About openScale
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
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.
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 and BMR (basal metabolic
rate). 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.
