LibreBase

1.0.0 · In Development

Your QardioBase scale, straight into Apple Health.

When Qardio shut down — app delisted, servers dark — the scales kept working over Bluetooth. LibreBase is a tiny, independent, open-source iOS app that pairs with your QardioBase, reads your weight the moment you step on, and saves it to Apple Health. No account, no cloud, no Qardio app, no tracking.

Distribution: Direct build / TestFlight

Store Status: Prepare for submission

Current Build: 4 (version 1.0.0)

Tested With: QardioBase 1st generation (B100) only

Languages: English (U.S.)

Source: Open source (MIT) on GitHub

  • iOS
  • Apple Health
  • Bluetooth LE
  • In-App BMI
  • Metric & Imperial
  • Open Source

Why LibreBase

  • Keeps an orphaned QardioBase useful after Qardio's shutdown.
  • Direct Bluetooth — no account, cloud, or Qardio app.
  • Weight saved straight to Apple Health on your device.
  • In-app BMI from your height, synced with Apple Health.
  • No servers, no analytics, no tracking whatsoever.

Good To Know

  • Tested only with the original QardioBase (1st gen, B100).
  • QardioBase 2 / X are untested — may work, no promises.
  • Units follow your region: kg/lb and cm/ft.
  • A wellness logger, not a medical device.
  • MIT-licensed — contributions welcome.

TrackHound app icon

TrackHound

Navigation that deliberately takes the small roads.

TrackHound is an offline routing app for ADV motorcycles, supermoto, 4x4 / overlanding, and gravel bikes.
