Hi peeps, just wondering about a few questions which I hope people who use this weight tracker app could please answer:

1: Is there any option where I enter my height, gender? Or is this not possible?
2: How do I enter my BMI?
3: Is it okay just to enter my weight each day only?

    1: Settings - User Details
    2: Automatically calculated for you based on height you put in user details and the weight you log in.
    3: As opposed to?

    1) settings under user details, but you can't enter gender.
    2) You don't, it calculates it for you.
    3) you can enter in your weight whenever you want. I'm not sure I understand this question? Press the little circled plus sign to enter your weight for the day, and you can do this daily or weekly or monthly etc. THe more you do it the more data you have.

    I use Libra app.

    1. To enter height go to: Settings: User details. I believe I entered my weight and gender and such when I first set up the app.

    2. It calculates your BMI automatically. I have mine set up to show BMI classes on my chart as well.

    3. I am not sure what else you would enter other than your weight daily.

    Thanks peeps. Number 3, I meant only using it to literally enter the weight, not bother with any other settings or focusing on the bmi or the body fat. If that makes it clearer. One last question: Do I tick the box that says ''Use trend values''?

    I don't even look at BMI or BF. I mean, it says my BMI in the stats but I don't look at graphs for them.

    You can use trend values, I use real values.

    I also use the real values.

    I don't have graphs for BMI Ana, it just shows the lines for the different classes of overweight and obese on my main graph that shows my weight line

    Oh...well yeah, I guess thats why the confusion...Libra is a daily weight tracking app, so thats all you have to enter.

    Trend or Real values is up to personal preference...I prefer to keep track of my weight trend...its the whole reason I got the app so for that capability I use that.

    Have you updated the app? Mine updated recently, if you press the little left-handed menu in the top corner it has 3 different graphs. The BMI one looks identical to the weight one though.
