built-in support for a number of Bluetooth (BLE or "smart") scales from many manufacturers, e.g. Beurer, Sanitas, Yunmai, Xiaomi, etc. (see model list below). Together with our users we constantly improve and extend the set of supported scales and in many cases pick up where the original app falls short.

For scales without Bluetooth, or Bluetooth scales not (yet) supported by openScale, measurements can be manually entered in a quick and easy way.

Note: Please install openScale pro version to enable Bluetooth support

Privacy
This app has no ads and requests no unnecessary permissions. The location permission is only needed to find a Bluetooth scale. Once found the permission can be revoked (or never granted if Bluetooth isn't used).

Supported metrics
Weight, BMI (body mass index), body water, muscle, LBM (lean body mass), body fat, bone mass, waist circumference, waist-to-height ratio, hip circumference, waist-hip ratio, visceral fat, chest circumference, thigh circumference, biceps circumference, neck circumference, body fat caliper, BMR (basal metabolic rate), TDEE (Total Daily Energy Expenditure) and Calories. Each entry can also have an optional comment.

Note: don't worry if you think the list is too long: metrics you don't use can be disabled and hidden.
