" What is your BMI ? "

The application has not yet detailed description, however the team assigned the note of 8 / 10. This note is based on the following criteria: Quality, Usefulness, Ease of Use, Privacy Concerns of user data (depending on the permissions required)..

The app is compatible from version 1.5 of Android. Any supperior OS version will support it.

Its weight is very light, less than a megabyte is sufficient to store and operate.

Its number of downloads in the Android Market (Google Play) makes it an extremely popular application and rightly so. More than a million users are using it on mobile or on touch pad.

Positive review Excellent app by anonym
Accurate & easy to use. Easier to access than the calculators in Epocrates or Medscape. Hosindoc 5/5
Positive review Works perfectly by anonym
Does exactly what it claims. Anyone slating this clearly doesn't understand what BMI is. Yeah it's not that good an indication of fitness (being based solely on weight and height) as it will show a lot of sportsman as overweight, but that's the fault of the equation, not the dev. For an 'average joe' it will be pretty accurate. 5/5
Positive review by anonym
I use this program in my medical work. I have had no rounding errors and can calculate with only a few taps. Low memory usage. 5/5
Positive review Does what it says by anonym
Good app. Dev has a right to be mad about sum comments. Maybe this should be marketed as an IQ app. LOL 5/5
Positive review by anonym
Very accurate. Planning to undergo weight related surgery. Showed exactly to decimal of what my doc said. 4/5
Positive review by anonym
I'm glad the Army doesn't say I'm overweight. I've still got about 5 pounds that I could gain. They must use a different standard. Great app! 5/5
Positive review Works great if you can read by anonym
I downloaded this after reading about your great description on Phandroid. I also bought the paid ver to show my support, keep up the great work! 5/5
Positive review I feel for you by anonym
This app can not be any more simple to use. As a dev myself, I feel for this dev and the stupid comments and bad ratings he gets. 5/5
Positive review Does what it says. by anonym
Learn to read. BMI is calculated properly, so the app does what it says. It's not dev's fault that you are not able to convert units... 5/5
Positive review Have to add my 2 cents just because of the description. by anonym
5 stars simply for the description! People need to learn to read. 5/5
Positive review by anonym
Works great. I hope you make a similar tool for kids too. Lmao@ the developer commentary though! 5/5
Positive review Thanks by anonym
Easy bmi calculator unless you have the IQ of an infant. If so, I suggest the app that involves you playing frogger on the freeway. 5/5
Positive review by anonym
This app is as simple as it gets. I'm giving a 5 Star rating for this developer's balls to the wall attitude! Two thumbs way up! 5/5
Positive review by anonym
Please people learn metric system before abusing the app. works great and accurate. no problem till now. 5/5
Positive review Giving 5 stars just to balance the 1-star ratings by anonym
Everyone who cannot read a few words and thus gives a poor rating should die in a fire. 5/5
Positive review by anonym
Works exactly as described, i feel for the dev. Just think over half a million new Android devices a day, there's going to be a good number of idiots 5/5
Positive review Works perfectly by anonym
As long as you bother to read the (extremely simple) instructions! Maybe the developer could avoid the negative thickies by presenting some first-time setup screens on first use? And/or some sanity range-checking on input values? Just a suggestion, it works fine for me as it is. 5/5
Positive review LMAO! by anonym
Dumbas$$es that dwnld just to leave a neg remark are bigger idiots then the ones too dumb to use it! This app works! 5stars for a simple, working app & for saying what u think about idiot complainers! :-D 5/5
Positive review by anonym
Does exactly what it states and well at that. If you arent very bright then get another app, the app isn't wrong, you just can't use it. 5/5
Negative review Flame war? by anonym
Why is there a flame war going on in the developer description? a one sided flame war at that. Very unprofessional, makes me not want to download. Still I tried it, it's ok. I promptly uninstalled though. 2/5
Positive review Woytek, You are awesome. by anonym
I too downloaded this app to demonstrate my support for a fellow developer that has gotten fed up with dumb users immediately giving horrible reviews rather than taking the time so send a quick email to the dev asking what is going wrong. Of course they can be bothered to click a simple email link, they just have to ruin a struggling developers livelihood. Hope fully Google will take notice and do something to reform the reviewing process - maybe allowing the developer to respond directly to bad reviews. 5/5
Positive review Does exactly what it says - great developer by anonym
The app does just what it's supposed to and is easy to use. Personally I'm frustrated by the BMI in general because for my height I'd actually be underweight if I ever got into the "Normal Range" but the BMI doesn't pretend to be accurate for all body types or really be anything but the most basic measuring scale. Love that the developer of this app is taking crappy app reviewers/commenters to task. 5/5
Negative review Pathetic!!!! Boycott Developer! by anonym
This app is as pathetic as it's developer. You will never get an accurate BMI based off of inputting height and weight. Though, more importantly, I would never support a developer that 'flames' their own users in the description. Shame there isn't a 'Report to Google' button. 1/5
Positive review Good work sir by anonym
I must admire a dev who is willing to go off the wall at stupid! The application works as expected 5/5
Positive review Does what it says - interface could be improved by anonym
5*s to balance out the idiots (dev - u r my hero lol) but I think 4 stars would be pretty realistic for this app. While I agree that people should think about what they're doing before they downrate, a few tweaks to the app would probably help the mentally underwhelming along. For example, it might be good to restate the details as a result, like "You Entered 200 lbs as your weight and 6 feet 2 inches as your height." A toggle on the main screen for Imperial <-> Metric might also help. Overall a good 1. 4/5
Positive review works perfectly (although not for idiots) by anonym
I know that I'm pretty normal (vegetarian, small frame, etc.) but this app ensured me of that (my score was around 21). I have to admit though, I only downloaded the app for the description. It's brilliant! I really don't know how we're living in the world with so many idiots in it. And to think we might have to interact with them... 5/5
Positive review Great app that does what it says by anonym
Dev is hilarious. I hate idiotic comments in the Market. I tip my hat to you for not taking it any longer. Good luck. 5/5
Neutral review Update it for stupid users by anonym
If someone will enter 1.75, it is obvious that the intention was 1.75 meters. So you can assume 175 cm and start calculating. If the person really has 1.75 cm height, the BMI is not his/her main problem ;) Example for people using stones, inches, lb and other non-standard units: If you enter 6.2, obviously these won't be inches, but feet. So @Woytec, update this application to cope with stupid users. This will help them remain stupid but also happy ;) 3/5
Positive review Great app, great rant! by anonym
5 stars for both! This is probably in the comments, and partly ranted about already :), but to make it perfect, would be nice to have separate boxes for feet and inches, and not have to go through the menu to switch between metric and imperial. PS total sympathy for your BMI rant because I have bodybuilder types feeling they need to tell me how useless they think BMI is every effing week! 5/5
Positive review Awesome by anonym
I installed this app to comment on how awesome the dev is, great app and good job sticking it to the idiots. Oh and my bmi dropped 5 points from the last time I checked, I dont think the app did anything about it could have been the stomach worms I got from eating a space egg salad. App works perfectly thanks 5/5
Positive review Best app description ever by anonym
Good simple app does what it's supposed to do quickly, neatly, with a minimum of fuss. Love the developer's description so much. 5/5
Positive review Awesome. by anonym
So.. downloading just to rate something one star is supposed to "teach a lesson" to a frustrated dev? People need to get off of their self- important, egotistical high horses and just like the app for what it is. A BMI calculator for the literate. The app works as intended. Anyone looking into BMI should know that there are variables and not to expect a 100% accurate measurement of physiologic status from their cellphone. Need a CBC while you're at it? How about a free physical? 5/5
Positive review Nice App, Does What It Claims by anonym
Installed it just to leave a comment. Nice app for finding BMI, and because I can read I had no problems understanding 12 IN = 1 FT, BMI is not accurate for Fat/Muscle Ratio below 10% (ie athletic), and that I like Doritos and am slightly over weight according this measurement. I'm not freaking out like someone with poor self image problems. 5/5
Negative review by anonym
Not even close. Did it all correctly. Normal mother of 5, dont work out. Im 5' 2" and weigh 120 lbs. I am not moderately obese. Uninstalled. 2/5
Positive review Excellent small ad-free app by anonym
This is a nice small app that tells you your bmi for an average adult. Unlike many free small apps it doesn't have ads, so great if using it abroad. I knew about BMI when I installed it (I was starting out on weight loss my BMI was 39.8), it is an aid and people should read up more on it and other measurements to use (my BMI is now 27). This app does what it says on the tin, it's small, free, and ad-free. What more do people want! 5/5
Positive review Great app that works as designed by anonym
I'm not sure how many more morons this planet can support, but it seems a good amount of them have commented previous to my review. First of all, kudos to the dev for calling idiots out as idiots. It's about time someone said EXACTLY what's on their mind. For those of you that just can't grasp simple things like changing units/measurement on an app but blame the dev because you're a complete mental midget, please do us all a favor and go the way of the Dodo. 4/5
Negative review by anonym
I put the height and weight in for my TWIG of a boyfriend, and it says he is overweight. He is soo not overweight. Hes a TWIGG nojoke. 1/5
Positive review by anonym
Simple, straight to the point, love it. Sorry people's stupidity are lessening the worth of your app 5/5
Positive review by anonym
Didn't really want a bmi calc. I downloaded to help offset the retards bringing down your rating because they don't understand unit conversion. 5/5
Positive review Just for the description by anonym
I downloaded this just because I loved the description. After having used the app, I can say it might have been nice to input height the way it is printed on my drivers license. However basic math isn't beyond me. Anyone that wants it to take into consideration Race, Age, Gender and etc doesn't seem to understand that won't change the BMI score. Wether you are overweight or not is determined by those charts. If you have a real interest in your weight and health you should know what a healthy BMI is. 4/5
