I think Withings is a great option as it is now owned by Nokia and they are a 
big player in the health industry so I doubt they are going anywhere.

Subject: iOS 15 Broke My Weight scale

Hi All:
Well I”ve been pretty fortunate until now. I purchased the Beats blu scale some 
years ago and although it has been long gone from the App Store, it has 
continued to work fairly well. I decided yesterday to update to iOS 15, and 
that’s the end of that for my poor scale app.
The scale works wonderfully of course, but absolutely no good to me.
So what are people currently using that works with iOS 15? I thought about 
purchasing the Withings scale which has been around a long time and probably 
still gets updates, but I’m open for comments on that or other options.
I do need to resolve this soon so all suggestions welcome. Accessibility is 
more important than price, and the most important is that perhaps it’s still 
getting actual updates and might be supported a while.

Re: iOS 15 Broke My Weight scale

[Robin Frost]

Hi,

Again I don't have this scale but do have their blood pressure monitor 
and if it's any indication set up  was easy as can be and was 
accessible. There was one point at which I had to briefly turn on screen 
recognition to find a register button. But that was the only momentary 
hurtle.


It connects to the phone via bluetooth. You mentioned wi-fi I didn't 
read the documentation for the scale but thought it connected the same 
way but perhaps I'm wrong.  If it does however you shouldn't have any 
issues. When you first open the app it'll ask you which device you have, 
walk you through setting up an account with them and then there's 
usually a tutorial walking you through set up and first usage.


I hope that helps.

Take good care.

Robin

I also like that it has the rechargeable battery which seems to only
require an annual charge.
If anyone does have this, how easy was it to set upt he WIFI portion
in the first place?

I have their blood pressure monitor and find their app to be quite

might fit the bill.

Take good care.
