Only Shows Ideal BMI in KG. What happened to this app? I’ve used it for years and it’s been great. I helped a friend download it, and it only shows her ideal BMI in kilograms. I deleted mine and reinstalled it thinking I could find how I set mine up, but now it shows ideal BMI in kilograms too. There is no way to show the ideal weight in pounds. The app is now useless.

Changes lbs and height. I put in my height in and it changes my eight and the other way around. Telling me I’m obese at 5”8 and 120.

Last update. Since the last update, unable to input weight
- ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific
BMI is an outdated method. Wake up people. Please do yourself a favor and find better information than a BMI index. It really is an outdated scale.
- ★★★★★inaccurate results and incorrect data
Not accurate!!. I’m 11 years old, 5’2, and 124 pounds but it called me “overweight”??? I wear extra small shirts! Anyways, when I switched the gender from girl to boy it called 124 underweight? WTH? Anyways, thanks for reading, this app is trash

Triggering. Very triggering, I dont recommend if you have unhealthy relationships with food or body.
- ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions
Ads. The ads are intrusive and intolerable, and there is no paid version.
- ★★★★★ads disrupt the experience
Wrong information and too many ads. The app provides the wrong information for BM I. For example it says that someone with a BMI of 24 is overweight. The cut off is 25.
- ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions
Decent app, annoying ads. BMI is not difficult to calculate, and this app works okay for that purpose. I hate the intrusive advertising, and regret that there is no way to turn them off with an in-app purchase.
- ★★★★★inaccurate results and incorrect data
Totally Inaccurate. This app uses an incorrect BMI range. The correct range is 18.5 to 24. This app uses a low point of 20. It makes overweight appear within normal range.
- ★★★★★inaccurate results and incorrect data
Inaccurate and Incorrect!. The actual BMI figures it gives are correct, however the classifications and ideal body weight ranges are incorrect. I put in wife's height and weight (140/5'3") and it gave correct BMI of 24.8. However, it classified that as "overweight." NIH's (official government department) calculator says anything up to 25.0 is "normal." Sadly, when I switched the gender selector from F to M, it said it was "normal." BMI is the same for women and men!
- ★★★★★графики и диапазон истории
Standards are wrong. True BMI standards say that anything under 25 is healthy weight, this app tells you anything over 23 is overweight. Seriously??? At 152 pounds and 5'7, I wear a size 6-8 Jean and size Small top. Pretty sure I'm not overweight and it's very dangerous and promotes unhealthy weight loss habits to tell people otherwise.

Wrong. A female 5'6" who weighs 149 pounds does not classify as overweight based on BMI as a matter of fact she would classify in the normal range up to 154.
- ★★★★★inaccurate results and incorrect data
Poor app. The results provided by this app are incorrect and do not follow standards. 24BMI is not considered overweight nor is 28 considered obese.
- ★★★★★inaccurate results and incorrect data
The Standards Are Off. This app gives the wrong information. The levels of underweight, healthy weight, and overweight are standardized, and this app doesn't follow those standards. It is irresponsible and dangerous to give out incorrect information in an a health app.
- ★★★★★a needed feature is missing
Adware. Deleted. Should have shown true screen shot.

Rubbish App for iPad. No landscape display - only portrait!
- ★★★★★inaccurate results and incorrect data
Incorrect.. Completely.. Thought I would try this, it said I am underweight. I'm 6'6" tall and weigh over 19 stone (over 266 pounds). Really!? Anyone and everyone knows that I'm classed as obese! Rubbish app!!
- ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific
Get your stuff right. So off for the weight like just for a example 4.10 for height and 90 pounds is apparently under weight!! LIKE WHAT??!!! Also female.

I’m sorry but this app isn’t it.. This app is completely false and doesn’t give the right information. It can lead to eating disorders and should get its information straight.
- ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific
Metric Only. Seriously this app won’t toggle between Metric and Imperial? Go back to the drawing board.
- ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific
Don't waste your time!. This app is a scam and does not work. It does not take under consideration your age, your body structure or even your physical capacity.
- ★★★★★inaccurate results and incorrect data
Gives inaccurate data!. My bmi came out at 24.4 and it tells me this is in the overweight range but then the app links to a Wikipedia chart that clearly shows a bmi up to 25 is 'normal'! I think this is a ploy to get you to download some of their other fitness apps! Am deleting this app! A google search is more accurate.
- ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific
Poor design. The app is easy to use as the calculation is very simple. It allows you to the user to switch the measure of unit, but when swiping to the ideal weight page, it only shows the metric weight, i.e. by kg.
- ★★★★★a needed feature is missing
Does not show correct category. There are correctly calculated BMI values in the normal range that show up as overweight. I like the simplicity of this, but I wish it was correct.
- ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific
The ads kill me!. Would use this app way more if I had an option to purchase an ad free one. PLEASE RELEASE AS FREE VERSION!
- ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions
Most accurate app. Too many ads. The app is the most accurate calculator and characterization of BMI. Has additional information including ideal weight range based on height. This would be my favorite BMI app but the advertisements are too many and too aggressive. Way too many ads. Ads too AGGRESSIVE ! Ad looks up the app with a countdown timer. Way too aggressive. No option to pay for ad free. Even if I just use another app for 2 seconds have to watch another locked countdown ad to use the app! Ridiculous. Deleting.

Would be okay if.... There is no specification for age. Also, standards for weight categories do not match ones found in other sources.

BMI app. It's a fair app to use it just needs something more
- ★★★★★mixed experience without a specific reason· unspecific
It’s okay. It’s good but it’s doesn’t ask your age so it thinks you underweight or overweight but all good 👍
