The dashboard shows all your key stats together with an interactive graph that visualises your progress. One of the key features of Weight-Mate is the ability to submit weigh-ins in a different unit to that displayed throughout the rest of the app. For example, do you prefer to see your weight-loss journey displayed in Stones and Pounds but your new set of scales only measures in Kilograms or Pounds? No problem in Weight-Mate! Simply set the App and Graph Display to Stones and the Weigh-in setting to Pounds or Kilograms. The app handles all required conversions for you to make everything simple. Features: * Free to use with a Plus version available for a small fee. * Track your weight-loss journey visually. * See total weight-loss and progress to target at-a-glance. * Show or hide the BMI information and see your Healthy Range. * Weigh-in in a different unit to the app display. * Weight history is stored securely and privately in iCloud so you won't lose your weigh-in history if you change your phone. * Apple Health Integration (Plus only) * Landscape Mode (Plus only) * Item Zoom (Plus only) * Gold 'Plus' Icon (Plus only) If you're not ready to upgrade to Weight-Mate Plus then please consider making a small donation to the developer if you find it useful. You can find the donation facility in the 'Settings'.
