How can I track my weight privately on my phone?
Short answer: You can keep a weight log on your phone without any account. PrivateSteps lets you choose kg or lb, set a target, and see your weight as a line on a chart next to your steps. Your entries are stored only on your phone and never uploaded.
A weight log that stays with you
Weight is personal. Many tools want an account, a profile and sometimes a social feed. PrivateSteps asks for none of that.
- No account, no ads, no analytics, no leaderboard.
- Entries are stored only on your phone.
- No cloud and no sharing. The app has no internet access of its own.
Details are on our privacy page.
Units and a target
- Choose kg or lb.
- Add as many entries as you like, as often as you like.
- Set a target weight. It appears as a dashed line on your chart.
We only record and draw your numbers. Your own doctor or care team is the right person to talk with about your weight and any targets.
Your weight next to your steps
The Compare screen draws steps and weight as lines on one chart, with your target as a dashed line. Pick Week, Month, Year or All to look at a short stretch or the long view. We show the lines and leave the conclusions to you.
There is more in tracking steps and health numbers together.
A quick look from the home screen
A wider home screen widget can show your weight along with steps, distance and streak, so you can check without opening the app.
Getting started
Open the Log in PrivateSteps, choose weight, pick kg or lb and type in a number. PrivateSteps is free to start, and the store listing shows current pricing.
If you already count steps with us, your weight log sits right alongside. The app is available in 53 languages, so the labels can match the language you read best. If you ever want everything gone, one button erases all your data from the phone.
