If you have incorrectly entered your height or need to update your height on your Evolt Active Account.
To modify your height in the Evolt Active App, navigate to the "More" section and choose "Edit profile" then edit your Height details. After making the necessary changes, remember to tap on "Update" to save the changes.
If you prefer updating through our website at https://app.evoltactive.com/, simply go to the "Edit Profile" tab, edit your Height details and select "Save" to ensure that your information is accurately saved.
Note that any changes to your information made will only impact the data of your upcoming scans and not those from previous ones.
Does the height being manually entered impact results?
Height does impact scan results, BIA devices must have 5 points of data to provide an accurate, repeatable scan
- Height
- Age
- Gender
- Weight
- Impedance
Impedance is a measure of the reactance of tissue in the human body.
The reflection of overall results cannot correlate between different people. Quite often people who are quite fit can have reduced overall results if their lean tissue is at the bottom range of optimal for their height, age and gender. It could also be that some individuals have higher or lower internal body fat numbers.
It is the same for Body Fat Percentage, which can be skewed between bodies. In other words, just because someone appears leaner visually, does not mean that they will be leaner as internal body fat around the organs (visceral fat) is not visible to the human eye and takes up part of the overall scores.
