Stats That Stack Up Weight should be thought of as more than a one-dimensional digit; understanding your body’s unique composition is your first step in taking action towards better health. The Smart Scale uses height and weight calculations to identify metabolic rate and body mass which help you know if you’re burning or building muscle and fat. Start Making Fitness a Lifestyle The Smart Scale works with Pivotal Living Band Activity + Sleep Tracker to track weight, nutrition, calories burned and daily movements—including steps taken and distance traveled—to help you lose weight, increase daily activity and efficiently reach your fitness goals.

The smooth glass top, clean styling, and modern-looking premium OLED screen make it strong and stylish enough to keep on display for all to see and use. With room for up to 16 different user profiles, the Smart Scale is the perfect addition to any high-traffic powder room or family bathroom.. Stay on track. With Pivotal Living there is no longer a need to keep a weight log or journal—the Pivotal Living app does it all for you, for free. The scale first calculates BMI, BMR, fat percentage and lean body mass then privately sends your weigh-ins upon syncing to your smartphone using Bluetooth 4.0 technology. Eat smarter—for free. The Pivotal Living mobile app (basic access included for free with the scale) allows you to quickly record daily food servings in an easy-to-use visual log. It’s a great added resource for those looking to gain or lose weight though dieting or simply curious enough to see their nutritional intake over time. What is BMI/BMR and why should I care? Body Mass Index (BMI) is an equation that gives you a health rating based on height and weight and serves as a quick guide in measuring underweight, overweight or healthy weight. The higher the BMI, the greater the odds of developing weight-related diseases like heart disease and diabetes. Weight-to-height ratio and body fat percentage paint a more complete picture of health than body weight alone, and can help you determine whether or not you are burning fat and building muscle. Did you know that your body burns quite a bit of calories just by keeping vital body functions going? Your BMR (Basal Metabolic Rate) is an estimate of how many calories you'd burn in 24 hours even if you did nothing but lay down all day. While you can’t change your BMR overnight, knowing your number can help motivate you to make smarter lifestyle choices. About the Startup Describe your product in 3 words. Intuitive. Motivational. Affordable. How did you come up with the idea for this product? Well, our idea started with a problem: most wireless smart scales are way too expensive. The Pivotal Living Bluetooth Smart Scale is the first high-quality and awesomely affordable smart scale that works just as well (if not better) than similar devices on the market costing much, much more. What makes your product special? It’s easy to say the affordable price is what makes us special, but its robust feature set is accompanied by a beautiful open the box experience, reinforcing our commitment to quality, design and functional throughput. When paired with our flagship activity and sleep monitoring Pivotal Living Band, a whole new level of self-empowered tracking capabilities is enabled for a more complete picture of you. What has been the best part of your startup experience? No doubt, our members! We get so much satisfaction in hearing that they’ve increased their physical activity, lost weight, toned up, increased muscle mass, gained confidence or have otherwise benefited from our products. Present and future members should rest assured knowing there is a small team of Pivotal Living employees in Seattle, WA cheering you on as you begin (or continue) your personal health and wellness journey with us.

Unable to use at all
Amazing promoted this and I bought it..less than half a year later the app is gone and the company shuttered without notice. It would've been nice if the app was kept around for the customers it cheated but now the only thing you can use it for is to measure your weight. Once you run out of batteries though, you need to reset the scale but you can o it do that via the app. Now I have an expensive brick.

Pivotal company shut down, scale bluetotooth features does not work
I bought both the scale and the activity tracker watch and now I realized that they don't work because the company has ben shut down. [...]/ you can see the company posted "Thanks for visiting Pivotal Living. We regret to inform you that due to unforeseen legal and financing constraints, Pivotal Corporation has shut down and has been dissolved per Washington State Law RCW 23B.14. We apologize for any inconvenience and disappointment. "I would like a refund from Amazon however they do not accept itWearing thing is Amazon is still selling it.....

sync'd perfectly & it's working for her perfectly - no issues ....
Another outstanding product from Pivotal - bought this as a gift for one of the nice folks in our bible study group - she has a Samsung 4s - worked perfectly - she did have to reboot her phone initially - as she NEVER turns her phone off & of course - there was something goofy with the Bluetooth the first time - post reboot - sync'd perfectly & it's working for her perfectly - no issues ....

Scale is great but support sucks.
5 stars for the scale, 0 stars for their support.I have a problem with the app replacing the scale's recorded weight with yesterday's weight - which is really the weight from the day before, which is really the weight from the day before that, etc., etc. There is no way in the app or their website to tell them I'm having a problem that's not covered by the FAQs, the troubleshooting tips, or the user manuals. So I can't get help, and I am screwed.

sometime crash happy app, and 3+ months of being back ordered ...
Really decent scale. It has flaked out a couple times and switched to "Stones". The website isn't all that helpful. It is real close to a 5-Star review, but the random glitches, sometime crash happy app, and 3+ months of being back ordered on the compatible fitness band, make it less.

So much effort designing a bad scale. Look elsewhere.
This scale is replacing another scale I had that one of my pets peed on and ruined. The old scale had repeatable results measuring Body fat, Water weight, Bone mass, Body mass index, and of course weight. I got it for like $20 or 30 at target and worked great. The Pivotal Living scale on the other hand is cumbersome to use at best. I was interested in this scale so I could keep track of weight over time via the phone app.Major Complaints:1. With an iPhone 5s this thing takes two to three tries to connect to the bluetooth of the phone EVERY SINGLE TIME. I've tried every combination of turning on the scale first, selecting the scale on the phone then turning it one etc, nothing works first time.2. Tracking your weight on this thing is useless. This thing doesn't track you by each time you weigh yourself but instead by every day in the week. If you don't weigh yourself for a week then it gives you weight statistics based on empty values. Confused? Just trust me, it's worthless for any meaningful tracking. You're better off writing down the numbers and the date on a note pad and graphing it by hand. It would even be quicker with all the time spent fumbling around connecting and navigating the app.3. Inaccurate body fat measurements. I have an actual body fat, measured manually and with my old scale, of between 5-6% but this scale reads me at 12.8%, over double.4. Less measurements. This scale only retains 3 of the 5 measurements my old scale did, only two if you don't count the one that isn't accurate.5. Weight measurement isn't accurate to the decimal as advertised. I took this test to the next level. I weighed myself in at 119.2 lbs. Went pee measuring 16 fluid ounces or approximately 1 pound worth of weight lost. Weighed myself again and still 119.2 lbs. Waited 10 minutes and weighed a third time, 118.8, a different number but still half a pound too high. I of course make sure it's zeroed every time.I really wish I had more good to say about this scale but there really isn't much at this point. If you want a scale that gives you a semi accurate weight and nothing else then one can easily be found at any store and probably even on amazon for less than a third the price.

Was great while the company lasted...
Pivotal Living has gone out of business so their app no longer works. Without the app, there's no way to sync to the scale. Without being able to sync, the scale doesn't have the information to measure body composition.So pretty much it's just a digital scale that promised to be much more. At least it was relatively cheap.
