Works sometimes - Digital

I've been using this scale for about 3 months now. A big plus is that they sync very easily with the Bluetooth app. All you have to do is open it and step on the scale. I've had an issue or two where the app crashes and needs to be restarted. But overall it was a positive experience with the app. The main problems are related to its accuracy and factors affecting weight calculation. What is important for Libra. I tested it on multiple surfaces, carpet, bath rug and tile floor. Carpet doesn't fit at all. The bath mat was slightly better, but the weight still shifted a lot. Hard floor is the only surface I would recommend using this scale on if you need an accurate reading. So now I have a scale in a special corner of my bathroom and everything seems fine. When I step on it for the first time every day it seems high and after stepping on it again I suddenly lose 4-5 pounds. After that it remains constant. I can live with it. But recently I've started gaining 20-30 pounds in minutes until I turn them off and on and then step on them again. The reason I bought this scale was because I thought it would be fun to have a Bluetooth enabled scale that easily synced with my health apps. At this point, however, it has become tedious to correct incorrect weights and readjust the scale several times. For me, the accuracy and fluctuations were just bad. Even if it stays constant, it's 2-3 pounds different from what my old fashioned but very accurate scale says. Overall I cannot recommend this scale due to accuracy issues. It might be better to invest in a more reliable Bluetooth scale, or even just a well-made regular scale.
