BMI Calculator – Weight Loss

Dear Sirs, I just upgraded my BMI Calculator to 1.8.3. I started getting ads which didn’t make me happy. So I purchased this app for 99 cents and yes the ads were removed. I then upgraded my phone app the adds were still their and I had to purchase a second license. I was very pleased with the developers response. He fixed the problem in under a day and added a restore purchase button to the app that allowed me to register the same app on multiple devises and it now works flawlessly now.

I am a ten year old girl. I have a ten year old 5’1 best friend that weighs maybe 125 pounds. The poor girl was curious and downloaded this app because she felt the slightest bit of overweight. She wanted to download this to see if she needs to loose a few pounds. She put in her height and age and gender, excited but nervous. We were on the phone while she put in the info as I looked at my screen to see my best friend on the verge of tears. I asked her what was wrong and she showed me the app while it was almost at the end of the overweight scale. I tried to help her to understand that her home scale is probably false but she didn’t understand. I looked at the reviews and apparently it is false and people are gaining EATING DISORDERS. I read out these reviews to try and explain the the app is only false but it didn’t help. All she was looking for was to see if she needed to loose some weight as she was feeling a little insecure..a ten year old should not have to feel like this after she has been bullied so much. She is not overweight nor obese..I don’t know why she would use this app but all it did was make her feel insecure and sensitive. Please fix this problem before it continues to hurt other kids perspective of themselves. Please and thank you.

i'm a 16 year old girl who's struggled with bullying my entire life, usually about weight. this app has been telling me im obese for months, which has been a direct cause for my ED. there are obviously other factors that contributed to my ed, but this app was the biggest. i'm not huge, but im 4'11 so weight is gonna look different on me than it would others. i'm 120lbs and 4'11, this app tells me im obese, while multiple other university-made websites say that my weight is normal. i've lost 30lbs this year. im not upset at the developers, nor is it the developers fault. being wrong is human, and nowadays everyone says something different so its hard to get accurate information. please look into fixing the data so this doesn't continue to happen. As well as possibly a reminder in-app about staying healthy and eating HEALTHY 🫶🏻

me and my little sister decided to download this app because we both were feeling like we should’ve started losing a little bit of weight. My sister at the age of 20 weighs about 185 pounds and she is 5’9. The app told her that she was overweight and also called her obese. I really think this was hard for her mental state and started really hurt my sister‘s mental health. She’s a very strong girl, but see that an app can call her obese really wasn’t the best thing for her, she started to lose weight and then she got into underweight. this really hurt her mental health to hear an app call her obese and hearing from multiple people of friends, boyfriends and other people calling her fat and then the app calling her beast really did not help. I don’t think this is a very good app for people who are insecure about their bodies which I do not think anybody should be.

It gives you your bmi. I see all the reviews about it telling you your overweight or obese. The app gives you your bmi and if you not happy with it do something. Its not the app cause the app is doing exactly what it saids. I don’t know what people expect. And in reviews I see people just include there age and weight. Its mainly about your height not just always about your age.

I’m a around 5’6 12 year old male and I weigh at a hefty 145 lbs and I have looked at various Body mass Index charts and they say I’m at least healthy, while this app is telling me I am overweight. I’m involved in a very active sport and I don’t eat that much😒. And sometimes I throw up my food after eating because I feel fat. So basically this wretched app put my fears set in stone just to tell me. “Hey kiddo your a big back”. One of my biggest goals is to not ever gain a eating disorder but this app isn’t helping. Thank you, for making an app that just tells people they’re fat.🤭 and also I did some messing around and turns out I would have to lose about 10 pounds just to be in the tiniest sliver of the healthy section. ❤️much love

This app might be good for just an average but it cannot account for muscle, bone density, and other things. If your play sports or build muscle this app is definitely not for u to see if ur average or not. Muscle weighs much more and means ur fit NOT fat or overweight, same goes for bone density some people’s bones are simply heavier then others no matter how silly that sounds. This app might be nice in very few circumstances but not to tell u accurately if ur underweight overweight or average. If you really want to know go to a professional for this type of stuff . NEVER MIND how the weight scale for this is pretty much the same for boys and girls even though our bodies are completely diffrent

I don’t think this is valid and here’s why. I am a 13 year old girl that is 5’5 I am healthy and I take care of myself. I would also like to mention that I exercise daily because I play basketball. The last time I went to the doctor they said that I weighed the perfect amount due to my age and my height. I then went home and downloaded the BMI calculator and put my age, my height along with how much I weigh. It said I was Obese, not overweight but Obese. I am not obese and I am not anywhere near obese, anyone that knows me can tell you the same. I do not recommend this app and I think it is very false.

I have had this app for years. It has always told me that I am overweight. Let me tell you.. I went to the hospital and they told me I am extremely underweight. Now that I’m trying to work on it. I am having an extremely horrible time mentally and physically. This app is what I was using to get to my ideal weight and now I have to spend near thousands of dollars in medical bills to make sure I DON’T DIE. This app is a fake and dangerous to everyone. I do not recommend downloading this, especially if you are already self conscious. Please be careful and know that you are not defined by your weight.

So i tried this on myself a while ago, about 2 months ago. When the results showed, I was absolutely surprised. It said I was "obese". I started eating less for this reason. I weighed 127 pounds at the time, which I don't think that is what you can call obese. When I looked at other people trying this, I came across a video that said this app is completely false. I also read these reviews, and most of them also said that this app is inaccurate. Fix this app before making other people feel more insecure than they might be already of their weight.

I’ve been working on weight loss so it’s nice to see my progress as I go down weight categories. I started in class 3 obese so this app really makes me feel proud of myself when I see my BMI be lower and makes see I need to get back on track when my BMI gets higher. It’s free, easy to use and an important tool in my weight loss journey

Hi, I’m devin and I’m 4 foot 8, 11 years old and only barely 131 pounds. My doctor says devin is normal average weight and very healthy, although, this easily is fake. Tell me again I’m fat app! Because I won’t believe ya! I know that the calculations are wrong because I know I’m basically normal height . Also, who ever made this app is promoting baking cookies with vegetables in them because you wouldn’t normal eat that unless you were obese . Class 1. Which I am not lol. I will delete this app because I heard that it’s false and messed up. Also I got very very sad. I still will eat . You won’t fool me 😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜

If all you are looking for is a BMI calculator, this is a great app! Simple, easy to use & no ads. Love the graphics showing where my weight falls within the ranges. Yes, BMI is not perfect for everyone, but for many of us it is a good indicator of where we need to be for a healthy weight and I like the added visual incentive.

This app is seriously harsh. I am 14, I weigh roughly 130 pounds from when I’ve last checked. If I’m even a pound over, I’m classified as overweight or obese. I got this app just to check it out, but it’s really making other users see themselves as ugly and try to use it for an excuse to classify themselves as obese when they are perfectly skinny and a normal weight. I am a swimmer and diver so I put in a lot of muscle, and I know I’m not 100% skinny I am NOT even near overweight. This app is jsut to make people feel bad, do not download.

I use this app for my job. Noticed that changing the gender doesn’t change anything about the bmi. Am I missing something? I know for a fact weight range for bmi class should vary based on BOTH age and sex. Let me know if I’m doing something wrong, maybe change gender first? Not sure and feedback would be appreciated. Generally accurate though I believe, just confused about the weight range.

For me, my results are exactly normal. The app tells u your bmi and it is accurate. All these reviews are like 5th graders that are 4’9 and weigh 140 pounds and them getting mad that the bmi says overweight. No crap you are. I’d recommend downloading it, in my experience it was accurate and a well app to use.

It does exactly what it says. It gives you a full review on everything and think it’s an amazing resource, but the only thing I don’t like is if you are a bit overweight or underweight it can make you feel a little insecure, but you download the app for a reason so I would recommend getting it.

This is a great app and is very well programmed. <3 Just wanted to say though, if you are using this insecure about your weight. Just remember you aren't alone and it's always ok to ask for help if you are overeating or under eating (ED / eating disorder) <33 You are beautiful love, mwah 💋 (no hate to any creators of this app)

i dont wanna say my age and like that type of stuff this isn’t a looong story but this made me really insecure about my weight as a person with emetophobia i dont really eat that much because of my phobia and once in second grade this girl was sick and she puked next to me and i didnt eat for weeks like ACTUAL WEEKS i lost 6 pounds and this was really scary for me. after a long ago (not that much) i started eating and i started gaining a little bit more and yeah. this made me really insecure as an 40 kg person

I loved this app. I used it every day in my job as a Bariatric Coordintor. Then the formatting changed and it no longer shows the info in a usable way. At least not for Apple iPhone 12. Bummer cuz it was the Best of all the BMI apps out there.

I’m a 10yr old girl who has been bullied pretty much my entire life about my weight and looks and recently I have not been wanting to eat and my best friend has been encouraging me to eat so I have.I downloaded this app hoping that it would be kind of bad but not too bad I put my age, height and weight and it says I’m overweight, not only did I want to cry but I also haven’t ate in two days because of this app it has made me more insecure than I was before.

This app is NOT accurate it can NOT detect muscle or bone mass so there for it will never be accurate. If this app ever made you insecure like it made me DONT EVER look at this app again. VERY inaccurate. Do better. Keep your self healthy. I’m 100 pounds and 4’9 it told me I was overweight. When doing a real bmi test connected to a scale and an app it sends vibrations through your body’s detecting your bone mass and other things like water weight to tell you accurately what you bmi is. Please don’t use this app.

As a 12 year old girl that is 5'5" I am underweight and on the BMI i am on the "normal (🙄)" scale but it is still very close to obese. I checked and the weight that would be considered completely normal for my weight was 104 lbs! That is completely unrealistic and only realistic for a 10 year old. It's honestly concerning because it's unrealistic body expectations like this that promote eating disorders in young girls because they think they are overweight. Please fix it to be realistic this app is bothersome...

This app is very helpful when it comes to watching your weight, it really helps you track progress, and see what habits work, and what don’t. 10/10 would recommend.

Hey, so I’m really insecure about my weight. I downloaded for the fun of it but then I realized it’s terribly bad. If your 130 at 12 or 150 at 21 you aren’t obese, those are actually pretty okay. It doesn’t matter how big that number gets on the weight just as long as your healthy, and I think a lot of people forget that. Not everyone is gonna be 90 lbs so you don’t have to worry. I’m proud of you.

I get incredibly insecure about my weight while using this app but, it also helps me realize that i could be doing more to get my weight up and instead of going through the embarrassment of going on the scale i can do it in private on this app.

helps me understand where i’m and helps me work on what i need to. This app may be stressful for some people but i think if you put in the work you too can be “normal”

Im 12 years old and almost 13 i have an eating disorder and i weigh 120 im 5’3 and i looked at my bmi and it said i was overweight i cried don’t download this app cause now every time i eat i feel guilty and stop eating and my moms worried and my friends are worried whoever created this app wasnt in their right minds this app is just to make teenage girls feel guilty and sad and developers dont even try to defend yourselves what you do is horrible

Telling 12 year olds that they’re obese at 100 pounds is not encouraging anything healthy or positive you have already or are gonna start an eating disorder for someone. The average 12 year old is 100 pounds or above. With all respect to her the one 12 year old I do know thats listed as your idea of normal weight is malnourished and skeletal and thats even listed on the end of normal so???

Please do not listen to this app or let this define you it’s very unrealistic and just dumb stay healthy and eat take care of yourself and never let an app have an impact on you there’s no such thing as a “normal” weight ur all perfect this app is extremely unhealthy and it can cause eds on even young kids this is not right at all love yourselves for who u are and don’t let these silly numbers define you being healthy🫶🏽

This app is wonderful and I think it tells you straight up that you’re either obese or perfectly fine. I love the way ALL ages are able to see their BMI and work on their health. Great app!

this app made me so insecure, I was always insecure about my body. But this just hurt, knowing that I need to lose weight and I’ll never be happy with my body,

Okay so I see this on TikTok and I want to download it because I know if I comment on it then they’re not gonna ever make a video about me so I download it and I put all my information in and it said that obese when I’m actually really skinny I think this app is busted or something because when I put in another fake information is said the same thing and it’s just not right…

This app is literally the reason I have a ED it’s very easy to get obsessed and the weight isn’t exactly accurate and it is very stereotyped. I really hope you don’t get caught up with your weight with this app. Yes it does the basic calculations but muscle weighs the same as fat but looks so different. If you are worried about your weight please remember to talk to someone experienced or a medical professional.

Honestly its a great app but i wish there was more features for example tasks for our breathing running tasks etc…But overall its a perfect app

This app told me I’m overweight when my stomach is completely flat, it didn’t ask about muscle, breasts or anything like that. I work out 5 days out of the week so I have a lot of muscle, I was just curious about this app… this could very easily cause eating disorders and make people very uncomfortable. There needs to be more context especially with woman because of breasts.

I live this app because it’s VERY Realistic, it tells you the truth and I actual enjoy seeing the truth instead of just seeing something that’s lying

this app made my 13 year old daughter cry for over a week straight this app is disgusting for not realizing the damage it is doing to young children who already deal with enough emotional stress as is but to put this image in there head that they have to be perfect is just affecting there mental heath even more the fact that this app has a “normal” weight limit is just ridiculous and vulgar to make it seem like if u are not normal than u are fat or underweight it puts this image in young people’s minds to think that if they aren’t that then they aren’t normal there for i hate this app and would like it to be shut down for good

Hi, I’m Angie! I’m not hating or anything to the app. I’m simply saying it will hurt your feelings. Also I’m not completely sure it’s true. My doctor said I’m normal weight and he’s impressed with it. And the app said I’m overweight… I don’t understand but whatever. I’m just saying! Not hating.

First off, with the minimum normal BMI on this app supposedly being 17.7 they are practically promoting people to become underweight. A bmi of 18.5 and below is underweight. Normal weight would be from 18.5 to 24.9 bmi. A bmi of 25 and up is overweight and over 30 is obese. Do not use this app if you want accuracy. I recommend MyBMICalculator for an accurate calculation.

Nothing more to say, does what you would expect, no bad things to say

I typed in my current weight, I’m an average sized woman. App told me I was obese 1. I typed in the weight I was 10 years ago (when I was a size small), still overweight. This doesn’t take into account your muscle mass. I’m a runner and obese? A number on a scale has nothing to do with how great you are! Please remember that!

This app is HORRIBLE if you want to know what weight class you fit into. The bmi calculator has reasonable weights for a human body with no muscle mass. ⚠️‼️IT DOES NOT COUNT MUSCLE MASS FROM YOUR WEIGHT‼️⚠️ It causes many young people to be insecure of their perfectly normal weight. DONT download apps like this and just love yourself for who you are. You are loved more than you know.

So I download this calculator to see my weight and to my results of me getting this I was thinking it would be a great idea so I could easily track my weight loss, but instead I was met with grief I feel like I am an average size girl for my age and height and this made me break its scale like I was Madea or Caso I cried and it’s very disrespectful.

Does what I need it to do. Provides BMI and classification per WHO or DGE classifications. Doesn’t ask for unnecessary personal information.

This app doesn’t take into account your muscles mass or anything like that, I work out everyday and don’t have fat just muscle and it’s obvious if u see me, but the app says i’m overweight. If u really want to know ur bmi and muscle mass go to the dr cause this isn’t it

I don’t think this app is real. What I mean by that is I don’t think this app is accurate. I was putting in random ages and random weights. I put in 11 year year-old girl 108 pounds. and it said it was the obese level. I just don’t think that’s accurate. don’t get it if you want accurate stuff.

only use it for the truth so you can see what you to do

People that are trying hard to lose weight but some people I mean a lot of people download this app and certainly want to hurt themselves because they’re overweight so please if you’re trying to hurt yourself by just looking at yourself in the mirror don’t

This app is horrible it says you’re a beast when you’re perfectly healthy makes people self-conscious of their body weight even if they’re healthy this app should be taken off of the App Store it is rude and not healthy for people to think they’re obese when they’re not
