★★★★★
This app is great, it's simple and easy to use. The only drawback is that you can't use a decimal point for weight measurements.
★★★★★
Calculates close to what the website had, but you can't include decimals in pounds. I'll stick to using the website.
★★★★★
The website shows a different bmi calculation than the app, and it also lets you use decimals. Other than that it's a simple app, but I prefer to use the website.
★★★★★
It does exactly what it says it does, with no extra fluff. I would like to be able to enter "lbs" with one decimal. My digital scale measures wieght in "kg" and can display in "kg" or "lb" with the latter to one decimal place.
★★☆☆☆
Simple to use, but not allowing a decimal place for weight in kg is not good enough.
★★☆☆☆
Good app in theory, but as many other users have stated the inability to use decimals makes it inaccurate and thus, useless. It cannot do its one job because of this mass oversight. How can you not allow decimal points???
★★☆☆☆
It does NOT allow fractions between whole numbers! 142.2 pounds us an example! Electronic weighing scales give fractions! Update your software!
★★☆☆☆
Can't use it, doesn't support metric properly. Unlike the imperial system metric uses decimals...
