Frequently Asked Questions

Is BMI accurate for everyone?

BMI is a general screening tool and doesn't account for muscle mass, bone density, or overall body composition. Athletes may have a high BMI due to muscle, not fat.

What if my BMI is too high or low?

Consult a healthcare provider for personalized advice. BMI is just one indicator of health and should not be used as a sole diagnostic tool.

Is my data stored?

No. All calculations are performed locally in your browser. Your height and weight values never leave your device.

What's a healthy BMI range?

A BMI between 18.5 and 24.9 is considered Normal weight. Below 18.5 is Underweight, 25–29.9 is Overweight, and 30+ is Obese.
