how often does the scale update with the app?

I'd have to research a response on the Withings web site. Another person has responded to your inquiry, and the answer seems plausible. Withings finally responded to my comments about the accuracy of the scale and it's inability to distinguish between users. If users weights are less than 10 pounds apart, each will have to stand on either the left or right leg to tell the scale which person is on the scales. I reaffirm my opinion that this is just something assembled so the company has something to sell rather than meeting a consumer need with a well engineered and serviceable appliance.

As long as you stand long enough for the scale to stabilize it should give you the same weight each time. What I mean by stabilize is once you've been on it a few seconds it will blink and then the number stays even when you step off so you can read it easier. I weighed myself, then do it again while leaning forward, then again leaning backwards, and then I stood on it with only one foot. I got the same exact reading each time.

I don't know but the scale works perfectly in all the applications I use it for.

The scale usually responds immediately, but sometimes it takes about 20 seconds. If your working with tiny weights, it helps if you put your finger on the scale and take it of; it seems to reset the scale. Remember this is not a $300 scale. I'm willing to put up with stuff for the price. I've checked it with some balance weights and it checks fine.

1-2 seconds. once your weight is on the scale it is very fast, blinking 3 times when the weight is captured. it seems to be able to capture even when your balance changes. there is (a-ha!) no way to stand differently to register a smaller weight! no changing locations on the floor. of course, it needs to be on a hard floor.

It's accurate to a tenth of a pound. It does weigh consistantly, so if you step off and weigh yourself again there isn't a difference, unlike cheaper scales.

It does take a little time, but it seems to be dependent on stable weight distribution on the scale. It needs your weight to be still, not varying in where balances. Hope this makes sense.

The way it works is you open the app then step on the scale. If it turns off, just step off the back on while you have the app still open. I will tell you that I got one of these for Christmas and before January 10th, it had stopped working. I will also tell you that I'm 35 yrs old, 6ft tall and weigh 192lbs. That scale continuously told me I was obese. Even with it showing my accurate weight. It's not a very nice motivator.lol. I'm glad it died.

not exactly sure...my husband adjusts the time with the buttons on the bottom of the scale.

I believe it takes a measurement everytime it is used, you can see the number fluctuate if you are moving or holding on to something. It seems very consistent I have weighed free weights just to test it out and it has been correct everytime.

It is not automatic, but the app has a camera tool built in, so as soon as it focuses on the scale and locates the weight reading, it scans the data and shows you the result for confirmation. On my tablet, somedays that only takes a second or two, but sometime the camera focus won't lock on, and it takes 5-10 seconds. ( But I am pretty sure that's my tablet's problem )

I have used my scale daily for approximately two months and the original batteries are still being used. They are going strong, so I can't really answer this question. I have found with two previous scales that the original batteries last much longer than the ones I use to replace.

They have actually just updated the app and surprisingly it got a lot more user friendly and accurate! I had mine for several month now, never regretted buying it!

On mine, I can put the weight on and then tap the on/off//tare function on the left. The scale beeps and resets to zero after a slight lag. During that lag, the scale looks like it isn't responding, then it resets.

I had that scale for a few weeks only. It never worked properly, I tried on different surfaces around the apartment. It would show different numbers every time I weighed myself and it went dead in about a month. It's not reliable, so you can't really trust what the scale shows.

It shows current weight whatever that is as would any normal scale, it doesn't track changes from day to day but that can easily be done by keeping notes.

This scale does need you to be still for a moment, but it responds quickly. If you are moving, you do shift the weight that is shown on the display. It can give you a couple of different weights if you move too much.
