it works, but takes effort to sync to your phone without a polar fitness watch as the intermediary,

December 5, 2016

Color: WhiteVerified Purchase

It's a scale, it weighs you. It's also Bluetooth so it sends your weight to your phone, if you manage to get it setup properly. I hear this is pretty easy to sync if you tether this scale to a polar fitness watch, but if you don't have a polar fitness watch to tether it too, well, you're in a for a treat and some hoops to jump through. After wasting plenty of time trying to figure out how to get this scale to sync without the use of a polar fitness watch, I went to the web to search for instructions. After a brief search on polars support site, I found what I was looking for, a way to sync to your phone without a polar fitness watch. It seems in order to do this, you have to first create an account the polar flow web site, then from there you tell it that you have a polar balance scale and enter your serial number for it. after that, you have to download the polar flow app to your phone and log in and let it sync with the polar flow website. once it syncs, it will bring down the polar balance scale to your flow app and THEN you will be able to sync your balance to your phone without the use of a fitness watch. Only caveat is that you have to open the flow app, then go to the 'balance" link in the menu and from there you hit the like icon of scale and it'll then say it's waiting for your scale to sync. you then step on the polar balance scale and it'll then sync to the flow app.

Another way to do it is if you have a Samsung phone and you use the s-health app. You can add the polar balance as an accessory and when you step on the scale, it will sync your weight to the s-health app. sometimes you have to have the app open and on the weight page and sometimes you don't. it's strange how it works. most of the time the polar balance will just sync immediately to my s-health app without me having to open it, but not always.

other than the hoops I had to jump through to get it to sync without a polar watch, it seems to work well enough at least. I took 1 star off because of the pain I went through trying to figure out how to sync without the watch, other than that, I like the scale. Would be nice if it did more than just weight and if it was wifi, but oh well, I got it during the black Friday sale so I can't complain about the lack of features.

Simple scale backed by Polar's awesome Flow service!

January 10, 2016

Color: White

Purchased directly from Polar's website. You must first pair the scale to a compatible tracker such as the V800 or M400. Once paired, you can either have the scale sync to your tracker or use the Polar Flow app (iOS or Google Play) to sync your weight. I have been syncing to the Polar Flow app as this is the quickest way. You simply open the Flow app, go to the Balance section in the menu and there is a "add weight" icon at the top right. Once you select this icon, the Flow app will wait for your weight in. Step on the scale and it will beep once it has taken your measurement. The Balance then sends that data to the Flow app (or your tracker if you put it into pairing mode). It's amazingly fast.

Once the data is in the Flow service, Polar gives you the option to set a specific target weight along with suggesting the amount of time to achieve that goal. For instance, if you say you want to drop 5 pounds, it will suggest a 4 week period. The Flow service then shows you a balance scale with your food on the left and activity on the right. The idea is that to attain your goal, you must either eat properly, or get in more activity, hence the name "Balance". I find Polar's visual approach very good and it even gives you suggestions on food consumption and lengths of activities to try to keep you on track.

Two reasons for removing a star from the review. The Balance only gives weight, it does NOT do any other measurements such as body fat %. Even if body fat % is not as accurate on these types of scales, at least having it measured consistently helps give a better view of your body over time. Second is that I wish the scale had wifi instead of Bluetooth. There are benefits to each, but having both would have been better for less "friction" to getting data into the Polar Flow service instead of having to open the Flow app and/or sync directly to your activity tracker.

Overall, it's a simple scale, but the combination of having a Polar tracker and the Flow service helps keep you motivated to find make it to your target. I've included a few screen shots of the Flow service as well.
