Manually add health data

Would be great to have a way to add other health measurements beyond weight. I have a tanita BC-1000 but since I upgraded to the forerunner 920xt I don't have a way to sync that data over to Garmin Connect. Would be nice to at least have the option to manually input those fields (like Body Fat %).

It would be nice but Garmin don't seem in a hurry to add it unfortunately

There is an App "Weight Logger" on android that lets you enter the data - a bit clunky but does the job

On an iPhone unfortunately. I found I can add custom items to track in myFitnessPal, but since I have to create them, I don't think Garmin recognizes them as the correct value.

Hopefully with Connect IQ out we'll eventually see some kind of updated support for Tanita scales.

It's annoying. Even though the Garmin Connect iPhone app syncs with the Health app, it doesn't sync over or receive any weight data.

Just want to add my voice to this request! I got a pretty decent health screening and would love to be able to put this information in. Doesn't do me that much on a printout.

I had the same non-sync issue - 920XT/Tanita BC-1000. Dowloaded ANT+ Weight Scale Display $6.99AU from Google Play Store to smart phone (requires ANT Radio Service on phone). Works perfectly ... no manual input.
