My Weight Tracker Pro is a free iPhone app by iAppNdroid Inc. that lets users track their weight quickly and easily. There are plenty of fitness apps on the App Store that feature weight tracking functionality, but what if you just want a simple way to log weight day to day?
The primary goal of My Weight Tracker Pro is to provide users with a quick and simple way to log their weight daily without having to jump through hoops in order to do so. When you first download the app you’ll have to adjust regional settings such as units of measurement.
My Weight Tracker Pro also lets you set up a personal profile that includes your current weight, height, desired weight, and target goal date. This information is used to help you stay focused on your weight goal while using the app.
One of the things that impressed me the most is the comprehensive dashboard that shows everything you need to know right on the main screen of My Weight Tracker Pro. It’s easy to see your weight goals, information such as BMI, and access the log function.
To log your weight for the day, simply tap on the “Enter New Weight” button. Next, slide the scale value left or right to match your current weight. You can optionally add a note to your log, which is great for mentioning important things like recently eating a meal.
My Weight Tracker Pro features more than an info-packed dashboard. There’s a handy screen that shows you all of your logs, and this is where you can tap each entry to read your note. You can also check out the progress screen, which is where you can see graphs of your weight for a great visual representation of your progress. You can also backup your app data via iCloud and access it on other devices.
In terms of usability, My Weight Tracker Pro definitely accomplishes what it has set out to do, which is to provide users with a handy way to keep track of their current weight. The app isn’t nearly as complex as a full-fledged fitness app, but that’s perfect for users who don’t want an app that does everything.
One suggestion I have is to add a profile feature so multiple users can take advantage of the app. For example, this feature would be perfect for parents who not only want to keep track of their own weight, but also their child’s weight. Perhaps you have a pet and would like to track their weight, as well.
Overall, My Weight Tracker Pro is a fantastic weight tracking app for iPhone that’s functional, useful, and very simple to use. The app is supported by ads, but they’re not annoying. You can optionally disable ads for $1.99 via the app’s settings menu.
My Weight Tracker Pro requires iOS 6.0 or later and is compatible with iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch. This app is optimized for iPhone 5.
