And this is the story of Scelta:
Everyone who uses a scale regularly knows this problem:
Your bodyweight fluctuates from day to day and it’s difficult to say whether you gained weight, lost weight or just had a heavy day. Salty food, hydration status, sleep, stress, and hormonal fluctuations are just some of the many factors that can influence your weight heavily in the short term.
Common weight tracking apps only compare your current weight with your weight from an earlier date, eg. your weight 14 days ago. Depending on your condition on that specific day it could well be that - although you definitely lost weight in the last 14 days - are heavier than exactly 14 days ago. So just comparing your weight to an earlier weight doesn’t tell the whole story and it can be really difficult and demotivating to assess your progress this way.
To know what’s really going on you need to compare averages to each other. - eg. the average of the last 7, 14 or 30 days to the average of the 7, 14 or 30 days before. The difference, also known as delta, between these time spans is a very informative indicator of what really happens to your body weight.
Until now a few ambitious people compiled their own excel-files to achieve this or calculated the delta manually.
Fortunately there’s a new way of calculating your “scale delta” now: Scelta!
With Scelta weight tracking is approachable, meaningful, a lot of fun and incredibly motivating.
Data visualization of the next generation:
• Your real progress: Scelta compares your average weight for the selected time span to the previous time span, eg. 7 days vs 7 days prior
• Linear regression instead of peaks and valleys: A line of best fit shows your actual weight trend graphically
• Reach your own goal: select eg. “- 1 lb per week” (or “- 0,5kg per week” depending on your local unit) and see at a glance how good you’re doing by taking a look at your adherence percentage
• Hear your weight: Swipe on the graph to see the exact value of a data point and its linear regression, hear and feel (on devices with Taptic Engine) the value of your weight entries (you’ve never seen, heard or felt your weight this way!)
And because everything is more fun as a game:
• The RPG where you are the main character: Collect Scelta Points by reaching your own goal and level up
• Prolific story: Unlock many different achievements for your adhering to your weight adventure
• Online leader boards: Compete with your friends or users worldwide to see who accomplishes their personal weight goals best
Losing weight on a fat-loss diet, keeping your lean-gaining phase in check or if you’re just trying to maintain your current weight:
Scelta motivates you in a unique way to reach your personal goals and should not be missed by anyone who uses a scale.
Scelta integrates with the Apple Health app:
Scelta uses the Health app that is pre-installed on your iPhone to show already existing weight data and to save new entries. Because of this Scelta will ask you to grant read- and write-access to your weight data.
Your weight is only visible to you and is not sent or visible to anyone but yourself.
Achievements you unlock and points you collect to climb the leader boards are a result of how well you adhere to your goals and not your actual weight entries. The goal you set for yourself is not visible to anyone else as well.
