Developer releases open-source tool to bypass Withings' new subscription requirement
Developer Tom Anthony built YourOwnWeigh, an open-source project that reroutes data from Withings smart scales away from Withings' servers to a user-controlled server instead. The tool patches scale firmware via Bluetooth and can run on a free Cloudflare account, letting users sync weigh-in data to apps like Apple Health without paying for Withings Plus.
