If you need a blind accessible smart scale in the EU, Lidl's Silver Crest SBF75 body analyser is a pretty good choice for 18 euros. The only inaccessible bit is when it asks for a 6 digit code during bluetooth pairing.

Everything else works beautifully, the Health for You app is completely accessible via VoiceOver (not sure about Android), including the measurements history, weight, water intakes, calories data, etc.

The scale also supports up to 8 people based on a reference measurement during your profile setup, which can be done on the phone through the app as well. All in all, this is a fantastic experience compared to a lot of other, way more expensive bluetooth smart scales. #a11y #blind

now that would be awesome if there was something like that here in the US. if there is, I haven't heard about it. I would love an accessible scail that would work with android, or the IPhone, or both and be accessible.

I am sure there is, it's just a matter of experimenting which is unfortunately not a good idea for your wallet.

Given that Lidl used to have talking bathroom and food scales, blood pressure monitors, I figured I'd give this a try because their brand is surprisingly reliable for an affordable price and luckily it worked out beautifully. I've heard Xiaomi's scales also work, though their app is not as good.
