### 3/5 — It’s pretty good, but has limits

*2022-05-01*

Nice interface, good set-up with health. Offers multiple methods.

You cannot edit the data, and it doesn’t show the data, only results.

You cannot enter past data that you might have been tracking, say on a scrap of paper for the last four months…

But it does what is says it does.

### 5/5 — Great!

*2021-07-09*

I like it, it’s easy to use.

### 2/5 — App appears abandoned

*2021-01-01*

Sent email to developer as wrong dates are appearing in log entries. Email bounced back as invalid. Id suggest you save your money and take a pass on this.

### 5/5 — Excellent app. Does exactly what it needs to.

*2019-12-09*

The one thing that might make an even better app if it could track more additional data such as body weight. But better to do one thing right than a whole bunch of things wrong.

### 2/5 — Limited Editing and Poor Instructions

*2019-01-20*

I like the clean interface but after purchasing and doing 3 measurements, one per week for 3 weeks, I’ve found this app is really lacking. The first time I went to use it I chose the three site measurement method and was astonished that there were no simple diagrams on where and how to do the folds. Instead were complex anatomy names for where to do the folds so I had switch to safari and google info. Second issue is you cannot edit entries. I made an error on one entry and wanted to correct it but that is not an option so I had to delete it and re-enter all of the data. Third issue is you cannot set or change dates of entries. I accidentally deleted my first entry and wanted to add it back but there is no date field so that’s gone on my graph. So I’m now looking for a better app that offers better instructions and editable data.

### 1/5 — Lost all historical data

*2018-12-05*

Love this app and have been using it for about 6 months. All of my historical data just disappeared. When I enter a new entry it doesn’t show in the history section. Please fix.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2018-10-14*

This app was worth the money. You can enter your caliber measurements and it will average three to give your reading.

### 1/5 — Useless crap

*2018-07-06*

Not recommending this.

### 2/5 — Doesn't Work For Me

*2017-02-04*

My healthkit has both Body Fat Percentage as well as Weight.

I was hoping this app could fill in the data for lean body mass with these numbers available (Lean = weight - body fat * weight), but unfortunately it won't...

Instead the app tells me it has no data...

### 5/5 — Well done.

*2016-12-06*

Not overly complicated and relatively easy to use. I like it and it helps to log and record your weekly progress.  Maybe I have not figured it out yet, however, I don't see where you can go back and look at your individual measurements after you have entered them into the app. It's not necessary, but I'm interested to see what my exact measurements were rather than just the ultimate body fat percentage from week to week.  Nice app so far. Thanks.
