This is horrible and really unacurate as it says im overweight even though im a healthy weight for my age and it is saying the lowest in the healthy section would be 34kg which on me would be cast as an anorexic body weight and i would be severely underweight where bones would show. It will not be recommended if u sre already struggling with a low self esttem or a undiagnosed ed.

I have give 5 stars because the year by year we can check the age and the weight is correct or not. The only thing we gave to do is ( we have to take geight by measuring cm and weight by using weight machine ) this two things enough to know how our weight is going on..

The app works well. It can even calculate youth BMI information for those age 7 and up. However, it has ads. It also bothers users occasionally to give it a review.

I found this app very simple and accurate. It agrees completely with what I have been told by profrofessionals. I am going to keep it because I have friends that say they don't know what they should weigh. Thank You

Stupid app. A BMI calculator like this cannot tell the difference between muscle and fat. You can be 95 kilos,6 foot, and an active person that goes to the gym and itl call you overweight while you still have visable abs🤣
