Withings

God support. Jeg hadde et problem med kontoen min, og support fra Withings var veldig hode og raske til å fikse opp i problemet når jeg tok kontakt

Bloated with gimmicky features. This app is just a mess of popups notifications and “missions”. Awful attempt of gamification if that is what they tried. I would never have bought the scale if I knew the app was this annoying. The information you actually want (body metrics like weight) gets hidden below the bloat.

Works, but very annoying. It works, connects to the devices, tracks data, easy to use. The incessant notifications and motivational gamification is just too much and gets very annoying very quickly.

Landscape mode on iPad?. I only use my iPad in landscape mode, so it is irritating when apps don’t support landscape

No. To much bugs during the years 👎🏼

Not accurate. The app and their premium subscription offers a lot of data. That’s why I bought the Withings Body Scan scale in the first place. But… after using it (the scale) for some months I really don’t trust the fat percentage measurements. It jumps up and down from day to day. I’ve done everything they ask me to do: Placed the scale in a room with exactly the same temperature day after day. Taken a shower in the morning before stepping on the scale. On other thing in the app: It’s focused on the weight when setting a target. But if you want to stay on the same weight, but change your body composition to a more healthy balance, for example lower body fat, there is no option for that. The conclusion: I bought a very expensive scale and an expensive premium subscription in this app to have a good tool. Sadly it’s everything but accurate. A scale to a 1/4 of the price gives me more consistent measurements of my fat-%. If you don’t care about that, this solution offers a lot of measurements. Question is: Are rest of the measurements accurate?

Scan lite watch. Don’t buy this watch. I have been using it for just over 3 weeks now and found that it incorrectly counts your steps. I have researched why this could be happening, I have reset the clock multiple times, tightened the band etc, everything that is recommended in their troubleshooting section. It’s really frustrating when you have done long hikes and you the watch is saying you’ve done less than 3000 steps for the day. Also, every couple of days it doesn’t track my sleep properly, saying that I’m awake from 3 am. I was very excited to get the watch and think the design is really nice. Unfortunately, I have thrown out the packaging otherwise I would have returned it.

Withings app is now the one being in need of a hard diet.. The app is drowning in non weight related health indicators. People don't buy a weight to have a calorie counter. I can not find body composition of muscle Vs fat etc anymore. But I get two annoying messages every day in the app that my nerve whatever isn't measured. Withings app is now the one being in need of a hard diet. So much bloat and so little lean mass.

Connection. Worse experience for something so simple.

Tre skritt tilbake. Nye appen er helt krise dårlig. Får feilmelding da jeg prøver logge inn med Apple som jeg alltid har gjort og må lage ny bruker. ALT av data er borte og alt den «laster inn» er bare surr.

Constantly wrong activity.. For some reason, The display shows every single day that I am out cycling approx 30 minutes. I do not. I am just Walking. I can’t Get rid of it? I have not activated cycling as an regular activity. So what happens?

Please return the old weight graph. The old weight graph was really useful and beautiful, and it was easy to see weight gained/lost. Thre new graph is just as useless as the weight graph in Apple Health. It is really hard to se what changes unless your weight changes by 5-10kg on a regular basis.

Fix weight graph. Please roll back the tried and tested weight graph with gain/loss at top, all data points and average. The current graph is a Big Step back. And please don’t say “you’ll get used to it”. You could get used to hobbling on one leg, but I bet you’d prefer to have two legs.

useless update. versjon 7 has removed the option of sharing or retrieving specific data series via email or as a data-file download. PDF reports arena substitutt for this when data is usedvanlig to feed into other systems. Why shall we not be abel to extract our own data in other forms than pdf format? This is a big step backwards in vustomer friendliness and right to use own data. Please install these options again.

The worst app. The app completely mismatches the basic user needs. Annoying notifications about random badges, useless graphs, too much information. At the same time hard to find the most important data - my weight, and the history of measurements. The app was giving me „motivating” messages to pull myself together because I’m gaining weight - and I was just pregnant (even in pregnancy mode 😂).

Vanskelig å få til å synkronisere. Vanskelig å få synkronisere med mobil.. plutselig slutter den å snakke med mobilen og målinger blir ikke registrert i app

Stoppes working. After an update, the app won’t lenger open.

Advanced measurements. Afterer a heart attack in december 2022 I have payed a lot more attention to my own health and lost 10% weight. That made med pay more interest in the actual numbers from the body cardio. The advanced measurments for body composition and fat mass cant be correct. I have a BMI in the obese range and a fat% of a well trained athelte according to withings. I have even read the manual av follow the procedures there. When I started reducing my weight (BMI of 36) I had a fat% of 8 according to Withings, now (BMI 31) after deducing my weight 12 kilos it is up to 17%. Maybe this thechology only works for people that have a slim body? I did a control measure on out older Tanita scales and the numbers there makes a lot more sense. I really like the integrations with apple health and the way i can follow my progress, but body composition data are way off.

They went ahead and broke the product. Suddenly they mandate you to register (I can’t think of any other reason than data mining/privacy violations), or your product is bricked. This is absolutely unacceptable. Stay away from this company!

Withings Connect. Far to complicated to use with the revommended app

Its pretty bad. For such expensive gear. Its pretty bad.

Poor. Poor stability of integration with other apps plus poor connectivity stability with their own devices.

👍🏼. Too many notifications that takes up unessecary space in the app. Not a good way to remove them.

Not userfriendly. Difficult to contact support, little to non userfriendliness

Buggy design and not iser friendly. Leaves a lot to be desired in usability and if the implementation and key data points how reliable can this app and the data really be? For example the”metabolic age”, a key feature and data point has the actual result partially cut by the overlaying image.

Pregnancy setting?. In 2024 I find it hard to believe that there is no way to log that you are pregnant. Instead I have to accept that the charts tell me I am overweight. This would be very useful for many people, so please consider it as an improvement

so-so app and service. can’t connect to Strava, so just hangs when trying to set up synchronisation

Too complex. This app is too complex. To many clicks, not logical placement of categories and items. Even setting up the account and logging in was complicated, with random errors at every step.

Slow and useless. it takes minutes to open data details view (for example body composition). Latest iPhone latest iOS

Batteries doesn't last long. And it doesn't alwsys save my latest weight

Fleire språk. Kunne godt vore på norsk

App dont sync with online dashboard.. This app is useless when it won’t sync with dashboard. To view my measurements I have to go online. I had no problem with the old Health mate.

Roll back to old version. Obviuosly a failed release, graphs are useless. Avoid app and products until fixed

Useless when pregnant. Never recognizes me after pregnancy

Latest update breaks app. Ever since we got the new update the app and scale never manages to identify the user. It’s 50kg difference between me and the wife but it still doesn’t know which user is weighing in. …and please remove all the stupid achievements! At least make them optional, it’s just spam!

Horrible update. I loved the app before this latest update. I mainly use it to track my weightloss progress. The latest update removed the active feedback on exactly how much you’ve lost/gained over time. I usually just went to the yearly overview and had the answer at the top of the page. Now it just says whatever trend you’re on. I hate it. It’s not like it’s gonna help anyone who’s struggling if that’s the intended purpose of this update. Just about anyone can do simple math. But, it’s removed the convenience for everyone, same goes if you’re looking to pack on muscles. Also, the health insight thing is just annoying…

Updates. it is incredibly annoying that you are asked to update the app when you open it, run update in the background so that it updates automatically so that it is ready to use when you need it

Do not upgrade if you have BMP Core. Listening to heart sound recording is no longer possible. It is clearly a bug, as the Heart Sound (Apex Area) details section now shows a big blue «Play ECG» button instead of the old big play-arrow, and when activated plays no sound. Actually, swiping gently to the right and up on the bottom left part of the screen changes the text «Play ECG» to just «Play», but still no audio is available in the app. The heart sound is actually still recorded and being evaluated: In version 6.5.3 (11 Pro, iOS 17.6.1) both old and new sound recordings are available, whilst on version 7.0.0 (15 Pro Max, iOS 17.6.1) neither old nor new sound recordings are available. Basic application Quality Assurance has failed for this new major release 7.0.0.

Sync with Apple Health doesn't work. Latest update broke sync with Apple Health. Weight measurements aren't being updated. The UI is pretty useless. "Stable weight" is meaningless. I need precise weekly average changes.

Stopped working after latest update. Otherwise fine

Lost contact with my scales. The app has lost contact with my Body + scales and I am not able to reconnect even after following the resetting procedure for the scales. The scales are not possible to use without the connection to the app. Very annoying.

Messue. The messure failed yusless.

Many years pleased user. Since Jawbone (UP wristband) went bankrupt many years ago I switced to Withings. I have scanwatch, matress, weight and thermoneter. I could give 5 stats but for one thing. To track meals and sync with withings, they use «my fitness pal» which I think is unbelievably bad. My fitness pal focuses on calories, not nutrision. Today everybody should know its NOT about «calories in and calories out». Also they call weight loss «progress» instead of «change» - provoking to everyone who just try to stay healthy and perhaps gain muscle mass. I wish withings finds a meal tracker app /partner who focus on health, or better; that their next thing is to have this in the withings app 😊

Locking. Withings have started to lock built in features behind a paid subscription and it is unacceptable.

Great app, but could be even better!. Feels like there are to many clicks somehow. Was difficult to find “unknown” weight/BP registrations. Would be nice with a feature for blood pressure that allows you to do hourly BP as a 24 h monitoring to map out a whole days worth. I’d also appreciate the option to mute all the badges. Doesn’t add any value for me.

Nice when it works. Constantly not syncing weight results, log in and out again and it works for one or two days 😢

Push notifications won’t go away. The notification Continue Discovering ScanWatch keeps popping up and I can’t stop it.

Whitings🙂. The BEST there is 👍🏻

Okay. I wish there was another goal than weight- such as strength or endurance or other goals. I don’t like that the app tells me to weight myself to see my improvement. I don’t have a weight goal. Also, why did you take away the different types of training, there is just running now and you need to edit that afterwards.

My review. The app works well. I watch all my health records such as walking, weight, heartbeats and how many calories I burn every day. It is amazing to have such technology which helps record your health. I suggest to my friends to have the app.

Stop hiding tab bar please.... It's annoying that the tab bar is hidden when going into some details. This is also breaking Apples "HIG", and making navigation unnecessarily cumbersome. It defies the intent and purpose of the tab bar. Also: I'd go premium for half the price. When all apps/services require subscriptions, it quickly adds up. 2-3 levels of subscription could be a good idea? E.g: I don't need any programs... just more nerdy stats and analysis.

Scope. Withings lacks scope. Like a health department not knowing the patient’s diagnosis.

Alarm. I want to set an alarm to 06:29. Why is that not possible? I can only select 06:30 or 06:25.

LN. I’ve set up individual user profiles for myself and my kids, but the scale consistently fails to recognize who is using it. Measurements are often assigned to the wrong person, which makes the graphs and data unreliable. This really limits the value of the app for families. Hope this issue gets fixed soon.

Tomas. I don’t think developers ever use their own app. Adding measurement? Poor UX. Deleting measurement? Wrong indexing so you delete a different measurement than the one you swipe on. Horrendous testing. Want to view custom to-from dates on graphs? Forget about it. You’re an embarrassment to your own trade with this so please don’t quit your day jobs.

Paid program doesn’t work. The rest is good. The subscription never gave a result. Paid one month and cancelled because nothing ever showed.

Lise. Umulig å få inn vekta og finne ut av

Hilde. Upcoming alarm - only possible to have one alarm after the latest update.

Trond. Will it be possible to have the app in Norwegian ?

B. After the last update, the app has become a visual nightmare! Syncing to other apps rarely or never works.

Loooooong sync time. Sync from withings scale to app takes hours, if not days. Want your new weight into Apple health today? Too bad, you should have gotten on the scale yesterday. App also stuck on “loading” and takes several open/close app cycles to finally load new data like steps and sleep (except for new weight measurements of course). App is nice when it works, but something is seriously broken.

Not bad, but annoying bugs. Trying to connect a BMP Connect. It connects effortlessly. The problem starts when it automatically checks for firmware updates: it quickly tells me that the firmware is up to date, but the app seems to softlock with the button below seemingly working on something, but there is no explanation for what it is working on. It sort of looks like it wants me to wait for a firmware update even if the firmware doesn’t need updating. Either explain what I’m waiting for and how long I need to wait, or just let me skip this step.

Tor Jan Endresen. For få språk på app. Ikke norsk

Vari. After last update, all my data was gone 😥 6 years of daily tracking… so disappointed 😢

Not userfriendly app. Home screen cannot be rearranged, topics can not be deleted or unpinned, and the actual measurements from the scale is hidden far, far down. The top banner is «cycle», which I never use, and next ones are stats taken from my apple watch. It seems this app has tried to copy apple’s health app, but failed.

Krissern. It should be possible to change the app appearance from dark mode to light mode. I would also love if it was possible to set the language to norwegian

Ewa. After a couple of months the app stopped to synchronize with the scale and nothing helps to bring it back. I like the scale, the app gives some useful insights, but is useless because its instability.

Ole. Requires you to link with your personal email account for smooth access and use of the app. Sharing biomarkers and linking them up with your gmail is not advisable, and I wouldn’t do it in a million years if I had the choice (as should you). Withings leaves me no choice

Øyvind. The app is becoming more and more annoying. Lots of advertising and clutter that makes viewing the information cumbersome. Just replaced my old withings watch, but might consider a different brand anyway..

Bruker. Verste appen og unøyaktig vekt, her bør du styre unna, The most annoying app ever, absolute rubbish UX,they try to collect so much data, focusing on everything besides weight measuring.

Jane. I do like the app, but it’s lacking a pregnancy feature. I’m in my second pregnancy whilst using the app, and really wish the app could have an “understanding” for the weight gain, sleep disturbances and so on.

Several features stopped working. The svale drops syncing on a regular basis. Usually because og the batteries, but since it says that it has a lot of battery time left one forgets to replace the batteries. Other times it is a mystery. After the recent updates it shows me all the stats from other apps but not my weight, which is the only thing the scale is supposed to focus on!

Morten. Nice app, a little unintuitive to begin with, but getting the hang of it. In some instances when user is asked «yes» or «no» the text is not displayed, but the buttons still work.

Step length. The length of the steps is far too long and the distance calculated from this is not nearly accurate

Basic functionality isn’t working. Spam spam spam. Ever since we got the new update the app and scale never manages to identify the user. It’s 50kg difference between me and the wife but it still doesn’t know which user is weighing in. …and please remove all the stupid achievements! At least make them optional, it’s just spam!

The app doesn’t work on MacBook. I use the app daily on my phone but it doesn’t work on my MacBook

Bad app.. Bad sync. with device.

Adrian. Kjøpte vekten men den likte ikkje å ha fleire profiler og tilslutt fikk eg ikkje registrert no på meg lenger…. Masse styr med Bluetooth så ikkje ville registrere

Hei. Den er bra app

I cant add another user... How do i add another user to my profile? I want all of the user on the same profil…

Data lost!. I have just updated Health Mate and it became withings without any warning! I lost all health records/data that was logged in health mate past years!

Notifications stopped working. The notification function stopped working with the new version. All other syncing between app and watch is still working

Lars. Selve produktene er gode, men tilhørende applikasjoner er meget svake innen administrasjon av brukere. Feilmeldinger uten gode forklaringer, virker som svake utviklere med erfaring på lage gode feilmeldinger. Kjøpt vekten body scan, men kun 1 person klarer å benytte den. Den som installerer. Ved forsøk på invitere andre i familien fungerer IKKE

Kea. I am unsure about the accuarecy?

Fat measures are wrong. Obviously wrong fat measures. Its kinda frustrating that you claim to be able to measure bodyfat when it clearly isnt near to give correct results. I took a real bodyfat test on a tanita scale and it showes 12% bodyfat, on the whitings body smart it says 22% bodyfat…

Worked until 2023 and then only weight worked. Bought the scale in late 2022 and it worked ok for the first 9 months but then it stopped taking body measurements. You can get one record once in 50 tries …

Huse. Problemet fungerer ikke etter oppdatering

Does anything but showing my weight. It has a hundred of features but i have spend hours to find where id my weight change showed. I am not interested it seeing anything else please stop making this trend ov making a rocket og any device

Settings not working. Can’t set heart rate notifications

Mr Dvod. It’s impossible to make it work and all you get for help is a bot chat

Please undo all the changes you made!. The Withings app was a 5-star app. It was really good. Now it is a visual mess, it lost all the upsides and have nothing that makes buying Withings products worth it. Avoid this app and all associated products.

Bricks your old device. After installing new version of the app my product is now effectively bricked. Pure incompetence. Old device not compatible with new version of the app and will not go through the setup process. Planned obsolescence at its finest. This is probably even illegal but they don’t seem to care since the issue has persisted for a long time despite several threads concerning the issue on their own official forums.

Lila. Something went wrong. Suddenly everything is in Spanish. No way to change language…

Bjarne. I want Norwegian language in the app. Then the experience will be even better for me.

Hard to get anything done. Difficult to use app, so many things are hidden. Like how do I set up which profiles are on my scale? How do is we who else is using my device? There are several flows in the app that you can’t abort out of, so if you started it you either need to complete it or kill the app and restart it. Out of sync data with the web page. Not able to add profiles for unassigned measurements. So I can assign them to me or delete them, not send them to the person they belong to. They need to hire a (new) ux person or two to look at this horrible user experience.

Data lost. The app got «updated» somehow. I seem to have lost all my data, and I can’t record new data. The app is a holy mess of «advice» and «articles» I have no interest in. I just want to record my blood pressure and body weight.

Inger. Sliter ned å koble den til fitbit klokke

Great app, but could be even better!. Would be nice with a feature for blood pressure device that allows you to do automatic hourly BP as a 24 h monitoring to measure a whole days worth. Would make it easier to show the GP the daytime and nighttime variations Feels like there are to many clicks somehow. Was difficult to find “unknown” weight/BP registrations. I’d also appreciate the option to mute all the badges. Doesn’t add any value for me.

Thorbjørn. Lost several measurements in last update and now have to pay for them. I am going to but a Samsung watch instead
