You have two options to set up your scale for multiple users:
- Option 1 - Groups all users under the same account/email
- Option 2 - Creates separate Withings App accounts for each user
Note: There is a limit of 8 users per scale.
Option 1 - Grouping all users under the same Withings App account
Once you've set up your scale on a Withings App account, all the users who have a profile under this account can use the scale. Please note that because this account is shared among its users, all users can access the data from other users by switching users within the app. This option is often used for households/families who are sharing a single scale.
If necessary, you can always add more users to your Withings App account:
- Open the Withings App
- Tap Profile.
- Scroll down to Family and tap Add.
- Fill in the new user information and validate.
Note: The weight you assign for the new user will be used by the scale’s automatic recognition algorithm. The scale will recognize the user based on the weight manually entered into the app during setup. - The new user immediately appears in your app.
Note: You will need to weigh yourself once more before the scale receives the new user information.
Option 2 - Creating a separate Withings App account
You can create a separate Withings App account for each user to make sure everyone's data stays private.
Once the new account has been created, you can share the access to your scale to the new account by performing the following steps:
- Open the Withings App.
- Go to Devices.
- Tap Body+.
- Tap Share (iOS) or Share your scale (Android).
- Select how you want to share your scale and who you want to share it with.
A link, which will be valid for 72 hours, will then be sent to the persons you’ve invited. They will be able to link the scale to their account from there, without having to install it from scratch.
Note that the Share your scale option is only available if you have originally set up the scale in Wi-Fi. If you've set it up in Bluetooth, you'll have to install the scale from scratch on the new account.
