It allows you to the user to switch the measure of unit, but when swiping to the ideal weight page, it only shows the metric weight, i.e. by kg. ### 3/5 — It’s okay *2024-01-22, version 1.3.1* It’s good but it’s doesn’t ask your age so it thinks you underweight or overweight but all good 👍 ### 4/5 — Prediabetic *2023-07-31, version 1.3.1* Need to move from obese to normal. I have 9 months of targeted support and have moved from obese to overweight. I lost 2 inches from my waistline, but still have a long way to go. This gives me an idea of progress ### 3/5 — Maße nicht mehr lesbar bei dunklem Erscheinungsbild *2023-05-14* Wird am IPhone das dunkle Erscheinungsbild ausgewählt, sind die Einstellungswerte von Größe, Gewicht etc. nicht mehr lesbar und können nicht eingestellt werden. Schade. Ich mag die App, das sie ansonsten unkompliziert und nicht mit Funktionen überbordert ist. ### 3/5 — Might need bug fixing *2023-03-03, version 1.3* Overall a decent app, I’ve been using it for years now. Only issue is that the bug fixing from two weeks ago resulted in more bugs for me ### 4/5 — Bug fix needed *2023-02-25* Не меняются кг после обновления. ### 4/5 — Изменилось *2023-02-18* Сегодня приложение почему то изменилось, раньше лучше было ### 4/5 — Grundsätzlich super, aber … *2023-02-01* Seit dem letzten Update sind die Zahlen, zum einstellen des Tagesaktuellen Gewichts, leider nicht mehr sichtbar !? Bis dahin war die App super !!!! ???? ### 1/5 — Get your stuff right *2022-07-28, version 1.2.6* So off for the weight like just for a example 4.10 for height and 90 pounds is apparently under weight!! LIKE WHAT??!!! Also female. ### 2/5 — Does not show correct category *2022-06-07, version 1.2.6* There are correctly calculated BMI values in the normal range that show up as overweight. I like the simplicity of this, but I wish it was correct. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Я сбрасываюсь с крышы. *2024-12-16* У меня ожирение 2 степени. ### 1/5 — Only Shows Ideal BMI in KG *2024-01-31, version 1.3.1* What happened to this app? I’ve used it for years and it’s been great. I helped a friend download it, and it only shows her ideal BMI in kilograms. I deleted mine and reinstalled it thinking I could find how I set mine up, but now it shows ideal BMI in kilograms too. There is no way to show the ideal weight in pounds. The app is now useless. ### 1/5 — Changes lbs and height *2023-07-16, version 1.3.1* I put in my height in and it changes my eight and the other way around. Telling me I’m obese at 5”8 and 120. ### 1/5 — Ne fonctionne plus *2023-02-19* Le menu déroulant du poids ne fonctionne plus … ### 1/5 — Last update *2023-02-17, version 1.3* Since the last update, unable to input weight ### 1/5 — Does NOT Work Since Update *2023-02-08, version 1.2.7* I cannot believe I’ve had this app for years and it was my favorite. Ever since the update, I can’t even put my weight in, what sex I am, etc. it’s ridiculous that this app passed scrutiny. I’ve deleted it and reinstalled it a few times and nothing helps. Please review your app it does not work any longer. ### 1/5 — Не работает *2023-02-08* Не вводятся данные ### 1/5 — BMI is an outdated method. Wake up people *2023-01-29, version 1.2.7* Please do yourself a favor and find better information than a BMI index. It really is an outdated scale. ### 1/5 — Funktioniert nicht mehr *2023-01-24* Keine Eingaben mehr möglich. Und Werbung taucht auf, die es bisher nicht gab. App gelöscht. ### 1/5 — Not accurate!! *2022-08-22, version 1.2.6* I’m 11 years old, 5’2, and 124 pounds but it called me “overweight”??? I wear extra small shirts! Anyways, when I switched the gender from girl to boy it called 124 underweight? WTH? Anyways, thanks for reading, this app is trash ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Ура, я жирная *2026-02-02* К приложения вопросов нет, а так же и притензий. У меня ожирение первой степени, спасибо❤️💋 ### 5/5 — Got to get to40.9 or lower *2025-10-03, version 1.3.1* This app is great it’s helping me get to the 40.9 at the least. I have to get there so I will be able to get the knee surgery I need. So thank you so much. ### 5/5 — Great BMI App *2025-06-02, version 1.3.1* Other bmi apps are studded with popups that make it impossible to calculate your numbers. Your app is nice and clean and extremely responsive. Thanks for providing something that actually works properly. ### 5/5 — Ваа *2025-04-08* Приложение замечательное ### 5/5 — ВАЖНО *2025-02-05* дорогие дети которые возмущаются о том что у них недовес да у вас он и вправду есть ПРИЛОЖЕНИЕ АФИГЕННОЕ ### 5/5 — Спасибо ! *2025-01-12* Очень хорошее приложение, обновить не могу,так как у меня айпад эйр 12 обновление. ### 5/5 — Анарексичка *2024-11-29* У меня недовес 5-20 кг) ### 5/5 — BMI *2024-03-10* Sehr hilfreich, und kostenlos. ### 5/5 — Still NOT Working Since Update/s *2023-03-09, version 1.3* Update: I’ve had this app for years and it was my favorite. Ever since the update/s, it only registers in cm. I’m in the U.S. We don’t do cm. It previously always allowed for lbs and inches. I’ve deleted it and reinstalled it a few times and nothing helps. I’ve also emailed them and nothing changes. Please review your app, as it does not work correctly any longer. It also doesn’t remember your weight and you constantly have to re-do everything. ### 5/5 — очень даже неплохо *2022-06-03* Приложение удобное, легко в нём разобраться и настроить. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
