Withings Body Smart Review: A Connected Scale For the Masses that includes baby/pet weight (www.howtogeek.com)

I like devices that are not locked into an OS ecosystem (Apple, I'm looking at you!) and although I already have a Fitbit Aria scale, it gets thrown out when my wife stands on the scale with a pet, to get the pet's weight (you weigh yourself, hold the pet, and then work out the difference). Having a built-in pet/baby mode is actually really useful.

But Withings also has some other interesting features like Eyes-Closed mode, Athlete mode, Pregnancy mode, etc apart from all the usual smart scale measurement features. And of course it will sync to Apple and Google/Samsung Health, and Strava or MyFitnessPal.

Thankfully the Withings+ subscription is not needed for any of the above functionality, so I may seriously consider buying this scale.
