EDIT: As one reader pointed out, the company responsible for developing and maintaining the MYBIODY Balance application is currently in compulsory liquidation. The product is therefore no longer usable until a new application is developed. The company did not respond to our requests.

Unboxing by MYBIODY

MYBIODY has a simple and effective packaging which showcases the device and the brand well. The kit consists ofapparatus, d'a USB cable, ofa spray bottle and a little explanatory booklet which returns to the online page to register.

The explanatory booklet covers all the steps and even the main "bugs" that the user may encounter. It’s very convenient and makes it much easier to use the device and navigate the app.

As a whole, the packaging is quite classic but effective, everything is included in it to make the best use of MYBIODY.

MYBIODY Design & Ergonomics

The MYBIODY design and color are modern and mixed. The device has very graphic curves and should appeal to the greatest number.

The top of the purple device, slice with the white bottom, practical to know the direction at first glance … On the back, there are two V-shaped sensors, which lock onto the ankle, a side button also equipped with a sensor and a last sensor at the front on the underside of the device.

These are arranged in such a way that the user holds the device in a certain position to take his measurements.

The buttons and electrodes are easily accessible and well positioned. The device is one ideal size for handling and use. It seems suitable for all users and can be stored easily.

Not much to complain about: we would just appreciate a small fabric pouch for storage and transport once the device is unpacked, as well as a scale. Note, however, that the brand currently offers a scale on its website.

Use and handling of MYBIODY

MYBIODY allows you to carry out your body check-up yourself. By sending low intensity, painless beams in your body, he manages to measure different elements of your body : muscle mass, fat mass, bone mass and hydration rate.

Getting started with the device

The explanatory booklet easily guides me to the first stage of use: create my account and register my device online. To create an account, just enter some personal data (date of birth, gender, height, weight, level of physical activity and bra cap for girls) so that the measurements can be analyzed in depending on your age, your physique, your activity.

Once the account is configured, the site offers to download theassociated application for Android or iOS, another good point for the brand. From this application, you must pair your MYBIODY device to be able to take the first measurement.

Before going directly to hostilities, it is necessary to pay attention to a few constraints so that the measures taken are as exact as possible. Thus, the leaflet explains that it is advisable to take the measures at alarm clock, after taking a shower and without consuming food or alcohol.

First measurement

Unfortunately, we cannot say that the first use is very intuitive. We do not know how to hold the device or how to position it on his ankle, so we must rely on the diagram of the leaflet. After a little training, we quickly get the hang of it for the next measurements.

When the button is pressed, several different sounds are emitted to indicate to the user if he holds the MYBIODY the right way. A low tone indicates that the measurement was not done correctly and a high pitched tone indicates that the measurement was successful.

Then in practice, it's pretty simple: you have to humidify the various sensors (four in total) from the device, using the spray supplied. Take the object in your right hand, the thumb should be on the side sensor-button and the rest of your fingers on the back. Then place the two V-shaped sensors under the ankle bone, just above the malleolus. Press the side button and wait for the small high-pitched sound which indicates that the measurement is made.

Once the operation has been repeated several times, the user gets used to the position he must adopt. The device may therefore seem a bit complicated at first, but thanks to the explanations, everyone can learn to use it without difficulty.

Measuring a guest

It is also possible to take andsave a guest's measurements. Just save a new profile and take the measurement. The application then sends a complete report of the measurement, giving advice to remedy certain health problems which have been detected by MYBIODY.

Mobile app & MYBIODY Board

The MYBIODY app is Free and available for devices Android and iOS. The smart health connected health sensor, MYBIODY can also communicate in Bluetooth.

Once the measurement has been taken, the device must be synchronized with its device via the application. It is very easy to synchronize your own measurement or that of a third party under the name "guest measurement". Synchronization is immediate and you can access the main measures immediately.

The smartphone and tablet app gives you general visibility of your balance sheet : the analysis in% of your weight, the muscle mass rate, the fat mass rate, the hydration rate, your fitness index and an analysis that explains these results and gives you some improvement keys.

It is also possible to follow changes or improvements directly from the application, for this, regular measurements are essential.

The app itself is pretty simple, but well constructed and clear. Once the first Review measurement is completed, we know better what the device requires. We could simply note the absence of a coach interface to apply the advice of the analysis. It's a shame because it would allow the smart health connected device to go further, and stand out from the competition …

MYBIODY facing the competition: the question of a reader

Following many questions and in particular that posed by Paul D.: “What does MYBIODY Balance actually do compared to a scale like Ozeri Touch (only 40 €) Who measures your weight, the amount of fat, water, muscle and bone? ”, here is the answer we can give you:

The classic impedance scales only measure the lower body. Indeed, the current always taking the shortest path, it stops at the waist and the rest is estimated not taking into account the morphology and the peculiarities of the person. It is said that the measure is “foot-to-foot”. MYBIODY, thanks to its atypical shape, allows a so-called “foot-hand” measurement which forces the currents to flow throughwhole body.

The scales are single frequency. MYBIODY is multi-frequency : several currents of different powers which guarantee the accuracy of the measurement. Thanks to this, MBIODY would allow a much more reliable calculation of the water contained in the body.

Also, MYBIODY allows the user to discover more than just percentages. The user can, for example, consult the number of kilos of excess or deficit fat mass and his personal situation compared to a healthy person of his age and sex, a real body balance.

Finally, MYBIODY provides its users with a dashboard which seems to us, after a complete Review, didactic, design, ergonomic and fun on the part its “smart health connected” function. The user can thus consult the history of his measurements, set goals and observe his progress.
