Description:
A simple and intuitive application to calculate body mass index and estimate body fat percentage. Enjoy! *** 8/17/08 - UPDATE *** For everyone that asked for metric support, BMI categories, and better scroll wheels we are releasing 2Fat + with these features and more. Please check out 2Fat + and keep the comments and constructive criticism coming. Thanks for your support! ************************ In response to the comments concerning the accuracy of the Body Fat Percentage, 2Fat provides an estimate with a commonly used formula. There are several other ways to estimate body fat percentage using infra-red light, dual energy X-ray absorptiometry, bioelectrical impedance analysis, or anthropometric methods. While our method will not be perfect for everyone, it provides a good estimate without expensive equipment.


Reviews:
Outstanding Application!!!  By: Bob Phinkle - Feb 22, 2009 Version: 2.0 This app is great and you can't beat the price. Yes there are a few improvements that I could see would be really useful like metric support and less scrolling maybe, but overall best BMI app out there. And for all the people out there that say this application doesn't work, why don't you think before you speak. Try entering in the numbers into the wikipedia formulas for each calculation.... they are accurate. In addition every medical professional that has reviewed this app says that the calcs are correct and accurate. Ignore the haters.
Good Quick App  By: Astom - Aug 6, 2008 Version: 2.0 This app is really good for what it is trying to do. It allows for a quick reference, it isn't meant to be 100% accurate, just a close reference. Some of the people reviewing are showing their ignorance with their reviews. The military does use a system of measurements (as one reviewer mentions), but it isn't 100% either and can be way off in some cases. Electrical resistance (like the body fat scales and handheld devices) are pretty good, but are only as accurate as the information you put into them. Now if anyone comes up with an iPhone app that is 100% at giving your body fat and BMI, they might win a Nobel Prize. Since they would have figured out how to submerge a person in a pool and see how much water they displaced (a VERY accurate way of measuring body fat when done right).
Very Nice App...needs a little refining  By: juanggonzo - Aug 16, 2008 Version: 2.0 App is very easy to use. Both I & my trainer liked it very much. I think the weight should be 3 wheels instead of 1 as stated by another reviewer. If they are going to keep it at 1, which I would discourage, then how about accomodating us BIG boys. Not everyone is under 350 pounds and some of us that are heavier are interested in health and nutrition too. The above limitation are the only reason I didn't give it a 5 star rating.
Useful BMI calculator  By: TosaDeac - Aug 5, 2008 Version: 2.0 As a pediatrician, I have been waiting for someone to put a BMI calculator program on the App Store and was glad to see this one. It works pretty well for doing that simple calculation for you. I have only played around with it a little but so far so good. The only downside is that if you are using it from one patient to the next like I would it can be a pain to do the number entry with a rolling number wheel rather than direct entry. Also maybe a different title than 2Fat which sounds a little judgmental! Overall a good program and hopefully someone else will come up with a medical calculator that has several other simple calculations that we might use on a daily basis like those available for palm pilots.
Good  By: Catherine-rose - 03-Mar-2009 Version: 2.2 Liked it and updated are great

Ok  By: ipodtouchhelp - Jun 7, 2009 Version: 2.2 The metric is more accurate.

Med Student  By: Kimberbuji - Aug 5, 2008 Version: 2.0 Ignore the haters. For those in the medical community that actually need to calculate a BMI more than once a year, this tool works perfectly. It has a great interface and is quick and easy. Not to mention, you can't beat the price.
AWESOME!  By: LBS123 - 26-Aug-2008 Version: 2.0 As a fitness trainer this app is very handy and useful.

Accurate...... But......  By: Fall_from_grace - 05-Aug-2008 Version: 2.0 This app worked fine. The only problem is that it doesn't give you any information about the data entered. It would be better if it informed the user that he/she was underweight, normal, or overweight. As it is, you have to use other calculators on the Internet to get that result.
Good not great  By: volleystar!!!! - Aug 24, 2008 Version: 2.0 It is a great app but it could use a way to compare with other people our age. Also if it would tell you what the ideal bmi is or how much weight to lose. Other wise it is a great app.
Height?  By: May-Ra_07 - Aug 21, 2008 Version: 2.0 Fat Percentage needs a height wheel
Hheelloo I'm not 16!  By: Get this game, it's free - Aug 20, 2008 Version: 2.0 Great, totally fun to play with but u need to go down to age 13!
