Happy Scale
Happy Scale suits someone who wants weight changes viewed as a trend rather than a series of isolated readings. Its Apple-only reach is clear, and the core tracker costs nothing to start. Paid tiers add premium features, while lifetime access avoids a recurring charge. Check the lack of a named watch app and the iPad Apple Health restriction before choosing it. If you use several devices, treat Dropbox syncing as optional and verify that your profiles link correctly.
- Moving averages reduce the effect of daily scale swings.
- Milestones divide a larger target into smaller goals.
- Forecasts estimate timing for a target weight.
RUNALYZE
RUNALYZE suits an endurance athlete who wants detailed analysis after training rather than a watch app that coaches a session live. Its broad import options and historical connections make it useful for combining data from several services, while the free tier covers core performance measures. Activities must reach the account through a connected service, upload, or API, and the Android app is only a companion. Check platform availability, browser requirements, and which Premium tools matter before paying yearly.
- Estimates effective VO2max from heart rate and pace.
- Predicts races from 3 km through ultramarathon.
- Imports data through many services, files, and APIs.
