Renfo fitness tech

Hello everyone,
I have been on a bit of a fitness journey the past year and a half or so, and have tried a few different gadgets in that time. I've used a runstar scale for body fat calculations, even knowing they aren't 100% accurate, but at least good for tracking trends, and I've also had a cheaper smart ring, like a $30 or less find. However, I wanted to upgrade a bit, so recently invested in a Renfo smart scale. Not their most expensive model, but still a step up from what I had. Also I grabbed a tape measure from them. This is cool because it will save your measurements. I will be picking up their smart ring today.
What I can say about their app:
It is quite easy to read all data from the scale, go back and read measurements previously stored in the app, add devices, navigate most of the interface. What is not so easy, at least on the Android side, is making any kind of selection in screens to set height, weight, set weight/body fat goals, that kind of thing. Those controls are completely inaccessible to talkback. When using the describe screen feature, I can tell they are there, but can't use them. And, even when asking talkback where the controls are located, turning talkback off, and trying to touch around and see if I can do anything, once I turn talkback back on, I find that nothing was adjusted. So, controls on the android side aren't the most accessible for those particular screens.
Having said that, the times I will need to make said adjustments are few and far between. And, when it is needed, my sighted girlfriend is more than happy to help out, so no biggie.
I would love to see the accessibility improve, but for right now, it's good enough to make me want to keep investing in the renfo ecosystem.
What is also quite nice is that it will sync up with Samsung Health, Healthconnect, as well as Apple Health over on the iOS side. I had a play around with the Renfo Health app over on the iOS side, as I have an old iPhone 8 laying around, and controls on the iOS version are much more accessible, but using the iOS app to set goals and make those adjustments isn't always the best way to go, as it logs you out of the android version, and then you need to log back in. More fuss than it is worth.
But, I just wanted to let the community know about these devices, as they are reasonably user friendly. Quite nice on the iOS side, from the 5 minutes I spent in that app, and at least decent on Android. If you are looking to have more fitness data, not always have to wear the watch, and be able to track your progress, this brand offers some pretty good options. And, they were at least responsive when I left a review mentioning the accessibility improvements that are needed.
