According to our personal scale expert
Need a scale that completely analyzes your body? The Garmin Index Smart Scale is a clever personal scale, which takes care of all the brainwork for you. You can immediately see your BMI, body fat percentage, body water percentage, muscle mass, and bone mass on the display and the data are automatically sent to the Garmin Connect app via WiFi. You can subsequently review all the information presented in graphs on your smartphone, set a target weight, and link your account to an activity tracker, such as the Vivosmart HR. On top of that, your Smart Scale Index has no problem identifying specific users as soon as they step onto it. You can create no less than 16 different profiles. A convenient first step to a healthier lifestyle!
Note: using a scale with body analysis may lead to health risks for certain people such as pregnant women, children, or people that use medical electronic devices. Before use, check the manual for the safety measures and to see whether the scale is suitable for you.Body analysis | ||

Since I already have an account on Garmin, setting up the scale is child's play. If you do not want to create an account on Garmin, the scale can also be used, but your data will not be stored on the internet and only your current weight will be displayed. After weighing, all parameters are immediately forwarded to your profile. Very accurate and fast weighing. In the beginning I had a problem with the scale because the device recognized someone else from my side (unregistered user) as myself, so that my own weighings no longer appeared on my user profile. Sent an email to the Garmin support service and the next day they were already well helped by these people. The person who incorrectly takes over your profile should tap the display himself and move on to the next user, or guest user. Perhaps this should have been stated more clearly in the manual. I only encountered this problem once in the initial period. For the rest, the device is not cheap, but it is highly recommended if you want an exact weighing with all secondary weighing such as BMI, fat percentage, muscle mass, etc... Especially if you are active in sports and already have a Garmin account, it is useful because you training data and now your fitness data will also be on the same site.

Nice scale with many options. Setting up Wifi very difficult. When the Wifi connection finally worked, the data was exchanged well and quickly with Garmin Connect. Unfortunately, the scale lost its connection to WiFi the next day. Reset again but unfortunately the next day the connection was gone. I try some WiFi settings but it doesn't work then it goes back because every time setting is much too laborious.

For several weeks now, my Index scale no longer registers measured values in GarminConnect. The connection to my WiFi is fine. After some research I come to the conclusion that the NTP server (clock.garmin.com) that the scale uses is not or almost never reachable. From the MANY posts on the Garmin forum I see that I am not the only one with this problem and that this problem has been going on for years. Garmin refuses to solve this and responds that the scale can be exchanged (which does not solve the problem of course). It is of course ridiculous that I pay €135 for a scale and then have to manually enter the readings into GarminConnect. A complete waste of money in my opinion!
