Your weight moves two kilos in a day. Salt, water, what you had for dinner. If you're actually losing fat, you're losing about 400 grams a week. Five times smaller than the noise sitting on top of it. Every other weight app draws that noise and leaves the filtering to you. You did everything right, the number went up, and you talk yourself out of it. That's where people quit. Steady filters. Drag a ruler to your weight, it goes into Apple Health, and you see one smoothed line. THE LINE An exponentially weighted moving average over your whole history. A 1.5 kg salt spike moves the line by 0.27 kg and fades. The reading shows up as a dot well off the line. The line barely notices. Week charts fit a straight line through seven readings, because over seven points smoothing still wobbles and tells you nothing. Year charts smooth weekly averages a second time. TWO SCREENS Log is a ruler you drag. It clicks every 100 grams and starts where you were yesterday. No keypad, no picker wheel. Trend is one chart and four figures: today, yesterday, your seven-day average, and your change per week. The trend gets the big number. Today's reading doesn't. The daily number is the noise. NOT IN IT No account. No subscription. No ads. No streaks, no badges, no notifications. No settings, because units and appearance follow your phone. No green for down and no red for up, because colour-coding a measurement turns it into a verdict. YOUR DATA Your weight lives in Apple Health and nowhere else. No server, no analytics, no network code of any kind. Steady works in airplane mode, permanently. We can't see your weight. Neither can Apple. SHORTCUTS Put the log screen on your Home Screen, Lock Screen or Action Button. Or write a reading from a Shortcut without opening the app. Made by Levo Studio.
