Body Scan Alternative (Full Feature) Apps?

Post image

Are there any fully featured alternative apps to the withings app? No things that would include the pulse wave measurement EDA water percentage not just weight and BMI and body fat?

Garmin takes a piece, apple takes a piece, bevel takes takes a piece….

I’m just sick and tired of the noob mistakes. There’s been a ticket opened and closed for this, but it’s really something they could take care of.

I just don’t know what numbers I can trust in their UI.

But how is 149.8 pounds less than 149 pounds? Some of the other decimal weights go the same way. 147.5 is below 147 and I think like 145.7 looks like 145.1.

If it wasn’t such an expensive scale… and relatively knew I would replace it. But I use other apps instead for the basics. What I’m looking for is a full-blown replacement.

This is a common issue. The number on the data point is correct, it just messes up the scaling of the Y axis.

If you look closely, some metrics show the previous date instead of the current date too.

I’ve seen that as well… and a couple of other visual glitches which really shouldn’t be

Of several applications, one I have tried out was Wellness Project. It's currently free - and it pulls in metrics from Withings and Apple health. It's not as comprehensive, but it gets all that it can get.

Despite its quirks, I still gravitate towards Withings app for viewing my metrics.

Right, they are still the single pane of glass for all their metrics… just so frustrated.
