YourOwnWeigh bypasses Withings subscription for data syncing
Developer Tom Anthony released YourOwnWeigh, an open source project that reroutes Withings scale data away from the company's servers so it can be synced to third-party apps for free. It was built in response to Withings Plus, a subscription the company now requires for new users to sync health data. The project currently supports only two older Withings scale models.
- Runs on your own server or a free Cloudflare account
- Patches scale firmware to upload data to a non-Withings server
- Apple Health import is handled via a Shortcuts automation
- Compatibility limited to two older Withings scale models
