Weight Chart helps to monitor your weight and waist circumference over time. Newer studies show that a waist to height ratio of over 0.5 increases the risk of cardiovascular diseases, a ratio over 0.6 significantly. It's a better measure than the well known body mass index (BMI) because it takes the distribution of fat into account more accurately.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: Record BMI at Free against Weight Chart's $0.99. Record BMI also leads on update cadence (every 2 months vs every 6 months). Weight Chart's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 18.4). On ads and device support there is nothing between them.
