The Withings Facebook app! Wanna be a beta tester?

Hear ye ! Hear ye! I am very proud to announce that we are about to release a Facebook application to play with your body scale! Yes, you read that correctly. This application is designed to monitor your own weight and your friend’s weight with fun, motivation and efficiency.

How is this possible, you might ask? Well, it’s simple my dear friend. This application is called “Guess My Weight”. The main goal is to figure out if your friends will be heavier or thinner on their next weigh in. You can bet on the next weigh in result, according to your intuition. To help you make this decision, you can access your friends’ graphs, in order to pick out a global trend.

It’s now even easier to follow your weight trend!

As announced in the blog post about the iPad app, you can now display your moving average curve in your graph. It’s the white line that you can see below:

rubiTrack synchronies with Withings

The great software rubiTrack, just released its new version: Rubitrack 2.3. If you don’t know what rubiTrack is, it’s an activity tracking and an exercise journal software for Mac. It lets you display, analyze and organize your indoor and outdoor workouts for sports such as running, biking, walking, hiking or skiing.

What tweets do you want?

Some of you asked us to change the default message the scale currently tweets (by introducing fat mass or lean mass or the difference since the last weigh-in, etc...).

We have two requirements here : we want to keep it simple and user-friendly.
We believe that enabling fully customizable tweets will be to confusing for most of the users and adding too many variables in the tweets will let you with no place to make a personal comment (because of the 140 characters rule).

In order to keep it simple and user-friendly and also in order to implicate you in the decision, we'd like to have your opinion about the following propositions.

Let's take an example : I just get my Withings scale and following my first weigh-in (180 lbs) I decide to start a diet to lose some weight. Thus on my Withings account, I enable the objective feature (see this post) to 170 lbs. The week after that, I weigh myself in and I get 178 lbs. Another week after, I weigh myself in and I get 177lbs. What would you like to see on Twitter :





Of course if you haven't set up any weight objective, you'll only get your weight (and potentially the difference with your last weigh-in).

ps : Don't forget to answer the new poll of the month on the right side of the blog. It's very important to us ;)

Preview : Wiscale for iPad !

Breaking news! As many of you have requested, Withings is currently developing a free iPad version of Wiscale: Wiscale HD. Here is a small demo of Wiscale HD’s beta (Beware, it's very cheesy).

A legend... Wait for it... Dary product review !

I just wanted to share with you an impressive article made by DC Rainmaker. He’s a modest triathlete and a runner : « I I run, I bike, and I do something resembling swimming. And at the end of the day… I blog about it. But other than that last detail – I’m just like you.”

He made one of the most detailed and complete product reviews I have ever seen! Not only did he described in depth every step of his experience with the Withings scale, but he also tested the scale’s features (twitter, Wiscale, …) and some of our partnerships (RunKeeper, TrainingPeaks, Google Health, …).

Enjoy the ride!
