Accurate Body Fat Calculator

This application uses an advanced formula, that takes into consideration not only your height, weight and waist, but also the hip, neck, wrist and forearm circumference (for women), in order to provide the most accurate body fat estimate you can get without specialized equipment. A person's body fat percentage is the total weight of the person's fat divided by the person's weight and consists of essential body fat and storage body fat. The body fat percentage is a good measure of an individual's fitness level, as it is the only body measurement which directly calculates the particular individual's body composition without regard to the individual's height or weight. The widely-used body mass index (BMI) provides a measure that allows for the comparison of individuals of different heights in terms of their weight. Due to differences in body composition the BMI is not necessarily an accurate indicator of body fat, for example individuals with greater than average muscle mass will have a higher BMI. Many bodybuilding and weightlifting enthusiasts measure their bodyfat percentage using a caliper skinfold test
- a professional body fat caliper that measures the thickness of a fold of your skin with its underlying layer of fat. This is the most accurate way to measure your bodyfat, but unless you have the specialized caliper this free app provides the most detailed way to monitor your body composition and the effects of your exercise routine on your body, whether you are a gymrat, powerlifting fan, and bodybuilder or just trying to stay in shape.

Worked wonderfully for ages, then my phone had a software update & now the app won't even open, it crashes out & closes down in under 2secs. Such a shame

First time inputting my numbers and it couldn't calculate it. A box came up saying, "Can not correctly estimate body fat percentage based on the provided measurements. Verify the numbers and try again." Basically the app couldn't handle a person 63 inches tall weighing over 350. Useless for anyone wanting an added aid as they lose weight.

There are lots of different ways to measure body fat. You cannot measure based on activity. It's not that much effective

Tri. H. Mar 2, 2015     

Yes the % changes with activity level because measurements remain the same. It thinks you have more muscle. I'm glad this is such little work. Lol

I used to recommend this app to my clients (I am a personal trainer ) to keep up with their body fat between caliper testing. The last update made it very in accurate. Even on the body builder setting (which should give the lowest) it is registering about 4% high. Please bring back the old version .

Your percentage changes depending on the activity level you select. I'm 24% at "normal," 22% at "active" and 19% at "bodybuilder." 24% is "fit" per the ACE chart and "ideal" for a woman my age per the Jackson & Pollock chart, but the app puts it in the could-stand-to-lose-some-weight category. This app can give you a reasonable range of figures for your body fat percentage, but look elsewhere for actual fitness advice.

I weigh 125 and am 67 inches tall. It says I should lose weight. Any more and I will be a frigging stick!

Only the Navy Tape method, and the result is buried between a ton of ads

Nar. N. Jan 10, 2015     

I know how one looks like at a certain body fat % and all the other apps in the store were nowhere close to this app in accuracy, moreover I don't see any Advts now....devs, keep up the good work....kudos!

Nic. C. May 27, 2015     

Called me obese when you can feel my ribs in an unhealthy way at 15bls lighter than I am

Sav. A. Feb 11, 2015     

It was inaccurate for sure and way off.

Dan. C. Feb 23, 2015     

Say's I'm at 20% at athletic and 18% on bodybuilder..but I did 2 other diff sites that measured body fat% that required more measurements and they both said I was at 14%...doesn't seem that accurate.. Idk

Raf. S. Jan 18, 2015     

Very good and acurate

And. A. Mar 5, 2015     

Waste of time

Ale. S. Dec 12, 2014     

ITS A GREAT APP DOES EXACTLY WHAT IT SHOULD BUT EVERY 10 SECONDS YOU GET SPAM APP ADVERTISING! very annoying!

Owe. C. Aug 3, 2014     

This app spam ads everytime you input your height information.

Iva. S. Nov 19, 2014     

This is the best app when it comes to the closest and accurate results.

Rel. A. Nov 27, 2014     

Its pretty much useless

Zin. D. P. Oct 31, 2013     

There are more ads in this app than the app functionality itself. The ads just ruin the user experience here, I hate opening this app.

Anu. P. Jan 15, 2014     

Thanks

Jer. Y. Sep 13, 2013     

Thinks I'm double my actual percentage

Joh. W. I. May 18, 2013     

I don't know if this is actually accurate or not, but I'm loving the progress I'm seeing! If nothing else it keeps your last measurements on so you can see them before you change them, but you may have to check the fitness level if you're a bodybuilder, etc.

Tak. R. Aug 24, 2013     

The app ia good, but will never be as accurate as people want. The best way to get body fat is still by calipers, but this is still helpful to see if my bodyfat is getting lower or not.

Kev. T. Aug 17, 2013     

I can tell you as a trainee personal trainer, it's completely wrong!!! I'm about 23-24% bf after a mass bulk, this claims I am 18%, which trust me, visually is a massive difference!!! Don't bother with it.

Ken. T. Jun 11, 2013     

I hope you like push ads. Pushes ads on to your notification bar

Orl. C. Apr 22, 2013     

App it is good BUT it was so important the option of remove ads

A. G. u. Feb 3, 2013     

This app is accurate if you are measuring correctly. It would be great if they added the BMR along with how many pounds are muscle and fat.

A. G. u. Jul 30, 2012     

The results are way off compared to the doctor's and trainer's results.

Joe. L. Dec 2, 2012     

The most accurate yet

A. G. u. Sep 21, 2012     

It dose not take in to account hips or arms like is claimed
