About this app

With this BMI Calculator you can calculate and evaluate your Body Mass Index (BMI) based on the relevant information on body weight, height, age and sex. Check your body stats to find your ideal weight, because overweight and obesity are risk factors for diseases such as hypertension, heart disease and diabetes. It can also be used to find your healthy weight if you want to lose weight or are on diet.

Ratings and reviews

This app does exactly what it suppose to do. Giving you the BMI without manually having to do a complicated spreadsheet for the 2 ways of calculating it. It will not tell you anything else about you. You can still have fat belly and be normal weight. BMI will not tell you anything about your eating habit. BMI has nothing to do with calories. No ads, so 5 stars.

The BMI scale for underweight/overweight is very innacurate, it also calculates BMI horribly wrong. When I select the age of 9 my BMI is almost in the overweight section when it's labled 19-21 and it should logically put the arrow into the underweight section for me. Older ages are slightly more accurate but still wrong. The BMI doesn't change between male and female either. The interface is nice and clean I suppose and there's no intrusive ads, that's about the only good thing about it :/

The app does what it is supposed to do, moreover without ads and trying to induce to in-app purchases, contrary to other similar apps with, surprisingly, higher rating. Reading the reviews one learns an interesting fact: how willingly people show their ignorance by blaming the app when their BMI is not within the green area, i.e. the one considered 'normal' for a majority of people. Some of the reviews show they come from very young users, their ignorance maybe forgiven. Other seem from adults that should know better, but obviously don't. A possible recommendation to the developer: to add a text visible in the open app recommending to consult with one's doctor in case the calculated value is outside the expected norm.
