Fat percentage field in weight dashboard?

I like being able to track my weight everyday via the mobile GC app on my Android, but where's the body fat percentage field? I'd like to see that as a field.

    The field does exist in the system but is reserved for use with, and is only visible, if you have a Garmin Index Scale.

    I have the Garmin Index Scale S2. No, body fat percent is not an option in the connect dashboard Disappointed

    Yes, Body Fat is not an option directly on the Weight card on the MyDay screen Fat in Garmin Connect, but it is visible when you tap the Weight card, and enter the detailed Weight report. It is the same case for GC Web as well - body fat is available on the detailed Weight page.

    And you can get the fat percentage into Garmin Connect even without the Garmin Index Scale - you can import the values at [https://connect.garmin.com/modern/import-data] using a CSV file in the following format:

    Body
Date,Weight,BMI,Fat
"2021-02-26","77.7","22.2","11.1"

    Thanks it worked, is there a way to add SMM (skeletal muscle mass) to it ?

    No, you can currently only Import the fat%. Muscle mass currently only with the Index scale, I believe. There used to be also some 3rd party tools, that could perhaps add some other values, but I am not familiar with them, and am not sure whether they still exist. Try searching the forum, I think someone posted a link in an older thread.
