Why Hume's Body Pod Technology Stands Out for Accuracy
How Does Hume BIA Technology Work?
High-level accuracy, available in the home
Trusted by 12,000+ health clinics, Hume Body Pod uses military-grade technology for unmatched precision and reliability. Designed for both professionals and individuals, it delivers consistent, clinical-grade results with superior accuracy.
Hume is the founder of Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis (BIA) and the first to bring a so-called body fat analyser to the market. By continuing to innovate and develop, we have become the world leader in health monitoring and the only manufacturer making it available to both professionals and home users.
Unparalleled Precision with Advanced Algorithms

Biometric Impedance Analysis
Body Pod Multi-Frequency Monitors measure bioelectrical impedance at three or six different frequencies, offering a significantly higher level of accuracy compared to single or dual-frequency monitors. The lower frequencies assess impedance outside the cell membrane, while the higher frequencies penetrate the cell membrane. By analyzing impedance at both levels, the monitor can estimate extracellular water (ECW), intracellular water (ICW), and Total Body Water. This valuable data is crucial for assessing a person's health status and identifying potential health risks, such as severe dehydration or edema.

Multi-Frequency BIA Technology
Hume Multi-Frequency Monitors are able to measure bioelectrical impedance analysis at three or six different frequencies. The lower frequencies measure the impedance external to the cell membrane. The higher frequencies are able to penetrate the cell membrane. By measuring impedance at both the lower and higher frequencies it is possible to estimate extracellular water (ECW), intracellular water (ICW) and Total Body Water.
Dual frequency BIA technology
Hume body composition monitors with Advanced Dual Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis Technology use two different frequencies to capture your body composition data. By using different frequencies, a higher accuracy of measurements can be achieved.
Dual and Multi-Frequencies
Additional frequencies provide an exceptional level of accuracy compared to single frequency monitors. This information is essential for providing the health status of a person and indicating health risks such as severe dehydration or edema.

“I finally feel like me again”
As someone who has struggled with maintaining a healthy weight for years, I was excited to try out the Hume Health after a recommendation from my nutritionist. It’s been a GAME CHANGER! The app is so easy to use! and being able to see my progress beyond my weight has been super motivating!"
“The only thing that worked.”
"I think we can all relate when you jump on the scale after weeks of hard works and we see no change. But since I got Hume Health, it’s changed how I measure success! It’s been SO helpful in keeping me motivated but also allowing me to focus on my health instead of my weight".
“I'm a better dad, husband and friend”
"I unlocked new benefits that went beyond weight loss and improving my blood pressure - I started experiencing higher level of energy and mental clarity. Because I was more focused, I was improving as a father, husband an employee"
“My blood sugar is back to pre-diabetic levels”
This scale is pretty amazing!! I was diagnosed with type-2 and my doctor got me a Hume Health monitor …and it’s been amazing. I love that I can easily see how my diet and different lifestyle habits affect my body…I’ve used other smart scales before, but this one was super accurate when I compared it to the expensive hospital scans.

This is an outstanding scale per review by MD

I am a board-certified internist as well as medical oncologist, and have a deep interest with issues of obesity. And I am a firm believer in biomarkers that act as telltales to indicate the state of health of patients. This scale measures multiple parameters and allows the user or a number of users to track their findings over time with charts. The app works on either iPhone or iPad and perhaps other devices as well. I have used this scale for approximately two weeks and find no issues that warrant anything less than a five star review.

Really nice

"I used to use the Withings Body Scan, but it broke in 2 months, So now I bought this new scale. Wow this new one is really great. These scales are a lot cheaper than the withings body scan. The accuracy on it are much more accurate and measure far many more body parameters It can even tell that I'm right handed because it was able to measure more muscle mass on my right arm. The best part is that it can measure my body water percentage which I was wondering about. I would definitely recommend this product. Hopefully it will be more durable than the Withings Body Scan."

Accurate

It's the most accurate scale I've ever owned. I was recommended to buy it from a friend of mine who he and his family use it and recommended I use it in the same spot when I weigh myself and I've done that, but it is on point and I really really like it and it's not that expensive.

Love having one at home!

When I first learned how to weight train in the gym, one of the things I looked forward to were my monthly weigh-ins and measurements day. We used this exact model at my last gym, and I bought it based on the gym's unit performance. It's so easy to learn to use (took less than 2 minutes), and I love using this to get a better/deeper gauge of my overall health by focusing on body fat percentage (secondary obvs being scale weight). I'm shooting for 10-12% body fat by my 50th birthday next June...and owning this tool I know I will get there safely and accurately. Great quality, great performance...ergo, great user experience and reliable data.

From hand to feet accuracy

What I like about this scale is your actually measuring throughout your hands all the way down to your feet how much more accurate approach When it measures just your feet it just goes around one leg to the other and then assumes the rest of the body is built the same way That's inaccurate Now that I have all my measurements I have a baseline and I like that this scale and the app have a compare feature so I can always go back and look at day one how I started and compare how I ended up today.

FAQ

Does the BodyPod Actually Work?

Yes—our BodyPod is built on science. Our products are grounded in research and tested against medical-grade devices. In an independent study conducted by Socotech, the BodyPod was shown to be within ±3% accuracy of a DEXA scan—the gold standard for body composition measurement.

Learn more about the BIA technology

Is the app free?

Yes! A Premium subscription is not required to use your scale. You can still enjoy the Hume Health app for free and access essential features like weighing-in and viewing body measurements.

However, certain advanced features are reserved for Premium (Hume Plus) users, including:
•A comprehensive weekly Health Report that examines:
 Body Composition
 Activity
 Sleep
•Personalized health insights & recommendations to achieve your goals
•And so much more!

Does it sync with my Fitbit or Apple?

Yes! The BodyPod can connect to multiple accounts. Each user should log in with their own Hume Account for accurate tracking.

Like all Bluetooth devices, the BodyPod can only connect to one phone at a time. To weigh in, simply open your Hume Health App and step on the scale. However, if another paired user is nearby with their app open, they may need to close their app to free up the BodyPod’s connection for you

Are these technologies safe?

Yes—the BodyPod’s BIA (Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis) technology is completely safe and has been widely used for over 20 years. What sets us apart is our patented BIA frequency, which allows for greater accuracy compared to other smart body pods.

For customers with cardiac devices like pacemakers or ICDs implanted after 1992, our BodyPod is safe to use. Multiple studies have shown no interference with CIEDs (Cardiac Implantable Electronic Devices) during BIA measurements.

Your safety and trust are our top priorities—and our technology reflects that.

Does it show weekly trends on graph?

Yes! Hume tracks your progress over time and displays your data in easy-to-read graphs. You can view your weekly, monthly, and yearly averages for weight and other key health metrics. This makes it simple to spot trends, track your progress, and stay motivated on your health journey.

What Does my Warranty Cover?

1-Year Warranty
Think of this as your Hume safety net. If your device ever runs into a hiccup due to a product defect—like a sensor glitch or anything not working the way it should—we’re on it. Just give us a shout, and we’ll send you a free replacement to keep things running smoothly. No stress, no fuss, just support when you need it.

10-Year Warranty
Go long—like really long—with our 10-year warranty. It covers the same product defect protection as our 1-year plan, but for a whole decade. If your device ever stops working as expected due to a defect, we’ll replace it for free. And if it ever happens again? Your second replacement is 50% off. It’s peace of mind for the long haul, with a little bonus built in.

If I don’t like it? Can I return it?

Absolutely! We’re confident you’ll love your Hume product—but if it’s not the right fit, no worries. That’s why we offer a 30-day trial so you can try it out, commitment-free. If you decide to return it, just reach out to our customer service team first. They’ll share the return instructions—and once you ship it back to us, we’ll take it from there.
