Nokia Health Mate for Android
I like that I can see my steps, sleep, and activity. The little inspirations are nice as well. What I dont like is that it takes forever to sync. I also would like a way to edit my stride. Update: The new app is nice and works a little better than the old one. My main problems are that I still can not edit my stride which is a feature I have been waiting for and that was promised. Second I would like to be able to edit my sleep data, sometimes the values that the app records via my device are incorrect. When these issues are addressed then it will be a better app and my rating may change. November 23, 2017: Still waiting on the ability to edit stride and sleep. I would also like to br able to see my badges in feet instead of kilometers or meters.
Weight tracker is too zoomed out. I want to lose 1/2 stone. So why does it only show me 14, 12, 10 and 8 stone markers? I only want ounces between 12 and 11. Bad nokia for ruining an ok app. Recommended feature: start, 25%, 50%, 75%, 100% dotted lines. I'd rather set smaller monthly target than a large distant and unachievable target
Occasional issues with steel HR sessions not syncing, but otherwise working well. In-app GPS tracking for walks, runs etc would be ideal. Also wondering if the promised notifications for other apps will ever show up!
I like the heart beat measure technology in this app! The only problem is the step tracking is a little not accurate...I accidentally shake my phone and it counts more few step even I am standing...Please take a look at this problems if can...
My Wi-Fi scales no longer sync since Nokia took it over. The main reason for buying the scales was for its Wi-Fi syncing capability. I now have basic scales. Interface/dashboard is awful. Looks like it was designed by a child. As appealing as a website designed using Frontpage
Huge step backwards from the Withings app. Difficult to navigate, difficult to read, less info on the screen... :( Can I have my Withings app back please? This should NOT have been released as an update. As a separate App it would have been fine.
I know you recently rolled out an update allowing us to view our steps on a monthly view. That's great. But can you do the same for the sleep tracker? Consistency is nice. P.S. thank you for your support and your constant striving for improvement!!! ????????
This app seems to have settled down now since my first review. Seems to have stopped too. I am now going it will sync with total fitness heath club app. TF seems to suggest it will. Ive been really struggling with the updates from the format to the new fonts. Now to top it all the watch has just stopped connecting to the app and although I thought it might be the battery I haven't had any notification of this as is promised. So now I have no data and the wrong time. I loved my withings steel but Nokia seem to have spoiled it ????.
I'm appalled that this app is using push notifications to market and advertise other products or services. I received two notifications today that were advertising black Friday sales. That is not okay. So despite the notifications that I do appreciate, I have disabled push notifications and will consider uninstalling. I do not remember receiving such notifications before Nokia took over.
The Withings sleep system ("most complete" health companion) is no longer supported since Nokia took over. No support for Aura in terms of replacement or additional sleep sensors. Aura and its accessories are no longer for sale. Mine is completely broken, there is no way to repair. I was just about to purchase a second sensor anyway. Customer support answered they hope Aura will soon be available for sale, which is just the opposite of what they wrote below. Shame...
The whole family love using Nokia Health Mate. We use the scales everyday and i get to see all the families health data. The Thermo has been just incfedable when our 2 kids have been poorly and being able to show our doctors all the readings and medicines we have given blows away the doctors. I have personal just invested in the limited edition Nokia steel which has the elegance of a high end watch but combines the sleep tracking and steps. Love the whole nokia suite of products and apps. Keep them coming please
Doesn't link with Google fit properly, doesn't link with myfitnesspal properly. App is really buggy, needs fixing quickly. This was previously a really good app when it was withing several. Nokia have taken over and removed functionality
Bumped up to two stars because they finally fixed the vertical axis issue after about 5 weeks since they first broke it. ------ Can't believe they haven't released a patch for the vertical axes error in lbs yet. Does not give me any faith in Nokia's ability to manage a total health solution and device ecosystem. Overall decline in quality after the acquisition of Withings by Nokia. Dropping this a star because of the useless responses from customer support. The issue is clearly someone adding an erroneous multiplication of kg to lbs when it's already in lbs. They're accidentally multiplying by 2.2 on the graph. This SHOULD NOT take over a week to fix.
Terrible app. Causes my steel HR smartwatch to not show emails or texts using Gmail and Hangouts apps. Only calendar and phone call notifications seem to be working.
The app is great but customer support for my Steel HR watch is out of this world. I had fogging issues and they are sending me a new model free plus they sent me a free smart scale as well. I have never seen support like this ever.
I was pretty frustrated when the Nokia version replaced the Withings version of the app. I preferred the older version. However as new updates are coming along, I'm happy to see Nokia is genuinely listening to user feedback. I'm optimistic this app will get even better.
Since yesterday, the newest update, doesn't sync with Samsung Health generating it useless. I have the watch but can't wear it all day so I'm "losing" around 12k steps a day. On top of that lost sync history with myfitnesspal and sync is inconsistent.
Cannot sync with my Activite Pop after the new update after successfully and easily syncing for a year and a half. Gets stuck on "turning Bluetooth on" or if I come into the app with Bluetooth already on nothing happens at all and it still prompts me to turn Bluetooth on. Help!
I like this app, I wish it had a way to add notes though, or ideally tags. I would love to be able to include something like "exams" to look at how my sleep is effected during exam week. It would help me use my sleep data better if I could look at how various life changes effect my sleep or rate of exercise.
Its a well designed app that is unfortunately marred by extremely annoying ads for Nokia products which are served up as toast notifications. I want notifications alerting me about my sleep and fitness, not ads. I bought a watch, not a subscription to Nokia ads.
Cannot easily find how to turn off notifications in Settings (or anywhere). Wakes me up in the middle of the night with BS marketing messages I don't want or need.
Haven't tested much, as I'm only using it for seeing history of my weight from an iot scale. The app have an nice graph with estimated weight based on a few measurements.
Lost the pulse wave velocity normal, optimal ranges on the graph! I wish I could get fitbit steps on Withings app and Withings scale data on fitbit app. I only use because I have the Withings body cardio scale which I love for the pulse wave velocity data.
It has been the best mate I 've had even better than a gym instructor. Lost weight as well as staying healthy. Great app.
I have Withings watch and scales now of course Nokia! The app seamlessly records my daily data which is easily accessible in a single click. Totally motivational to be able to click between week month year graphs of weight. Since 2016 I have lost about 3 stone. Thank you Withings and Nokia. A don't be without tool! ????
Got updated late night. Step tracking becomes faulty. Till yesterday the distance which counts as 2064 steps, today It's counts merely 689. Further badges related to steps taken are not shown in full. Previous history recorded in another handset, I.e. iphone is not synchronized. Hope the problems sort out at an earliest. Provision to roll back should be made in order to cope up such situations.
1 star as I use it with the HR watch which is not waterproof as advertised. 2 have failed so far and now waiting for no.3 for 12 weeks.
So I installed it to change the scale wifi password, I had to give location permission to set the wifi password, really?! is this absolutely necessary? Please do explain why. Also after the setup I have to uninstall it, a 130Mb of ram running service on my phone 24/7 just to setup the scale is not my cup of tea...
Step tracking (measure) information are not accurate and heat rate technology is supper it's working fine I checked with Samsung also.
Sleep is way off. It has me getting up at 3:00 am every day! Which gives me only 3 or 4 hours sleep per night. If it's not going to be accurate, I might as well stop wearing it. Very frustrating.
Drains my battery due to high frequent location requests. According to the Android OS itself. Edit/ I have sent a customer inquiry, hopefully it will resolve my issue.
Still a few bugs to work out but overall a great app and ecosystem for your Health way better then the competitors I had used.. won't mention them by name.
The interaction with the Aura is extremely buggy - its temperamental to connect and then constantly gets out of sync, duplicates alarms, etc.
The app keeps getting better with every update. I have the full range of devices and all the information collected can be managed and seen in clear and informative lists and graphics. I just wish it was possible to turn off the heart rate reading from the scale without losing the pulse wave velocity. As I have the BP device I already get a more accurate HR measurement and could do without the duplication.
When can we expect two or more trackers to be connected to the same account?
The app and the web site complement the Nokia Health products. I buy them for the automatic tracking, no need to log data manually every day. For me this is one of the killer features.
Good app use it to track steps for my Vitality Insurance. works better than Moves app and it get rewarded. Counts indoor steps etc.. only once Moves app showed more steps than Nokia Withings and I then add the workout manually .
Great app to follow your daily steps, weight and more. Clear user interface and beautiful design. Going to get my Nokia watch next and then I can sync it with the app!
It's a great app with an elegant look and feel. It integrates all the information from Google fit and Nokia devices in a smooth package giving all the information you need. The companion site is also great for a desktop experience

I used to love it and hope I can change my rating but it just doesn't want to sync now and I need to do it manually which is a shame because the whole point of the device is to motivate you to be more fit. And it it doesn't recognise that... Why use it? I hope this is like a well-known bug that can be fixed but I feel like if it's an issue for a galaxy s7 on Android N then that's not good enough...
