Health for Tanita provides direct access to the health metrics stored in MyTanita. Just enter your Tanita credentials and all of the health metrics that you have uploaded from your Tanita weighing scale will be available on your iPhone or iPad.
Dont have a Tanita account or a scale that integrates with Tanita?
No problem. If you have any scale that displays body composition metrics, then you can simply enter them in to the Health for Tanita app and store them locally.
Options for using Health for Tanita:
* If you have a Tanita BC-1000 or similar scale that connects and uploads metrics to MyTanita.com:
- Connect Health for Tania to MyTanita using your MyTanita credentials (in Settings)
- Download your Tanita metrics from MyTanita.com
* If you have a Tanita BC-601 or similar that does not have external connectivity:
- Read your data from the SD card in your scale (perhaps using a WiFi enabled SD card) and store that data in a cloud account such as Apple iCloud, DropBox, OneDrive, etc.
- Choose the option to "Store Local Data" in Settings
- Import your data from the cloud location using the "Import external data" feature
* If you dont have your own biometric scale at all but have access to one (i.e. in a gym, etc.):
- Choose the option to "Store Local Data" in Settings
- Manually enter your metric values

DISCLAIMER: Please note that this app only displays the metrics either entered and stored by you or stored on the Tanita website. As such, it should not be considered a diagnostic tool but simply applies industry standard boundaries to the metrics you enter. For example, if you enter your body fat as 60% it will be displayed in red indicating obesity. If, however, you have any concerns regarding the values generated by your Tanita scale and displayed in this app, then you should seek a doctor’s advice before making any medical decisions.
