Full reference of all BodyMetrics views, capabilities, and workflows.
Views at a Glance
BodyMetrics organises information into five dedicated views reachable from the Summary screen:
| View | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Summary | Main entry point — one metric at a time with colour zone badge |
| Detail | Expanded numeric breakdown for the selected metric |
| Info | Clinical description, reference zones, and reading context |
| Trend | Historical chart with selectable time windows |
| Target Delta | Distance from the effective target for the selected metric |
Summary Screen
The Summary screen is the first thing you see after setup. It displays:
- The metric name and its current value.
- A colour zone badge indicating where the reading falls (healthy, borderline, out of range).
- Shortcut hints for available actions.
Use UP / DOWN to cycle through all tracked metrics. Each metric remembers the last value you entered.
Detail Screen
Press ENTER on the Summary screen to open Detail. It shows a richer numeric breakdown — for example, both muscle mass in kg and the derived muscle percentage.
Info Screen
From Summary, long-press ENTER (or START) to open the Info screen for the current metric.
Info displays:
- A textual description of the metric.
- Reference zones with low / normal / high boundaries.
- Context about what influences the reading.
The Info screen supports scrolling with UP / DOWN when the text exceeds the screen height.
Trend Screen
Accessible from the Detail screen or via the Menu → Trend path.
Trend shows a line chart of your historical readings for the selected metric. You can switch between available time windows (e.g. last 7 days, 30 days, 90 days) using the menu.
Target Delta Screen
Shows the numerical and visual distance between the current reading and the effective target for the selected metric.
The effective target is either:
- your custom target, if you have set one; or
- the policy-derived target calculated automatically from your profile.
Measurement Entry
From Menu → User data → Check-ins → Enter data, the measurement wizard lets you manually enter values for all tracked metrics.
Each field uses a bounded min/max/step cycle — UP increases the value, DOWN decreases it.
On save, the app:
- Updates the current readings.
- Records a history snapshot for trend charts.
- Recalculates all derived values.
Target Management
From Menu → User data → Targets → Set, the target wizard lets you define personal goals for each metric.
Options:
- Set — enter a custom goal.
- Reset all targets — revert all goals to policy-derived defaults.
Profile Management
From Menu → User data → Profile, you can revisit and update the profile fields (sex, age band, body profile, height) at any time.
Language Switching
From Menu → Preferences → Language, you can switch the interface language. See Localization for supported languages.
System Info Screen
From Menu → System → Information, the system info screen displays:
- App name and version
- Release date
- Author
- Website (as a selectable QR code button)
Pressing ENTER on the website entry opens a full-screen QR code view.
Full Data Reset
From Menu → System → Reset Data, you can erase all locally stored measurements, history, and targets. The profile is preserved by default.
