Review on Beurer BF70 Body Fat Scale: Smart Digital Scale for Full Body Analysis, App Sync via Bluetooth, BMI & Calorie Display – Grey by John Bosch

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Bluetooth, sync and the app are a complete mess.

The scales look good after unpacking. I was able to connect it to my phone using the Beurerererer app from the Play Store. While it doesn't support Google Fit, Revain, or any other health apps, it doesn't mention it, so I was disappointed but not surprised. From the outset, the functionality of the app is limited to providing the scale with space to store measured values and providing information on height and age *on* the scale. The app only supports one user. So if you want to enter multiple users on the scale to measure BMI etc., everyone needs to download the app on their phone. For the first two weeks of use this seemed like a great product. The scale will not sync with the app. The Bluetooth icon appears every half dozen times I step on it. The instructions describe how the scale saves information and sends it to the app when the app is open within Bluetooth range. This doesn't happen. Do not buy if you expect it to work as described. If you need a scale to measure BMI, body fat percentage, water and more, buy one that doesn't need to be paired with a broken app for half the price. If you want a scale to track and control your progress with medical services from Apple, Google or Samsung, or even your own software, look elsewhere.

Pros
  • Body analysis scales
Cons
  • So far so good
