Shapa

Small steps towards a healthier lifestyle

Features & Capabilities

Shapa revolutionizes weight management by pairing a sleek, numberless scale with a personalized app designed to encourage healthier lifestyle changes. Unlike traditional diet and exercise programs, Shapa uses smart algorithms to replace fluctuating weight readings with more meaningful metrics like Shapa Color and Shapa Age, offering a truer picture of your health.

Tailored to your personality, habits, and environment, Shapa delivers personalized missions—small, achievable actions—to keep you motivated on your journey. Features such as Vacation Mode, Start Over, Streak tracking, and community sharing enhance your experience, while integration with Amazon Alexa adds further convenience. Developed by social scientist Dan Ariely, Shapa embraces behavioral science to support sustainable weight management and long-term health improvements.

User Reviews

Users appreciate Shapa's innovative color-based approach to weight tracking which reduces stress and promotes accountability. However, many struggle with persistent app and scale connectivity issues, unstable app performance, and poor customer support. The subscription cost is viewed as high, especially since canceling often results in loss of data access. While integration with Google Fit helps, users desire more detailed tracking and historical data. Overall, the app's unique concept appeals to some, but technical flaws and service problems limit its effectiveness.
Pros
  • Provides a less stressful, non-obsessive way to track weight changes without seeing exact numbers.
  • Helps with motivation and accountability for weight management goals.
  • Integrates with Google Fit for viewing detailed weight data and historical information.
  • Offers a unique color-based system to indicate weight status instead of numbers.
  • Missions and nudges help encourage healthy behaviors.
Cons
  • Frequent syncing issues between the app and scale, often requiring phone reboots or force closing the app.
  • Poor customer service with delayed or unfulfilled responses and scale replacements.
  • Subscription model is expensive and restrictive; users report losing access to weight data after cancellation despite claims otherwise.
  • App is buggy and unstable with problems like getting stuck on splash screens and running continuously in background.
  • Lack of detailed historical data and insufficient meaningful feedback to justify the price.

This app, on Android, is a total piece of trash. It only properly syncs once out of every 5 times. I have to reboot my phone to make it work. Turning off/on Bluetooth does not fix it neither does ending the app. The app produces messages with a place to tap to acknowledge but they never work and you have to end the app. I'd take my money back but bought this on a leap of faith with a No Returns policy on the scale. Maybe spend more time on usability and less time on badges.

I loved it for the 8 months it worked. It provided me the motivation to get within 10 pounds of my goal. However, the scale stopped syncing with tha app. Customer service has told me that they were sending a new scale. After a month of back and forth, none of the things they have told me have actually occurred. One lie after another. I am highly disappointed.
