Review on 📱 Omron Body Composition Monitor and Scale: Track Your Health Progress with Bluetooth Connectivity, 6 Metrics, and Unlimited Reading Storage - Smartphone App by Omron, Black by Blake Pudic

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Stupid/confusing controls/interface, Bluetooth slow, companion app steals data

Poor (Reasons for low rating): Well, the setup is stupid and confusing, as is the interface. It takes a VERY long time to connect Bluetooth, the display isn't backlit so you can't see it in dimly lit rooms. Omron's Health Advisor app bugs me the most: To connect to your phone (apart from the usual heavy upselling), the app asks for permissions for: Contacts, Phone, Location, Storage, Call History, Connections and more. Before you can use it, you have to agree to not ONE, but THREE legal documents of EACH 60 pages. What are you doing with my data? Why do you need to know so much about me and access everything I do on my phone to show me my weight? Pros: Works with Samsung Health without third-party software, shows accurate weight and a bunch of other things you need. not necessary.

Pros
  • Great selection
Cons
  • Mediocre
