Do you have to have a FitBit to use this scale?

No you do not. It communicates with the fitbit.com web site via the internet, not through the FitBit.

No you do not. You can either use it as just a scale or create a new account with Fitbit and have it auto load your weight into your account for tracking purposes.If you are considering it, the Fitbit Flex is awesome!!!

Nope. I didn't when I first used the scale, but ultimately got one and was very happy with it. Good luck!

You do not. But if you get an account (free) at fitbit's website you can keep track of your progress!

No. They work independently. However, if you own one, it is likely you will want the other after awhile because they work so great together.

I don't think so. I don't have a FitBit. The tech level of this scale is lower monotone, not higher complex with some options for network connections. I love the scale though! It's great to have the graphs and BMI on the account page. You'll love it.

This smart scale does not have auto-sync. Q-code scanner is used. I personally returned this scale since its a no more then a non-functional high tech scale. I purchased this one afterwards Withings WS-50 Smart Body Analyzer, Black =D

No subscription required. Just register online for free to start tracking. It only tracks steps, so for even my elliptical, I have to enter the activity and time I spent doing it. I have mine synced with My Fitness Pal, and it works awesome for tracking activity and food intake. Love the fitbit, it makes me think more about being active.

I have not tried but since fitbit has it's own accompanying scale, I doubt that it is possible. I take the info from my phone app for the iphone and enter my weight in to the fitbit program.

Yes. I would zero it out before I use it (step on it until it lights up, then step back off before it can register your weight). Then step back on, and it should be accurate!

Nope, this is not a WIFI capable scale. For that you will need the Fitbit Aria scale!

No, you do not have to calibrate this scale. It work great just out of the box. I highly recommend it!

do you have to manually set the scale as user 1, etc every time you step on it??

I just step on it and it reads in a regular, digital display...I first thought maybe I had to activate it with my foot first and wait for it to go to zero, like previous digital scales...but this one just needs to be stepped onto like a regular scale... hope that helps

I do not have an I Phone and the scale works perfect without it. Just can not access some features of the scale, but works great as just a scale.

Hello. You can do both to start the scale. I just step on and it works everytime.

Nope, it sure can't. It doesn't have much of the functionality of the FitBit either. This is just a barebones pedometer with flimsy screen and ability to upload step data. No pause.

It tracks steps but not stairs (like climbed.) For stair climbing you'll want a Fitbit One. Fitbit Flex and Zip will just count those stairs as steps, which means if you are looking for calories burned it may not show as high as you really did since climbing stairs is harder than taking a level step.

The bowl fits around the scale. So, yes, you can use the scale without the bowl.

If you connect your HealthKit app and fitbit app both to myfitnesspal, it will sync across. :) just tested
