About BMI Calculator (free)

I'm so bored with persons like Dora and other BENETTA. Why are you so STUPID ?!
CHANGE ****THE UNITS**** and USE ****INCHES**** NOT FEET !

- Dora, 5'2 = 62 inches, and 62 inches with 120lbs = 21.94 BMI !!!
- Charles and Erik, you are not obese, just stupid.
- Yes Charles, if you put 6 FEET in the INCHES text field and 175 lbs, yes the calculation can't be right. 6 foot = 72 inches with 175lbs = 23.73 BMI !!!
My application can not guess that you have not learned to read
- Tom, 25.38, OMG, yes, more than 25 your are overweight, BUT if you exceeded by only 0.38, or 1, seriously! think! A lipo between your ears to get to 25? It's on the house!
- tyler, are you kidding ? BMI is ONLY calculated with Height and Weight (see wikipedia).

IT'S WRITTEN
***Weight/lbs*** | ***Tall/inches*** IF you choose IMPERIAL UNITS (menu button) OR
***Weight/kg*** | ***Tall/cm*** IF you choose METRIC UNITS (menu button)

/! I want to thank those who took the time to understand this simple app. <3 all ;) (and your comments)
Spelling errors in my description? Certainly, but English is not my native language ;)
/!

@Matthew, you're absolutely right, I try to find time to make this small change but it is not easy. Change the unit without going through the menu and allow to set "feet & inches" is the ultimate goal to eliminate all problems. I'm totally zen ;)

This app is a "Body Mass Index Calculator".

BMI cannot be accurate for "athletes" or "muscular persons" ! It's written bellow, in the description of this app ! >>> "The result is valid for "normal" children/adults/m/f (but not for the muscular persons or "athletes"). The BMI formula is UNIQUE, for everybody.

Why there is no GENDER and AGE ?! Again, it's written at the end of the description.
**** The only thing that differs between adults and children is the "reading table". I give you a "general reading table" for ADULTS ONLY (Health Organizations did this, not me) ! The reading tables may differ between country or population (but really not so much... even if they exists). There is a more precise reading table for children 5/19 years made by WHO (World Health Organization : www.who.int). The general reading table is just an INDICATION. If you want some "real" information about your condition, ask your doctor ***

My current BMI is 24.81, 1kg more and OMAGAD I'm in "overweight". And what ? I lift some weights, I run, I'm relatively muscled so there is nonsense to calculate my BMI. If you do sport, if you are in god shape, why do you want criticize a tool who isn't made for you ?

If you start doing some sport, you can use this application to calculate your "first" BMI. When you begin to lose fat and gain muscle, you (maybe) will arrive in the "normal" zone. From there, if you continue to lose fat without gaining too much muscle, you can still calculate your BMI, the reading table will remain accurate for you. By cons, if you keep gaining muscle (AND/OR losing fat), from a certain point, calculate your BMI has absolutely no sense.

Features:
* Units: metric(cm - kg)/imperial(lbs - inches) (Use the menu button for changing that)
* Languages: English, Italian, French, Spanish, German, Croatian, Korean
* Long click on the result's zone to reset

FOR CHANGING UNITS, USE THE MENU BUTTON!
---
THE PROVIDED READING TABLE IS A "GENERAL" READING TABLE.

HOWEVER, IT APPLIES WITHOUT DISTINCTION TO (ADULTS) - MEN AND WOMEN -. YOU'RE NOT NECESSARILY IN OVERWEIGHT IF YOU EXCEED THE AVERAGE HIGH MORE THAN 0.1.
SO BEFORE YOU SAY "NOT ENOUGH FOR PRECISION" THINK ABOUT THAT.
HOWEVER IF YOU EXCEED 1 OR MORE OF THE "NORMAL" SLICE, THE READING TABLE WILL APPLY REGARDLESS OF ITS ACCURACY.

BMI IS A SIMPLE "NUMBER". IT IS USED WITH OTHER TOOLS FOR SHAPING A PROFILE OF HEALTH.
Again, THIS APPLICATION IS A SIMPLE CALCULATOR. ONLY A DOCTOR WITH YOUR HISTORY OF HEALTH, YOUR BMI, ETC. CAN YOU GIVE MORE INFO ABOUT YOUR HEALTH/OVERWEIGHT/ETC accurately.

M70%
by M####:

Very bad! Said I was obese... When done properly im almost underweight... Calculation for accurate bmi is: (height(m) x height(m)) divided by weight.

Z70%
by Z####:

I downloaded only to post this review. I am not going to use as developer is rude and should really think be he writes in the description of app.

B70%
by B####:

You rock with your rant!! The app works well, thanks for putting ignorance in its place! Thumbs up! More Devs should follow your example!

Z70%
by Z####:

Dumb people should not be allowed within 6 feet (or is that inches) of a smartphone. I deal with idiot users and their "reviews" daily.

Z70%
by Z####:

I downloaded this, not bc i needed my BMI, that i already knew, but loved the dev's comments! & it does works PERFECT too! (For those w a brain..lol)

Z70%
by Z####:

The application itself is not bad. However, the developer is completely unprofessional. If you act like a mature adult, I may change my rating.

Z70%
by Z####:

I installed this app just to say "right on, dev!" Don't give a one-star review just because you're too ignorant to use the app properly.

Z70%
by Z####:

Anyone complaining about no age or gender is an idiot. BMI is one number for everyone: kg/m^2. That's it. Age and gender do NOT effect it at all.

Y70%
by Y####:

Best app description ever! I am sick of us developers have to program so that stupid people who don't want or can't read instructions are able to use

Z70%
by Z####:

It does what its supposed to do, its about as acurate as what the military uses for pfa... These are never perfect and never will be. If you want 100% acurate go to a doctor and request it.

U70%
by U####:

Props to someone finally telling the idiots of this world the truth. This app works fine as many have proved, people just need to stop being retards.

C70%
by C####:

Was accurate for me. And btw idiots muscle weighs more than fat so u r gonna have a heavier weight. U need an actual bmi tool to get urs.

Z70%
by Z####:

I know how you feel. I'm not a dev, but yup...a lot of people are idiots! Remember...Smartphones make Dumb people Dumber! Muahahahahaha!

Z70%
by Z####:

Good app overall, very straightforward. I don't understand why those idiotic comments are there. Also, no landscape view for phones with sliding keyboards. I have to rotate my head to read.

F70%
by F####:

This app is deal. Told me im underweight. Im most definitely not.

Z70%
by Z####:

Works flawlessly with metric & English units. Cretins have been cloning. "Metric. 1 star." Retards get no compassion. Read and don't breed.

D70%
by D####:

And the app works great too. the people that have problems with it are the ones warning labels were designed for, I think...

F70%
by F####:

The people who complain are stupid because they clearly don't know how to use this. Mine was accurate, as always

C70%
by C####:

There wasan article about your app and your rant on phandroid. Your app works fine.... people are just too stupid.. lol. good job

Z70%
by Z####:

The rant is immature and makes you look like a total dick. Its supposed to be a description of the app, not a platform to retaliate against bad review

Z70%
by Z####:

And by S.I. I mean Stupidity Index calculator. People are too stupid to understand how a simple app works. Thanks for telling it like it is.

T70%
by T####:

This does exactly what I want it for! It calculates the BMI, and it explains, which category the resulting BMI falls into. The results are accurate and correct, which puts this app clearly above average. Up to now I've had to choose between using bulky apps with loads of useless extra features, or calculating the BMI with a normal calculator. This app is nice, small and simple!

K70%
by K####:

Good simple app does what it's supposed to do quickly, neatly, with a minimum of fuss. Love the developer's description so much.

K70%
by K####:

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.

K70%
by K####:

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

K70%
by K####:

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.

O70%
by O####:

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

K70%
by K####:

Please people learn metric system before abusing the app. works great and accurate. no problem till now.

C70%
by C####:

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!

Y70%
by Y####:

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.

K70%
by K####:

Works great. I hope you make a similar tool for kids too. Lmao@ the developer commentary though!

Z70%
by Z####:

5 stars simply for the description! People need to learn to read.

Y70%
by Y####:

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...

R70%
by R####:

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.

K70%
by K####:

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!

O70%
by O####:

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!

K70%
by K####:

Very accurate. Planning to undergo weight related surgery. Showed exactly to decimal of what my doc said.

K70%
by K####:

Good app. Dev has a right to be mad about sum comments. Maybe this should be marketed as an IQ app. LOL

P70%
by P####:

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.

S70%
by S####:

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.
