Measurement method

From a medical standpoint, the analytical results provided
by the scale are only of an approximate nature. Only a
medical specialist is capable of performing exact
measurements of the percentage of body fat, body water, muscle or
bone mass using special medical instruments.
The scale uses very low voltage to measure your physical data. The
voltage is transmitted through your body, that is, through the different
parts of your body. In the process, the current encounters different
resistances. Water and muscle tissue have a low resistance making
them good conductors. Fat and bone are poor conductors and
therefore exhibit a high resistance.
These resistances or impedances are measured and used to calculate
the percentages of water, bone and muscle based on individual
physical characteristics such as height, age and gender. This method of
measurement is known as the "bioelectric impedance analysis" (BIA).
Compatibility
The following smartphones and tablets with Bluetooth®(Bluetooth® 4.0
and higher) are compatible with the scale and the app:
• Apple® iPhone® 4s and more recent versions
• Apple® iPad® 3rd generation and more recent versions
• Apple® iPad mini™ of the 1st generation and more recent
versions
• Apple® iPad Air™ and more recent versions
• Smartphones and tablets with Android™ 4.3 and more recent
versions
You can find a detailed list of compatible devices on our website.

Use without app
If you use the scale without the app, the scale is only
capable of correctly determining your weight. Without the
app all other measurements are performed using standard
parameters and will therefore be more or less inaccurate.
Furthermore, the measured data will not be saved on the scale if you
use the scale without the app.
In order to calculate your percentage of body fat, body water, muscle
mass, bone mass as well as your BMI, AMR and BMR, the scale requires
individual parameters such as your gender, height and age. However, it is
not possible to enter these parameters on the scale itself, instead this must
be done with the app or on our website (see chapter "Creating a user
account").
If these individual parameters are not entered, the resulting
measurements may differ considerably from the actual individual
values. Thus, weight will be displayed without user recognition if the
app is not used. We recommend using the scale in combination with
the app.
