iHealth HS4 Lite Wireless Scale for Apple and Android

This works great, it connects instantly and automatically, and the scale is the kind that you just step on and it works. I hate those scales that you have to touch to turn on, what a moment, then step on to get weighted. Plus it has a large surface area, I have extra wide 13's and have a problem fitting on regular sized scales.

I am very happy with the iHealth Lite scale. The user guide is easy to understand and it comes with the required batteries. The scale is fairly heavy and stays in place with no problem. The display is brightly lit and is easy to read either in the dark or with the lights on. I initially tried using the iHealth My Vitals app which I liked because it synced right away, but I could not get the scale to read in pounds. I tried using the set button as the user guide advised, but no matter how many times or how long I pressed the button it would not change from kg to pounds. I uninstalled the first app and switched to the iHealth My Vitals 2.0 app instead. This app immediately switched the scale to pounds. The app requires 43.3 mb of space, and both apps connected easily to my Galaxy S5 via Bluetooth. The scale must be on a flat surface to read properly. I tried it on the carpet just to see what would happen and it only registers at about 30% of your actual weight. It was quick and easy to set up an account, and you can view your weight on the website either in a line graph or as a list. It will store up to 200 recordings and gives you the option to make notes. The scale is pretty expensive, but it seems well made and should last a long time. I would definitely recommend this scale.

I really like these scales, it took me a bit to get used to them. I am not accustomed to having to download anything from a phone to get the scales to work. And I must say, it frustrated the heck out of me at first, wondering what I had gotten myself into. But once I downloaded the app, and it started working, I was amazed at what has been computer regenerated to make things so much more easier. These scales keep so much information on them, it is totally unreal. The scales are really big and a bit heavier that your normal scales, but they are nice and thin. They come in white, and white goes with anything. I would highly recommend these to someone, esp. if you are smartphone savvy, but for those that don't use smartphones, they might not like these as well.

When I first received this scale I did not know you had to program it through my Android phone. You have to go to setting on your phone and turn on your Bluetooth. I pressed search to find the scale and once you find the scale name you need to pair it in order to connect. You will see IHealth HS4Sxxxx and not paired. Once you paired it you will see connected and the scale is ready for use. This scale is very accurate. It read in Kilogram and LB. I used the kg and converted it into pounds. You multiply it by 2.2. You can do it in LBS but after changing over to pounds I did not get an accurate reading. I loved the large reading on the scales,. The reading was accurate .

The iHealth Wireless Scale Lite is a very attractive scale and seems very sturdy as well. I like the way that your weight shows on the display integrated into the white glass top so you only see a numeric display when you're on the scale. It measures to the tenth of a unit which can be either pounds or kilograms. I wanted the scale as it also measure BMI and tracks both weight and BMI in the data saved in the Cloud. But it also saves some data in the scale itself so if you happen to not be connected it can still store your weight and BMI until the next time your app is connected. It seems like a great product but I am a little disappointed as I thought the information I saw before getting it indicated that you could track your data either with an IOS app or an Android app. I'm able to download the app, but it doesn't connect to the scale via Bluetooth. It gives an error saying "The scale has reached its max accounts of 10". But I just got the scale so unless it is a used product, there is some sort of software error. The iHealth Help Desk sent a link to something to IN THEORY delete the 10 accounts so I can register it on my phone app, but the iHealth Edge Tracker (see my review of that product) is a separate product that uses the same “My Vitals 2.0” Android app and it has the app locked and unusable so I can't even try to move forward on the scale. Dealing with these 2 iHealth products has been a nightmare that has used way too much of my time trying to get these things to work when each of them SHOULD HAVE BEEN able to be up and working within a few minutes of being removed from the packaging. I am a very disappointed and frustrated customer and can't recommend this scale. It does weigh now, but the weight by default is in kilograms and I can't change that to pounds apparently without having the scale connected to the Android app. ¬¬
