Consistent, easy to use scale & app
By Save a Life - Adopt A Pet on Reviewed in the United States on August 14, 2023
Received for Xmas gift, have used daily since, for 8 months. Not a single issue with the scale or app. While Eufy's app doesn't share data with the Samsung Health app or Noom weight/diet app, it does share with Google Fit, and, by downloading an sweet little app called Health Synch from the Google Play store, I was able to synch & share data between Eufy - Google Fit - Samsung Health - Omron Connect (Blood Pressure) - Contour (Glucose) - Kardia (cardiac EKG) devices & apps installed on my Samsung phone. Sweet! Now I can pull up my data from all these apps/devices in Samsung Health or Google Fit to analyze & compare results over time or after, say exercise, meals or fasting, and have it all in one place to show my medical care team as well.The Eufy P1 worked immediately, right out of the box after installing batteries (Duracell brand) , which are still going strong after 8 months of daily use. My routine is to wake up at roughly the same time each morning, and weigh myself, unclothed, after using the toilet, and before showering, eating or drinking. This creates consistency in weight & body composition tracking, so that changes will be the most accurate, and unaffected by clothing/jewelery/food & water intake/sweating or wet hair & skin, etc. BIA (body impedance analysis) accuracy isn't reliable for specific, concrete numbers about body composition, but it is a fairly reliable tool for tracking *changes* in body composition. The Eufy P1 has shown data for me that corresponds to what I feel & see in the mirror - and what my medical team & tests have found, since starting a program of exercise, diet & lifestyle changes last year: increases in muscle & bone density, decreases in visceral fat, overall body fat & weight, etc.I've had no issues getting the scale to turn on or connect to my phone & the Eufy app, and always use it on a level vinyl floor. I typically wake up my phone, open the Eufy app, set the phone on a shelf and step on. The app instantly connects and registers my weight, and then takes 1-3 seconds to complete the other measurements, displaying progress with a circular graph while I stand still. When complete, the home screen displays all measurements taken, and it's easy to toggle to the history screen, where I can scroll thru past entries by day, week or month, download data to print or send in an email to my doctor, or import into a spreadsheet. This screen also shows a comparison sketch of your current body shape/size vs your goal, if you've set up a goal of being a specific weight by a specific date. I have also compared my clothed weight at home on this scale to my weight just 20 minutes later on digital scales at my various doctor's offices, and there's never been been more than .2lbs variance, so I feel the weight on the P1 is very accurate. I'd love to see Eufy make a few tweaks to the app, such as expanding the devices & apps it can share data with easily (like Samsung apps & devices), so that a 3rd party app isn't needed, and making it possible to see history by item, such as only body fat data vs all data. It would also be nice to be able to view the body image comparison by date. Being able to view the image from, say 6 months ago vs today, and then 6 months ago vs goal, instead of only today vs goal, would be a great motivational tool, esp if your data from the dates you select were displayed at the same time. Being able to save & print that would be really helpful, too.

Eufy scale does not connect directly to Google Fit
By MusicEarthLove on Reviewed in the United States on May 4, 2021
This is my first time purchasing a smart scale.My reason for purchasing the Eufy smart scale was to connect it to the Google Fit app. It states in the description that it connects to the Google Fit app. Unfortunately, I had to download the EufyLife app first, then I could connect the EufyLife app to my Google App. Maybe it sounds crazy to you like it did for me. I didn't want to download an app to connect to my Google Fit app which has already been tracking my health and progress. Also, the EufyLife app only has 100k downloads and therefore is really sketchy to me. Not pleased with the lack of direct connection.The product itself has a sleek and modern look. It is a beautiful scale. The tempered glass top is easy to clean. Unfortunately, the scale has to be connected to the app to work (if you don't download the app, the scale won't work). We inserted the batteries, per directions and it didn't start right away. The scale didn't come on until we connected the app via Bluetooth to the scale. ***Here's a plus, the scale will still work to check weight only without logging back into the app. I was concerned that I would have to log in to the app every time I wanted to check my weight but no. Once the app has initially been connected the scale will still work for the basic weight function without reconnecting Bluetooth or turning on the app.***Unfortunately, I found the scale was not very accurate. When I first got the scale I took my weight three different times during the day and each time the weight had a different reading. Took my weight again a couple of days later and again today (each time a different weight). While I would love to believe that I've lost three to five pounds in a few days, I probably didn't. It could be water weight but again, I'm not sure. The lack of accuracy (this yo-yo effect) has led to a distrust of the scale. I'm looking at it now as an estimate of my weight instead of an accurate number. So sad.Likes:App allows multiple usersShows BMIAllows you to set a goal weightShows your history and trendsAllows you to change unit of weight (kg, lbs)Available in different languagesShows body fat %Shows water %Shows muscle mass %Shows bone mass %Shows BMRShows visceral fatShows lean body mass (lbs)Shows body fat mass (lbs)Show bone mass (lbs)Shows muscle mass (lbs)Shows body ageShows protein %I really like the detailed report and how deep it goes.Dislikes:Must download EufyLife appWeight is not accurateSmart scale does not connect directly to Google Fit (but does via EufyLife app)Overall, I'm not sure this scale is for me. The price wasn't horrible compared to other smart scales on the market. It just doesn't function as I wanted it to or meet my expectations and for that reason I didn't give it five stars. It might be a better fit for you if you don't mind connecting your existing data to the app or if you're starting completely fresh.
