FITTRACK SCALE REVIEW: THE BEST HOME SMART SCALE AVAILABLE?
Traditional scales can tell you about one facet of health, but wellness is measured in much more than  
just pounds. For a more complete picture, you might want to consider investing in a smart scale like  
the $89.95 FitTrack Dara, which tracks 17 metrics, including your basal metabolic rate (BMR), body  
mass index (BMI), body fat percentage, body water percentage, bone mass, fat mass, metabolic age,  
muscle mass, muscle rate, protein mass, protein rate, subcutaneous fat, visceral fat, weight without  
fat, and, of course, your actual weight (up to 400 pounds). Its companion app helps you understand  
the metrics it tracks and keeps a record of them, so you can monitor your progress over time. But it's  
pretty pricey compared with the $20 Wyze Scale, which doesn't track quite as many metrics, but offers 
 greater value.
Design and Setup
The FitTrack Dara is a compact smart scale, measuring just 10.23 by 10.23 inches (HW). I wear size 9 
 women's shoes, and my feet just fit on it. If your feet are bigger than a size 9 women's or size 7 
men's,  your toes will probably be hanging off.
Looks-wise, the FitTrack Dara features an attractive white-and-silver design reminiscent of the $79.99 
 Arboleaf Smart Fitness Scale, only smaller. Both have four metal electrodes on the top, and four
anti-skid pads on the bottom for safety.

Unlike some other smart scales that are rechargeable, like the QardioBase 2, the FitTrack Dara is powered by  
4 AAA batteries, which aren't included in the box. Once you install the batteries, the scale will automatically  
turn on when at least 6.61 pounds or more is placed on it, then automatically turn off 10 seconds after it's  used. 
Without pairing the scale to the FitTrack Pro app (available for Android and iOS), it will only show your  body 
weight. Once connected to the app, you'll be able to see your body fat percentage and other metrics.
The FitTrack Dara connects to your phone via Bluetooth, not Wi-Fi, so it will only send your measurements to  
the app if your phone is within the limited Bluetooth range. Smart scales that support Wi-Fi, such as the  
Arboleaf and QardioBase 2, can send your data to their companion app via either Wi-Fi or Bluetooth, so if one  
is down there's a backup. Wi-Fi also lets you connect to the scale and get your measurements from  anywhere.
When creating an account, you enter a nickname, gender, birthday, height, target weight, and optionally  
upload a photo of yourself. You also have the option to enable Athlete Mode, which promises more accurate  
results for those who exercise vigorously three to five days a week or have a physically demanding  
profession.
The app then asks for permission to use Bluetooth. After I pressed OK, it automatically connected to the  
scale.
Using the FitTrack Dara
Before stepping on, be sure to place the scale on a firm, level surface, not a carpet. Tap the scale with your  
foot to activate it, and wait for it to display 0.0. Then open the FitTrack Dara app on your phone, step on the  
scale with bare feet, stand up tall, and make sure both of your feet are uniformly situated over the metal  
electrodes. In testing, I found that the scale only syncs your data if you have the app open when you step on  it, 
unlike Wi-Fi scales, which can sync at any point. When taking your measurements, the scale will first  display 
your weight, then will show flashing zeros as it analyzes your body composition. When it displays your  weight 
again, the analysis is complete, and you can see all your measurements in the FitTrack Pro app. In  testing, the 
body composition analysis only took a couple of seconds. The scale can display your weight in  pounds, 
kilograms, or stones; you can change the weight unit setting in the app's Me tab. FitTrack  recommends using 
the scale at the same time, under the same conditions each day. The company says to  avoid using it during or 
immediately after strenuous activity, as doing so can affect the accuracy of your body  composition 
measurements. You should also avoid using it after consuming alcohol, during or immediately  after eating, or if 
you have a fever. The company says the scale may display an error message if your body fat  percentage is 
less than 5 percent or more than 50 percent. The scale isn't meant for children under the age  of 18, but it 
features a unique Infant Mode that can be used to determine the weight of a baby. Just tap the  three dots in 
the upper right corner of the app's Home tab, select Weigh Infant, step on the scale by yourself  to measure 
your weight, then step on the scale with the baby in your arms, and the FitTrack Dara will  measure your little 
one's weight.

I’ve listed below all the body metrics the Fit Track smart scale tracks and records in the FitTrack smartphone app:
1. Weight – Accurate to +/- 300grams
2. BMI (body mass index)
3. BFP (body fat percentage)
4. Muscle rate (percentage)
5. Body water (percentage) – Maintain optimal levels of hydration every day
6. Bone mass – Discover your body’s foundational composition
7. BMR (basal metabolic rate)
8. Protein rate
9. Metabolic age
10. Visceral fat index
11. Subcutaneous fat
12. Standard weight – Ideal weight
13. Weight control – The difference between your actual and standard weight)
14. Fat mass – Get a clearer picture of your overall health Weight without fat
15. Muscle mass – Understand if you’re losing fat, gaining strength, or both Protein mass
The Fit Track scale app explains how each of these rates is calculated and where applicable tracks them against the preset low, standard and high  
levels for someone of your profile (taking into account factors such as your age, gender and height).
How do you use the FitTrack scale with the app?
Once set up, have your phone with the FitTrack app open within Bluetooth range of the Fit Track scale (within a few feet is ideal). Then stand on the  
Fit Track scale to measure your weight and other metrics. The smart scale and app will automatically sync your body composition measurements  
within a few seconds – the app will tell you when it’s done and you can then step off the scale. The whole process only takes a few seconds to  
complete which is impressive.
Price and availability
The FitTrack Dara Smart Body BMI Scale has had an average price of £75/$85 since it first went on sale. However, at the time of writing you can get it  
for around £49/$79. You can purchase it directly from FitTrack or Amazon in the UK, and FitTrack and Amazon in the US.
This is a competitive price, considering that other scales which offer similar measurements, such as the Withings Body Cardio, cost a lot more. The  
most similar rival would be the Eufy BodySense Smart Scale, which comes in slightly cheaper, but measures fewer metrics.
