According to our personal scale expert
With the Medisana BS 436 Connect personal scale, you can measure your weight, body fat percentage, body water percentage, and muscle and bone mass. In addition, the device also calculates your BMI and analyses your calorie requirement. You can easily connect the scale to your smartphone, where you can check all your measured data in the accompanying app. Here, you can also find the data of your body analysis or see if there's a shift in your weight or muscle mass at the glance of an eye. This is convenient if you're working towards a personal fitness goal. Working towards a goal with several family members? You can all use this scale. The BS 436 Connect has space for 8 users and recognizes you as soon as you get on it.
Note: using a scale with body analysis may lead to health risks for pregnant women, children, or people that use medical electronic devices. Check the manual before use.Body analysis | ||

The scale is easy to use and easy to set up with the manual. The screen shows clear data and the app was also linked in this way.
I was wondering if the companion app could also work offline. To test this I put the phone (iPhone) in airplane mode (with bluetooth turned on) and took a measurement. Without an internet connection, the measurement was still synced to my phone, so I conclude that the app continues to work, even if eg the server of Medisana would go offline.
There is one major drawback of the app. When installing, you are required to create an account with the manufacturer. You must give Medisana permission to share all your personal and vital data with third parties. You cannot create an account without this permission. So that's very unfortunate. Without an app, it seems impossible to sync the data with the phone.

So many different values within a few minutes does not give the feeling of reliability.

Great product. Looks nice too. Fat measurement is not displayed correctly. This is because fat measurement requires a strong impulse to measure the entire body. Now only legs. However, this is the case with all fat measuring scales. Despite this, I strongly recommend this product.
