### 5/5 — Great for keeping track

*2026-08-06, version 2026.5.3*

Great app for keeping track of my weight. And keeps me motivated with predictions to show me what I can achieve if I keep going.

### 5/5 — Awesome weight tracking app!

*2026-08-05, version 2026.5.3*

I just realised I’ve been using this app for 15 years 🤯!

It’s as good now as it was then - here’s my original review.

Happy Scale is a fantastic app for tracking your weight loss. Its moving average feature is a great motivator, because it smooths out the bumps that can otherwise confound you - you can clearly see if you’re on the right track.

It’s also a beautifully crafted app, with an elegant, well designed UX.

### 5/5 — Only time I have reviewed an app in a positive way of my own free will

*2026-08-05, version 2026.5.3*

I love this app I think it’s amazing! I hope the creators could produce a calorie counting app that could combine with this app and somehow also pull my body metrics in too to have it all in one spot that’s not apple health. I love this app so much. I love that you can customize so much of it!! And as someone who is very organized I like that this app shows every detail and has animated confetti when you hit a milestone! I hope the creators keep expanding!

### 5/5 — La meilleur app de suivi de poids

*2026-07-31*

J’ai cette application depuis le début, je suis dans le pool des acheteurs originaux. Et je peux vous dire que j’y reviens systématiquement. 

Elle est tellement bien faite, tellement ergonomique. Pour moi, c’est simplement la meilleure application de suivi de poids. Et en plus il continue d’y avoir de nouvelles fonctionnalités, même en 2026, c’est juste incroyable. Merci merci merci !

### 5/5 — Love your app

*2026-07-26, version 2026.5.3*

Love this app, it’s helped me so much with the mental up and down of the weight swings. Have you ever considered a scatter graph to show weight trends over the month? I sometimes still struggle with “oh my weight is the same as it was at the start of the month” without seeing that weight in context to the weights around it

### 5/5 — Simple and effective

*2026-07-22, version 2026.5.3*

It’s easy to get caught up in the bells and whistles of some of these newer Health apps. Happy Scale is perfect for me because I’m focused on weight loss. I know what I’m eating. I know how I’m exercising. I just need a simple interface to track my weight. The fact that it gives me some fireworks to celebrate is icing on the cake…of which I’ll take just one bite, thank you. Happy Scale works. Period.

### 3/5 — ダイエットするならぜひ欲しいアプリ

*2026-07-18*

気に入り、課金してながらく使わせてもらっています。しかし体脂肪率を記録し推移を見ることができないのが大きな不満です。ダイエットを含む健康維持と美容に一番大切なのは体脂肪率です。
それと、Appleヘルスの月経周期データを体重グラフに重ねて表示されるようにしてほしいです。ハッピースケールとヘルスケアの周期記録を行ったり来たりしながら確認している方々がたくさんいるはずですからぜひ検討いただきたい。そこまでできたら神アプリになりますね。無課金はともかく課金ユーザーのためにそこまで頑張ってほしい。応援しています。

### 5/5 — The best way to not obsess with the scale

*2026-07-13, version 2026.5.3*

I love this app because it allows me to track my progress in small chunks that I know I can accomplish. I also love the averages and being able to use my 10-day low. Super customizable and very robust. If you need a weight tracker app - look no further. Yes it integrates with Apple health so I get my readings directly from my scale!

### 5/5 — Love motivation

*2026-07-12, version 2026.5.3*

I have used this app for a long time and love all the new additions which are added regularly.  I find it very motivating.

### 5/5 — Super helpful

*2026-07-12, version 2026.5.3*

I have been using this app since I began my weight loss journey over five years ago. I can see the trends, the successes, and my goal. It’s been a huge part of staying on track and not giving up on myself!! I recommend it!!

### 5/5 — This is the best app ever!

*2026-07-11, version 2026.5.3*

This is an incredible app.  I have referred it to all my friends, now I need to refer it to you.  This is the only app you will need to record your weight, and help you lose.  Day by day you record it, an a at glance, you can look back and see your history.  I look back all the time, an it keeps me on track.  Customer service is great, too.  Have a question?  It gets handled immediately!  It doesn't get better than this weight tracking aid.

### 5/5 — Amazing app!!

*2026-07-09, version 2026.5.3*

I have struggled losing weight with my pcos and this app helped me tremendously. Not only to see how much weight I was losing but helped me set realistic goals!! I love this app!

### 5/5 — Excellent Weight Tracking App

*2026-07-05, version 2026.5.3*

I’ve had this app for years, I wouldn’t trade it for the world. It’s been with me through my ups and downs.. I have historical data in charts that has seen my weight gains and drops.. try it you won’t regret it.

### 5/5 — Great app for weight tracking

*2026-06-28, version 2026.5.3*

Easy to use and reliable tracker.

### 5/5 — Love, love this app!!

*2026-06-22, version 2026.5.3*

I absolutely love this app. I have been using it for many years now. It does exactly what I want to do.  One thing I love about it:  I am able to detect patterns in weight loss and weight gain. I also love the prediction algorithms. I can see a predicted weight on a date based on a predicted weight loss rate.  Thanks in part to this app, I know when to be more vigilant, based on previous years problem times.

### 5/5 — Great App

*2026-06-21, version 2026.5.3*

I been using this app since 2017. It has helped me on my journey and I look forward to using it more often as I get ready to have Gastric Bypass

### 5/5 — Great!

*2026-06-20, version 2026.5.3*

Very helpful and motivational app

### 5/5 — Great App!

*2026-06-15, version 2026.5.3*

Very useful and has been consistently updated over the years 7+ years I’ve used it.

### 5/5 — Genuinely the best out there

*2026-06-14, version 2026.5.3*

I've been using this app to track my weight loss and this app has been the single best tool I've had in this journey. The trend line and moving average feature really helps cancel out scale noise. I like the way you can break down your journey into milestones and the predictions are really helpful as well. Cannot recommend enough!

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — It changes weight units on its own

*2026-07-25, version 2026.5.3*

From time to time it switches from lb to kg on its own

### 1/5 — Log weight and nothing else if you don’t want to pay

*2026-06-10, version 2026.5.3*

I think it ridiculous you can’t add notes next to your weight without having to pay. At this point I’ll just keep a journal.

### 1/5 — You took my BMI card away

*2026-05-31*

Completely unacceptable to take a feature I already paid for away. I updated the app and was presented with a new subscription to track my BMI separately. NO!!!!!

**Developer response:** I’m sorry, this was an accident. If you change tabs and come back, it will work again. We are pushing out a fix ASAP. - Russ

### 1/5 — Needs a Dropbox account

*2026-05-19, version 2026.4*

Look it’s a good app. But needing Dropbox to sync between devices is ridiculous. It should sync seamlessly via iCloud.

### 1/5 — No me sirvió para nada

*2026-03-17, version 2026.4*

No me ayudó para nada

### 1/5 — Hidden fees

*2026-02-08, version 2026.1*

You have to pay a suscription fee, the app should hsve a proce tagg

### 1/5 — Nothing is free

*2026-02-03, version 2026.1*

There is a 7 day free trial but you can’t even see any of the app before clicking that. It’s 1.99/month or $12/yr

### 1/5 — Stopped Working

*2026-01-18, version 2025.18*

I loved this app, it was great… then it just stopped syncing with my other apps. So even though my other apps had recorded my weight and this app had been syncing for months, now it’s just not doing that. I went in and searched for fixes. I reset the sync settings a few times and that worked for a day or two and pretty soon it just stopped again. Incredibly frustrating, I found this very helpful when it had the data that all my other health apps have. I’m not manually entering my weight everyday and I’m not troubleshooting the sync settings every day either. So I’m deleting this app and hope I’ll find something similar one day that actually works.

### 1/5 — So disappointed

*2026-01-11, version 2025.18*

Now you have to pay for a subscription to see anything. Mind you I’ve been using this for almost 2 years while losing 125 pounds. Now I can’t see any of my history without paying. This is so ridiculous. Do better!!

### 1/5 — Doesn’t show how much you’ve lost

*2026-01-03, version 2025.18*

That’s the whole point of a weight loss tracker. To see how much weight you’ve lost….

### 5/5 — Best app period but really need to work on the widgets

*2026-08-24*

Nothing come close when it comes to weight management . Please change the font size . Lots of space is wasted I need to use glasses to see data. Or Make one widget , which shows the current weight in bit font size….

### 5/5 — Great app!

*2026-08-22, version 2026.5.3*

I’ve been using this app for years, and I’ve honestly never had any issues with glitches or reliability. It’s easy to use, keeps me motivated, and provides all the data and tracking information I need to stay on top of my progress. I love being able to see my results over time—it really helps keep me accountable and motivated to stay on track. I highly recommend this app to anyone looking for an effective and user-friendly way to track their progress! ⭐️

### 5/5 — Fantastic

*2026-08-22, version 2026.6*

This is great! Prediction estimates are surprisingly motivating. I literally look forward to using it every day?!

### 5/5 — Best app period

*2026-08-20*

Nothing come close when it comes to weight management . Please change the font size . Lots of space is wasted I need to use glasses to see data. Or Make one widget , which shows the current weight in bit font size….

*2026-08-18, version 2026.5.3*

### 5/5 — Great app to track progress

*2026-08-17*

I love the simplicity of this app, as well as the ease of setting up goals/milestones in a way that makes it feel achievable. I've used this app in the past and now using it again after a pregnancy. Hopefully another success!

### 5/5 — Simple and wonderful app

*2026-08-15, version 2026.5.3*

Just a brief note to let everyone how super easy it is to use this app, and that it is pretty motivational.  Losing weight isn't easy and the way it tracks weight loss is very intuitive and really helps to keep you on track (and stay positive).

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2026-08-08*

This app has helped me to keep on track with my weight loss.  It has great features. No glitches and is worth the money.
