I’m excited to announce the launch of Mindful Body, a new iOS app for tracking your body composition with clarity and confidence.
As someone who’s been tracking fitness data for years, I was frustrated by body composition apps that either only tracked weight, buried you in cluttered interfaces, or sent your sensitive body data to third-party servers. I wanted something better: comprehensive tracking, beautiful insights, and absolute privacy. So I built it.
More Than Just a Scale
Mindful Body tracks everything you’d want to monitor about your body composition:
- Weight with automatic BMI calculation
- Body fat percentage and muscle mass
- Visceral fat level and basal metabolic rate
- Circumferences: chest, waist, hips, neck, arms, and thighs
Log what you have, skip what you don’t. Some days you’ll just step on the scale. Other days you’ll do a full body composition check. The app adapts to your routine, not the other way around.
Insights That Actually Help
Raw numbers are useful, but trends tell the real story. Mindful Body provides interactive trend charts for every metric, science-backed insights about your body composition changes, and a logging streak to keep you consistent.
The goal-aware dashboard is one of my favorite features: set a target for weight, body fat, or any metric, and your dashboard cards change color to show whether you’re heading in the right direction. Green means you’re on track. It’s a small detail that makes a big difference for motivation.
Progress Photos, Protected
Visual progress matters, but body photos are deeply personal. Mindful Body stores progress photos in the app’s private container, never in your camera roll. You can lock the entire gallery behind Face ID for an extra layer of privacy. Photos sync across your devices via iCloud, encrypted end-to-end.
Privacy by Design
This was non-negotiable from day one:
- All data stays on your device (or your private iCloud)
- No analytics SDKs, no tracking, no ads
- Two-way Apple Health sync, so your data flows where you want it
- Full data export at any time
Your body data is your business. Period.
Built with Apple’s Latest
Under the hood, Mindful Body uses SwiftUI for the interface, SwiftData with CloudKit for seamless iCloud sync, and HealthKit for reading from and writing to Apple Health. The app supports both metric and imperial units, dark mode, home screen widgets, and customizable reminders.
It’s part of the Mindful Apps family alongside Mindful Coffee, which focuses on caffeine tracking with cortisol rhythm modeling.
Launch Offer: Free Lifetime Access
To celebrate the launch, I’m giving away free lifetime access with the code GETFIT2026. You can redeem it directly here:

What’s Next
I’m actively developing new features based on user feedback. If you have ideas or find a bug, you can open an issue on GitHub or reach out via the app’s Settings. The source documentation and FAQ are available on the Mindful Body GitHub repository.
Your body composition journey starts now. I hope Mindful Body helps you see the full picture.
