Body Smart - Accurate Scale for Body Weight and Fat Percentage, Body Composition Wi-Fi and Bluetooth Weight Scale, Baby Weight Scale, Smart Scale Apple Health Compatible, Bathroom Scale

We spent a lot of time researching smart scales, and it was honestly hard to decide which one to go with. We ended up purchasing both the Withings Body Smart and the Hume Body Pod to compare them side by side. At first, I thought we would prefer the Hume Body Pod because it analyzes more of the body and provides more detailed body composition data. However, after using both consistently, we definitely prefer the Withings. What we love about the Withings: 1. It feels sturdier and more premium 2. Slightly larger platform, which I personally prefer 3. The screen is significantly better—larger, full color, easier to read, and more visually intuitive 4. Biggest advantage: Wi-Fi connectivity The Wi-Fi feature is a game-changer. You don’t need your phone nearby for the Withings to record your data. It syncs automatically. With the Hume, you must have your phone open and connected during the entire measurement process. I ran into multiple issues where my data didn’t record due to my phone screen timing out before completion or errors. It became frustrating very quickly. While you can adjust phone settings, I don’t want that extra step just to take a measurement. With the Withings, I can simply step on the scale, and everything works seamlessly every time. App comparison: The Hume app might be slightly more detailed at first glance, but once I got used to the Withings app, it provides everything I actually need. Accuracy: Obviously, no home scale is perfect, but when comparing results to past lab data and weigh-ins, the Withings measurements were much more consistent and aligned. The Hume readings were often significantly higher and didn’t seem to correlate as well. Bottom line: The Withings is the clear winner for us. It’s more reliable, easier to use, and fits better into daily life. I also love that our whole family can use it and track progress without any hassle. Highly recommend.

I really like this scale. Withings does a good job of connecting with other platforms, which is a big deal if you already track health data in multiple apps. It pairs well across my setup, and I like being able to use the scale to write the data while letting other apps read those metrics. It works well with platforms like MyFitnessPal and makes it easier to keep everything flowing together instead of having your information stuck in one app. That convenience alone adds a lot of value. It’s obviously not an InBody machine, but it’s also a lot more than just a basic bathroom scale. For the price, it’s a solid option if you want something smart, reliable, and easy to integrate into your routine.

I can’t recall ever writing a one-star negative review on Amazon, but unfortunately, Withings has policies in place that are so egregious and so far below what is normal among health products firms for customer support that I think that this info deserves to be shared. I purchased a Withings Body Smart Scale in June 2023 that came with a two year warranty. A few weeks ago (January 2024) the scale’s weight accuracy became erratic and its body scanning also became erratic. (Please see the attached image of the 2.3 lb variance in six simultaneous weighings for the same person). After going through Withings’ trouble shooting and not solving these issues, I attempted to reach out to the company with a warranty claim. That was easier said than done. Withings does not publish ANY contact information on its website. No telephone number, no email address, no physical address, no “contact us” form. Clicking on the “Contact Us” button loops back to a FAQ list. One needs to wade through and decipher a bunch of URLs to actually find a means to contact Withings customer support. [Pro tip: the Better Business Bureau lists Withings’ telephone number and provides a “Contact this business” email form.] It isn’t easy to find, but Withings does offer an appointment calendar for customers who need to speak to a customer service or tech support person. I sought an appointment on their calendar. Withings scheduled it THREE MONTHS OUT for a simple warranty claim. So in order to file a warranty claim Withings wanted to make me wait three months??? [3/8/24 update: My call with Withings Tech Support was scheduled for today. After waiting almost three months, Withings did not show up for the call. I sent an email to the Withings person who was scheduled for the call, who did not respond to my email.] Withings' “Chat” function on their website is not staffed during at least some of the hours that it claims to be open. I waited for 7 hours during one day a few weeks ago and my chat request was never responded to. In looking through the Withings Forums and at Withings’ BBB complaints, I found that for at least the past two years, customers with tech support questions or warranty claims had found it near impossible to get in touch with Withings support staff. Clearly my experience wasn’t an anomaly—Withings apparently had been treating all of its customers just as poorly. After a few days in attempting to reach Withings, I filed a complaint with the Better Business Bureau based on Withings' policy of making it difficult, if not impossible, for their customers to file valid warranty claims. [Note: the BBB give Withings a “D-” rating.] The day after I filed the BBB complaint, Withings got in touch. They sent me an email asking for details on the warranty claim. I provided the details they requested. Withings ignored the data I provided that evidenced that the scale was not performing to spec, told me that the scale was performing properly and that it did not need to be replaced. I asked Withings multiple times via email to address the evidence I provided that proved that the scale was defective. At no point in weeks of email exchanges did Withings ever actually address the problems I was having with the scale, and always continued to claim that the scale was performing correctly, even though simultaneous weighings for the same person a few minutes apart varied by more than two lbs, while the scale is supposed to be accurate to +/- .1 lb, the scanning function only functions intermittently, and the scale is only six months into a two year warranty. The bottom line: there is overwhelming evidence that Withings has policies in place to limit customer interaction and to prevent customers from being able to make valid warranty claims on defective Withings products. I have been a Withings user for a number of years and this was my fourth Withings scale. Withings used to have normal service and support, but that has now obviously changed. Buyer beware.

I wanted a new body fat scale since my 5 year old one’s battery was starting to have a problem holding a charge. Body smart is sleek looking and AFAIK gives accurate weight. Body fat percentage seems consistent from day to day but I guess I won’t know if it’s in the right ballpark unless I do a dexa scan or some other method. Downgrading a star because the app is aggressive and terrible. So many sales pitches for upgrading to their expensive premium subscription. It’s hard to find your weight and body fat because there is so much other stuff I don’t want on my scale such as sleep, activity, dubious health scores, many many things. It grabs data from Apple health, glucose from Lingo, etc and plots graphs.. please. I’d rather view this on Apple Health or the Lingo app. it tries to sell me on their coaching. There doesn’t seem to be any way to pare all this down on the free app. Who wants to subscribe to a bathroom scale?

The app is surprisingly easy to use. It pairs automatically on the first. For any subsequent pairings the button is on the bottom of the scale. The free version of the app tells you your body composition (muscle vs fat) your fitness level, whether each measure is high, low, or normal, and your trends over time. It also gives guidance on how to improve. The scale takes a few seconds, then tells you your weight, percentage of muscle, percentage of fat, and visceral fat and shows the normal range. It also shows the user it thinks it’s measuring, your heart rate, the air quality index, and the day’s temperature. That’s a lot of information for a simple scale. I should point out, if you’re looking for this for someone such an an elderly person who has balance issues and can’t stand evenly with weight distributed on both feet and no winning side to side this won’t work. It’s very sensitive to any shift in weight. It will make its best guess and report an error. It also won’t shut off after that, simply display that estimate weight, which is both a privacy concern and a battery drain.

Reliable Smart Scale With Great Connectivity I’ve been using the Withings Body Smart for a few weeks, and overall it’s a solid choice for accurately tracking your weight and basic body metrics. The scale is sleek, feels well-made, and gives consistent weight readings that sync automatically to your phone via Wi-Fi and Bluetooth — so you can easily view trends over time in the Withings Health Mate app. 📊 Easy Setup & Syncing Setup was straightforward, and linking it to the app went smoothly. Once connected, your weight data uploads automatically, and it integrates nicely with Apple Health and other platforms. 🏋️‍♂️ Useful Metrics Beyond Weight Besides weight, this smart scale provides body composition insights like body fat and muscle mass, which is helpful for tracking progress if you’re on a fitness or health journey. It even shows information like water percentage and visceral fat trends over time. 💡 Things to Know • Some users report that advanced metrics like body composition can fluctuate and are best used to track trends rather than clinical precision. • A few reviews mention mixed experiences with app functionality and occasional connectivity quirks — but most find the core weight tracking to be reliable. 👍 Pros: • Accurate and consistent weight measurements • Automatic Wi-Fi/Bluetooth syncing • Tracks multiple health metrics over time • Works with major health apps 👎 Cons: • Body composition readings can vary • App setup and syncing isn’t always perfect Overall: ⭐⭐⭐⭐☆ — A dependable smart scale for anyone who wants easy weight tracking and basic health insights with seamless smartphone integration.

Upgraded from my earlier model that was about six years old. This is a welcome improvement with added metrics and easy to use interface/application. Compared weight measurements with another scale and it's spot on. Great value for all it does.

I purchased the Withings Body Smart scale several months ago, and have been using it regularly. The packaging was excellent, very well thought out, Apple style. It even contained a pair of Duracell batteries. The scale works great, and the information it provides is clear and useful. But the iPhone app is basically trash. They designed it as a “marketplace”, not as a usable app. It’s bloated, with tons of unnecessary options that try to upsell you more hardware and subscriptions, unintuitive interface, hard to find information. Critically, sync is a disaster. Often, my scale fails to sync for days or weeks, even after a hard quit of the app, restart phone, update the app, and update the link between device and app. Apparently, the Body Smart can’t be synced directly with third party apps, so, basically it’s only good for spot information (weight, BMI, body fat mass, muscle mass, water mass, lean muscle mass, visceral fat and standing heart rate). I would not buy this brand again.

Gör sitt jobb, snabb och enkel att komma igång med. Bra med integration till Apple Health från Withings-appen. Skönt att inte behöva ha telefonen med nån app igång nära vågen när man väger sig, liten detalj som har stort värde.

Produit de luxe, arrive emballé comme un iMac. Très beau, pratique d’utilisation avec l’application. La balance est très précise surtout lorsque l’on multiplie les pesées au début. Permet de savoir plusieurs données comme % masse grasse, muscle, eau, graisse viscérale, battement cardiaque. Très bon produit pour suivre son évolution, et l’application permets de la noter sans effort ! À ne pas utiliser pour quelqu’un de 170kg ou plus, un des pieds s’est fragilisé et la pesée d’après n’était pas exacte

La báscula Withings destaca por su buena calidad de construcción y sus mediciones rápidas. Aunque no tengo forma de verificar su precisión exacta, confío en la fiabilidad de los datos que ofrece. Puntos positivos: Las indicaciones en pantalla son claras y fáciles de interpretar, lo que facilita su uso diario. Aspectos a mejorar: La importación de datos de otras básculas es un poco complicada y podría simplificarse. La aplicación es funcional, pero se beneficiaría de mayor personalización y de la opción de ocultar las funciones de pago, que resultan un tanto invasivas. En general, es una báscula de calidad con margen de mejora en el aspecto de la app, pero cumple bien con su propósito.

A mi me encanta esta báscula, es bonita, configurable y funciona bien. En cuanto a la confianza siempre soy un poco escéptico porque se debería de comprar con algo fiable. Aún así, la recomiendo y es la que estoy usando, antes tenia una TANITA.

The WITHINGS Body Smart scale is a fantastic addition to my fitness journey. It’s sleek, modern, and incredibly easy to set up via Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. The readings are accurate and consistent, covering not just weight, but also body fat, muscle mass, BMI, and more. The Health Mate app syncs seamlessly and provides clear insights into my progress over time. I especially like the multi-user feature—it automatically recognizes different users in the household. For anyone serious about tracking their health in detail, this scale is absolutely worth it. Highly recommended!
