Great app, but…
I love the kitchen scale and app! They’ve made tracking my macros much easier and more convenient. However, I’ve noticed that a lot of foods are missing from the app, and there doesn’t seem to be a way to create a recipe and then weigh the finished dish after cooking. This makes tracking meals, especially dinners that I prepare for two people, much more difficult. While I can calculate the portions manually, having a recipe feature similar to what many other nutrition apps offer would be a great improvement.
Additionally, the app would benefit from a feature that allows users to scan nutrition labels when a food item isn’t already available in the database. This would make adding custom foods faster and improve the overall user experience.

Goal timelines
It’s frustrating that you can only set a goal for 364 days. For a lot of us this will take more than a year. I don’t want to reset and lose my initial weight. I would like to see my ENTIRE progress. Don’t make me reset my goals and change my initial weight.
Please Restore the Measurements Section
I’ve been a RENPHO user for a long time, and one of my favorite features was being able to easily track my body measurements alongside my weight. After the latest update, I can’t even find where to enter or view my measurements anymore.
The app now seems to focus almost entirely on weight and biometric data. While those metrics are valuable, they’re only part of the picture. For many of us, inches lost around the waist, hips, thighs, arms, and chest are just as important as the number on the scale, sometimes even more important.
Please bring back easy access to body measurements or make them much easier to find. A health app should make it simple to track all aspects of progress, not hide or remove features that users rely on.
The hardware is great, but this update has made the app much less useful for me. I hope the developers listen to user feedback and restore this functionality.

Terrible app
No clue why you have to create an account for a product you already bought, I’ve been on a weight loss journey for the past year no trouble, but this app is an absolute head ache it signs you out every time you try to use it and when you try to get you info back it just asks to start from the beginning terrible app

Feature removed without warning or grandfathering
Renpho removed the weight goal feature for existing ES‑28ML users without warning or grandfathering. This is unacceptable customer service. You should restore the feature for devices that previously supported it. Removing functionality from loyal users is not okay.
Renpho is trying to push people toward their “Pro” devices and subscription features.
This strategy will only push users away from Renpho devices.

Measurement Sounds
What happened to the measurement sounds?!? They stopped working.
Latest update removes functionality
The latest update (7/1?) removed the functionality of including calories burned through exercise to the net calorie amount for a better capture of negative calorie count as opposed to now ha ing to calculate and track outside if the app.
Good Scale, Poor App
This is a real son and real review. The scale is accurate and easy to read. The app is one of the worst I’ve ever used. I have to close and open several times to be able to change screens. Most often, 8 out of 10 times, it doesn’t actively measure but once it’s finally working, I can pull the measurements from the unallocated list into my profile.
Use the scale, not the app.

Feature add on
I have two products that are using the renpho health application and love it.
My only thing I would like to see added is a way to import my apple health workouts into the application or them automatically linked that way I am not having to track them manually.

Please add a dark mode!
This is a great app and it connects flawlessly to my scale. But it is so bright on my screen in the morning. Please please please add a dark mode!!
Hella rude
They said I was old. The audacity
Very disappointed
I've been using and enjoying the Renpho Health app and product for a long time. I just purchased a new body composition scale and was very disappointed to find out that my trend data from the previous scale can't be combined with data from the new scale. I'm basically starting over with new trend data and a new baseline. This was not very well thought out by Renpho and their marketing people.

Inaccurate!!
Thank goodness I didn’t delete the old app! It’s not perfect, but it’s much more accurate than this new one! One example-I’m 5’6 and 241.6. Old app says my BMI is 39.3, new app says BMI is 32.9. BMI calculator says 39.0. On the flip side, old app said my body fat is 52.9, new app says 42.3. Old app is probably correct since BMI was correct (at least it was very close). Don’t get rid of the old app!

Horrible update
I’ve been using Renpho scales for more than five years, with the newest update today, I can’t get my old data back. I hate Renpho.
Poorly designed app
There are app setup issues. It asks for height but defaults to an impossibly low weight on the next screen. When it asked what your target weight is it starts at what you told it but swiping multiple times to a lower weight which is how you set the slider resets it back several screens. Playing with the touch area of the slider did not show a repeatable touch area. The only way to get by is to slide very slowly and once the screen begins to shift stop but even this eventually rolled it back to a previous screen loosing all prior inputs.

Update
The update messed up all my progress data. I erased my beginning weight and weight loss.
Bluetooth disasterclass
I’ve spent weeks trying to narrow down what has happened to my Bluetooth. I’ve almost bought new AirPods and even a new phone. Eventually I landed on this app and tried revoking the Bluetooth access when not on a scale, an extra few steps but worth it if it would fix the problem. It didn’t. So I deleted the app and tried again on my daily walk to listen to my podcasts and finally I was able to listen interruption free. Devs need to look at this - it’s constantly trying to connect to every single Bluetooth item everywhere you go. That’s overloading the Bluetooth and causes constant connectivity drops when listening to podcasts, music, videos, etc.

Broken watch app
I thought it was so cool I could capture a weight on my Apple Watch until I tried the app and found it absolutely fails to work.
Caution
This app will mess your Bluetooth connectivity. Other than that it’s fine. Seems like another surveillance app out there. Turn off Bluetooth and network settings after stepping on the scale.
Broken algorithm and absurd fluctuations! Completely unreliable.
I bought the MorphoScan Nova expecting accuracy, but the sensors and the algorithm are completely unstable. I have a recent DEXA scan that measured 27% body fat, but this scale fluctuates in ways that are biologically impossible in just a matter of days.
The absolute worst happened today: I weighed myself right before and right after taking a shower (just 6 minutes apart under the exact same conditions). The result was an unbelievable 5 kg difference in total weight, completely messing up my fat and muscle readings. A few days ago, the app also registered that I gained 8.7 kg of fat and lost 8.6 kg of muscle overnight.
If you are looking for serious health tracking, the charts generated by this app are useless and only serve to confuse you. Do not waste your time and money.
