Under control

Hi, I’m using this tool since 2012. It is stable and fulfills completely my demands. And the graph shows exactly what I want to see.

Heli-Walter v1.8.2 · 11 years ago

Simple to use weight control program. The rolling average makes it easy to get positive feedback for continued weight loss. Self-motivation is needed to loose weight; but positive feedback every day is encouraging. I have to get the green average line below my blue target line. Target is 75 pounds weight reduction in 6 months. This little APP will certainly help.

Not working

Worked good for a while. Now the graph and input page is empty no matter what I do,

Srbromby v1.8.2 · 10 years ago

Pretty much just junk, a waste of a couple of bucks. Needs to be taken off the App Store and dumped. Wont change to Pounds, won’t keep height, wants to start in 1982…. Like others, piece of junk.

Ive been using the weight monitor App for a little over a week now and find it excellant. It does everything I was trying to get a spreadsheet to do but couldnt. The runnning 10-day average weight line on the graph really gives a good idea as to how youre doing. Data entry couldnt be easier. I couldnt be more pleased.

Not that great

The weight tracker is not good. You cant scroll to the left. Basically, all it does is let you input your weight.

Great App

Does what it says and works smooth ….

Shantanu Jain · 14 years ago

This is a very good tool for monitoring weight loss (or gain). Id give it five stars if it allowed me to see the whole graph, and not just one month at a time, and if it projected when Id reach my goal weight at the current pace of my weight loss to date.

good

works well. i would like to see them add a function where you can text your weight in

Stooge00 · 14 years ago

This app was exactly what I was looking for. I was tracking my weight in Excel but the resulting column of dates and weights was hardly intuitive or motivating. This app makes tracking your weight a breeze, in a visually appealing way. Well worth the $1.99 that I paid for it!

UPDATED REVIEW FOUR STARS for Excellent Support ... Posted my review and got help from Jim on how to manage user profiles in Weight-Monitor: To delete a user just remove the users folder from the /Users/<your name>/Application Support/Weight Monitor folder. So either just delete it or move it somewhere else. THANK YOU! INITIAL REVIEW I bought this app for the multi-user capability and I soon discovered that you cannot delete the profiles of any users you create, nor rename the default user name that is generated by the app to begin with. Being able to manage user profiles (Adding/deleting/Renaming) is important ... especially since your app says that it can be used to look back at previous attempts to loose or gain weight. I see that as a good feature if one could for example rename a user profiles or delete them as needed.

Thank you for your efforts, I hope that I made my concerns clear.

Like another reviewer, Id like to be able to delete a user name (it defaulted upon purchase to my Apple ID, and wouldnt let me delete that)… I see that I can add a different name, but would like to have that screen empty of extraneous entries … the suggested method---under user data in Application Support in Finder --- didnt work. Should not have to go through a back door like that in the first place. Otherwise, this looks like a useful app, and the price isnt inappropriate.

Purchased this app a week ago. Enjoyed it at first. Loosing weight and feeling good. Turned it on today to record weigh in, and the graph isnt working properly. It has me gaining weight all week, but when you to the the monthly part, it shows my weight loss. Doesnt work correctly.

Faulty Graph As Well

I have the same problem with the graph not showing the historical data as well. Defeats the usfulness of the program. Dont buy until fixed.

Robin1943 · 12 years ago

Im sure there are less user-friendly apps out there, but Im having a hard time thinking of one. This is the least intuitive program Ive worked with in a long time. Its great at yelling at you for all the things youre doing wrong, but a little less helpful in explaining what it wants. When I enter a number, some approximation comes up. For example, set a target weight of 150 lbs, my new target reads 153.9 Why? I have no idea. Good in concept, and if you can get it to work it does perform as advertised. Its getting it to work thats the key.

Lady_BD · 12 years ago

Totally useless. Won’t switch to pounds, graph won’t switch from June 2011, no Help function at all, start/finish calendars don’t save entries and default to 1982 every time, height units preference won’t save either. A complete waste of money.

BGV541 · 11 years ago

Waste of Money

Zero functionality - DOES NOT WORK - won’t change to pounds, and won’t change date. Beware - do not purchase...

Stephen England · 10 years ago

Not intuitive

Yeah, sorry Jim, it's just not very intuitive. What 's a rolling average, anyway? I guess I was just looking for something a little simpler, with dates actually displayed or clickable. Makes me want to go grab a Quarter Pounder, haha.

Need a Quarter Pounder · 2 years ago

What a F….g Garbage

I was not even able to do anything, it does not work at all, I know it is just 2 dollars but they are making money out us and giving you nothing.

Broken

Garbage- Does not work.

Useless app

Totally useless. Won’t switch to pounds, graph won’t switch from June 2011, no Help function at all, start/finish calendars don’t save entries and default to 1982 every time, height units preference won’t save either. A complete waste of money.

BGV541 · 11 years ago

Worthless

Opened up the app and could not use it. the program would not change Kkilograms to pounds. The support tab does not get you to support but only an advertisement for the company that wrote the program. If you go to contact, there is no work space to leave a memo about ones difficulties. In short the program does not work. Of no value to me or anyone else.

Using this program is a workout

I'm sure there are less user-friendly apps out there, but I'm having a hard time thinking of one. This is the least intuitive program I've worked with in a long time. It's great at yelling at you for all the things you're doing wrong, but a little less helpful in explaining what it wants. When I enter a number, some approximation comes up.

OK for starters
