OmronBody Composition Monitor and Scale - Track Muscle Mass Loss/Gain, Weight, Visceral Fat, BMI - Use OMRON Connect App for Unlimited Storage

Got this scale to try and have better accounting of my wellness journey. I had a different brand that, although worked fine if it was just me, it wouldn't work for my husband, which caused him frustration with trying to complete the same goal. That brand would use Health Connect to have their app talk to Samsung Health, and it would send the information over........ eventually, which neither of us liked. We needed something that would send the information as if it was being done directly through the Samsung Health app.I actually stumbled upon this scale when I was looking at one of Omron's wireless BP monitors, I decided to download the app first and see how they share the information, boom, direct link, I was excited at that point. Went ahead and purchased the scale, got it all set up and Bluetooth connected, stepped on the scale when turned off, beeped at me when it was done, gave me the go ahead to press the SET button, boom, information transmitted to the Omron app that immediately sent to the Samsung Health app, I'm so freaking happy 😁 Got hubby get set up as well, he's happy with it so far ❤️This scale can also link to Google Fit, which is kinda funny since we both have Google phones but we both have Samsung Galaxy Watch Ultra and Samsung Smart Ring, so we just go ahead and use the Samsung Health app instead. This is going to be super helpful in order to record and track our weight and stuff as we work on trying to better our health, Omron has been around for quite a while and I knew they have good BP monitors so I'm certain this scale is gonna be great 👍🏻

Having had a recent health crisis which made it clear that I needed better methods of monitoring my health, I began searching for a superior product, while keeping in mind features vs cost. My cardiologist recommended the Omron line of scales, and while I'd already purchased a lesser scale (Health-o-Meter), I was impressed by the features offered by the BCM-500 from Omron. While it provides percentages of your visceral and body fat, and skeletal muscle, it also provides your BMI and resting metabolism numbers, all of which can be monitored over time on the Omron app (via Bluetooth sync) on your smartphone. While this may sound like a rehash of their own ads, it is actually quite helpful when used to monitor progress over time.It is particularly interesting to watch the fat and muscle numbers change as your body changes, and gives reinforcement that your habits are working.I'm in weight loss mode, and I know this works for me now. But I'm quite looking forward to see how it helps me once I am done losing weight, and transition to maintaining it, while building muscle and leaning out. I'm sure it's the perfect scale for me!

Omron makes good old school (Base/Hose/Cuff) BP readers. Everyting else they produce is a hot mess. Blue Tooth connections are flaky at best, mostly nonfunctional. The Omron Connect app SOMETIMES connect to ONE Omron device BUT CANNOT connect to multiple Omron devices at the same time EVER. The written manual is unclear and mostly confusing. Clicking on a HELP button connects to an online IN YOUR FACE high pressure product sales onslaught. The is NO HELP to be found anywhere on their site. The only option (which you HAVE TO DO. . . NO EXCEPTIONS) is sign up for their newsletter which you can (MAYBE) opt out on at a later date while getting frequent high pressure sales pitches on a regular basis. If you're looking for old school HP readers probably ok. All other high tech wannabe products should be avoided IMHO

last year I ended up in the E.R. When I got out I was having to take my blood pressure everyday. A friend told me about the blood pressure monitor and how it logged to your phone automatically. I started using it and like it so much that I started looking at this scale. I have had it for about 6 to 8 months now. It seems to be really accurate. Overall I am happy with it. It looks nice. Battery has lasted well. Has good range to my phone. I can leave my phone anywhere in the house and it will record my weight. Good size display. App has a nice layout.There are just a few things that could be better.First thing, is my kids like to play with it. Since I am set up as number 1 my phone records their weight. I wish there was some way it started in guest mode and you had to switch it.Second, the app will log you out sometimes. You have to check it regularly or it will not record your weight.Third, if your feet are really dry it will not finish the process. I don’t really care about the other info it reads, I only care about my weight. But if it doesn’t finish reading everything it will not record your weight in the app. So it gets frustrating having to make sure it reads your BMI. I find it works better if you put lotion on your feet, and focus on where you put your feet on the scale. Maybe if the pads were bigger it would help. I don’t really know. I wanted to give it 5 stars but I think it is just a little too finicky.

I love this weight scale it provides more than just weight! It also reports on BMI & Metabolism and has other options as well. Best of all I bought using my HSA card. Worth ever dollar! 💵

Just had my first DEXA scan and am very pleased to report that the body fat composition reading matched what my Omron scale has been telling me. Highly recommend. The only drawback is that the Omron app/scale does not easily sync with my Fitbit and other tracking apps. There is a way to sync it with Google Fit and then sync Google Fit to other apps though.
