There is one called the Smart Chef, Smart Food scale that I reviewed on 
Applevis.com<http://Applevis.com>.
It has lots of Siri shortcuts so you can use it mostly hands free for weighing 
items.
It is quite responsive, but only the Talking Scale function is really 
accessible right now.
I have worked with them on the accessibility, as has others. They are very 
responsive to feedback. I cannot remember how many updates have been done since 
I first inquired about this scale a few months ago; but it is a lot.
The app is called:
Smart Chef Smart Food Scale by ReFleX Wireless Inc.
https://apps.apple.com/us/app/smart-chef-smart-food-scale/id995829381
I believe it costs around $50. It is the Pocket model, which is about 3.5 or 4 
inches square and fairly thin.

There is one called the Drop Kitchen scale, Cristobal has one and seems to like 
it.
I like smart stuff but this is one item where I am not so sure how well it 
would work and especially how responsive it is in terms of automatic read outs.
I bake a lot the European way which means ingredients get weight instead of 
adding them by cup or table spoon, tea spoon etc. If I need 500 grams of flour 
I usually use a cup measurement to put it in the bowl which is on the scale, I 
have one of the MyWeigh talking scales. After I put on a bunch I wait for a 
couple of seconds and the scale tells me the weight, then I can add a bit more 
etc. I would have to know for sure that with something like the Drop Kitchen 
scale or any other which may exist I could have the app open and Voiceover 
focused on the right area and I would get virtually instant and automatic read 
outs, I would not want to have to touch the phone.
I think Cristobal and others said that the MyWeigh talking scales keep breaking 
on them, I had my first one for at least 15 and maybe as long as 20 years, it 
then didn’t work any more and I contacted MyWeigh and they send me a new one 
for just a relatively small shipping fee of I think $20 or $25 Canadian. I 
definitely call this good customer service and doubt that Drop provides such a 
long warranty (I didn’t even have my original receipt or record of purchase any 
more).
I have now had that new model for about 2 years and it’s been working 
flawlessly.

Subject: Food scale

Does anyone know of a food scale that will connect to the IPhone and give 
readings on the phone?  Just wondering as I need to replace a scale, and was 
thinking if available I’d go the smart route.
