Curated, not stocked.
We recommend tools that give you data you can act on. The Body Smart tracks body composition metrics — not just weight — which is what our clinicians actually look at when assessing progress. Withings has a strong record of applying medically recognised measurement methods to home hardware, and the longitudinal data the app produces is genuinely useful in a clinical conversation. It earns its place because it shifts the focus from the number on the scale to what that number is made of.
About this product
Body Smart - Black
The Withings Body Smart is a Wi-Fi connected smart scale that goes beyond simple weight measurement to deliver a fuller picture of body composition. It measures metrics including body fat percentage, muscle mass, bone mass, and visceral fat — data points that matter far more than weight alone when you are tracking the effect of training, nutrition, or a lifestyle change. Readings sync automatically to the Withings Health Mate app, where trends are visualised over time so you can see direction of travel, not just today's number.
It suits anyone who wants to move from guessing to measuring: athletes monitoring body composition across a training block, individuals managing weight under clinical guidance, or anyone who wants a reliable baseline before starting a new programme. The scale sits cleanly in a daily routine — a quick morning reading, fully passive once set up.
What earns the Body Smart credibility is Withings' track record in consumer-grade health monitoring. Their devices are used alongside clinical tools in research settings, and the brand applies bioelectrical impedance analysis — a method also used in medical-grade body composition assessments — to a home-use format. It will not replace a DEXA scan, but for daily trend data it is a serious, consistent tool. The black finish is discreet and the hardware is built to last. For anyone who already owns or plans to use other Withings devices, the ecosystem integration is an added practical benefit.

How to use
Step on the scale first thing in the morning, before eating or drinking, for the most consistent readings. Ensure your feet are clean and dry to optimise the bioelectrical impedance measurement. Sync to the Health Mate app to review trends over time rather than reacting to individual daily readings.

Common questions
Frequently asked
What body composition metrics does the Body Smart measure?
The scale measures body fat percentage, muscle mass, bone mass, and visceral fat, alongside total body weight. These metrics are derived using bioelectrical impedance analysis, which passes a small electrical current through the body to estimate tissue composition.
How accurate is bioelectrical impedance analysis compared to clinical methods?
Bioelectrical impedance is a well-established method used in clinical and research settings, though it is not as precise as DEXA scanning. For home use, its value lies in consistency over time — tracking directional change across weeks and months — rather than in any single absolute reading.
Does the scale require a subscription to access the data?
The scale syncs to the Withings Health Mate app. Check the current app terms directly with Withings, as feature access and subscription tiers may change. The core tracking functionality has historically been available without an ongoing fee.
Who might not get reliable readings from this scale?
Bioelectrical impedance can give less consistent results for people who are pregnant, have a pacemaker or other implanted electronic device, or who have very high or very low levels of body fat. If any of these apply, consult your clinician before use.
How do I get the most consistent results day to day?
Weigh yourself at the same time each day — ideally first thing in the morning, before eating or drinking, and after using the bathroom. Hydration levels affect impedance readings, so keeping conditions as similar as possible between measurements improves reliability.
