Hence , I try to find the app that can record my data.. And finally, I found this one.. it’s the thing that I want.. simple and easy for me. I almost buy the new weight scale. You safe my money, Thanks so much.

Mostly happy with it

Some things are a little off. Like first time use, there is no way to create a new account (do that from web). The order of fields does not match my scales, and there is no way edit entries. Plus the labels were confusing to sync. So I have 2 entries with very different values, for the same day.

Update 4/2022 Still mostly happy.

Since can’t edit old records, I had to delete and re-enter ( luckily I wrote those down).

Do like the graphs, although comparing entries from 3 years ago to now is skewed. Sorry to see no other recent reviews. Our scales are so old, I can only use this app as a log.Do appreciate the upload/backup feature.

Also, appreciate dev is keeping this up to date - thanks!

How the heck do I set up a profile 🤬

Created a login and password in edit but it keeps telling me it’s wrong ! Gave up

Response from developer

The intention of the app is to provide a more useful display of the Tanita data stored on the MyTanita website after your scale uploads it. So the 'account' information you need to enter is the set of credentials (username/password) that you use on the Tanita website. (https://my.tanita.com). If that's where your scale uploads data to, then just enter the same credentials in my app and you're all set. If you don't have a scale that uploads to Tanita but just stores it locally on the scale, they when you're in the settings page of the app just toggle "store local metrics only" button. You will not require an account at all and you can just enter your metrics manually. After that you can export (.FIT, CSV) or store in you iCloud account. Backups and Restore obviously work as well..

Useless

Doesn’t talk to the Tanita data file correctly . Waste of time

Exactly what I needed

This is perfect for anyone with a non-networked Tanita scale who wants to track their metrics! I don’t understand the difference between this version and the pro though?

Don’t bother downloading it

Garmin have stopped this working. They have gone BACKWARDS in their development and now the scales will not sync with this app

Stuck app

Just installed this app, but it’s stuck at « Loading Garmin Health Data »... any idea why?

Does not work

Supposed to be able to import body composition data from Tanita scales. Nice idea if it would actually work.

Extremely useful tool!

If you are looking for an app to track all of your data, that can synchronize with Garmin Connect and Tanita's platforms, this is the app for you. I use it almost daily and the developer has streamlined everything. Even when there was a hiccup in the serviceability of the app, (only due to security protocol impeached by Garmin) the developer responded to emails, kept me up to date with the app's progress. Honestly, he went above and beyond what I expected. I though he would give some generic, "I'm sorry but we are looking into why blah blah blah,". Instead he detailed everything for me and he also ensured his users would receive the fix once the solution was found. Great app, great developer, enough said.

No longer seems to sync :(

Not a bad app as a rule... It's been good in the past, and of course Garmin don't make their connect website so it can record the data... But today this app doesn't sync with Garmin :(

Easier and clearer than Garmin connect

Ok the graphics are basic and crude but if you use the new Garmin index scales, this displays all the relevant data.
It would be nice to see a graphic of body water content as well as the other data.
Seriously though, this is free and gives a better display than the Garmin connect app.
I would like to see it developed a little better with flashier graphics and I would be happy to pay for it.

Good job

Integration of Tanita and Garmin data...

I find this a great app and allows me to integrate my Tantia data with my Garmin Connect data. It also allows the ability to manually enter body composition data and upload to Garmin. For those of you that are aware you can only add weight on Connect; this app allows to enter all of the other body measurements and upload them to Connect. The way I use the app saves me from having to fire up my Edge 800 to weigh myself then plug that in to my computer to sync with Connect. I can take weight readings from my Tanita to my desktop Mac using the Tanita Widget (and Ant+ usb stick) and then all data is synced to Garmin via this app.
I don’t sync with Apple Health data; but if you want to just use the Health Pro App from the same developer.

Tanita interface to Garmin Connect!

I have a Tanita BC-1000+ and have been unable to upload measurement data to Garmin Connect. This nifty app, used in conjunction with the MyTanita website, does the job! Thanks to this app, I can now integrate my weight and workout data in one place.

The process is painless. The Developer was a pleasure to work with when I had a question or feature request. Thank You!!

Impressed

No reviews so was sceptical. Downloaded, linked to Garmin Connect and it pulled all my data into the app and is:

A- Easier to compare than Garmin Connect

B- Easy to navigate and understand.

Just hope the patches keep coming to keep up with apples updates.

Nice app, thanks

Not starting

Does not even start...

Very poor

Crashes as soon as you try to open it. Poor.

Saves $200 bucks!

What an amazing app! This a must have if you own a garmin and one of these scales!
