Beuer BF 720 - wrong body fat measurements
Describe the bug When using my Beuer BF 720 with openScale it tells me my body fat would be 27 %. When checking with Beuer's app, I get 8 %. The value with openScale is definitely wrong.
To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:
- I do a test measure with the Beuer health manager to check my body fat value.
- I perform a measure with the openScale app and compare the body fat value.
- OpenScale recognizes the measure, but even when the weight is correct, the body fat is off.
Reproduced with latest dev version: Initially I installed 2.5.2 but even when downloading the dev-build I get the same result. (I just installed the dev build over the normal one, in the settings I still see 2.5.2, not sure if I should have uninstalled it first).
Expected behavior Body fat value should be correct.
Additional context
- I setup die Beuer app first and during the initial process a user was created. I did a first measure and everythig got logged (iPhone).
- I installed openScale on my Android, started it, and I got a pop up to select my user which i created before, but when trying to do so I'm asked for a PIN which I don't have. Is this normal?
- Therefore, I created a new user within openScale and this user is also visible on my BF 720. But even when I choose "male", my openScale user on the Beuer display shows me as "female". Is this a know behavior?
I already deleted all users and redid the setup, but the behavior stays the same.
