Aria 2 confusion about the usage

[scalextrix]

Got the Aria 2 today, setup using my phone and its connected to my WiFi.  I'm confused because when stepping onto the scale, nothing happens.  No icons show up, no lights nothing.  I stand there for a random amount of time, step off, then it shows my weight and updates my tracker.

There should be some confirmation that the scale is actually doing something, or at least a reliable means to know the weight has been taken and is ready for logging.  In the current state I have no idea how long to stand on the scale.

Hi @scalextrix,

Usually on mine there's a checkmark once I step off the scale to show that it's recorded the weight properly.  If you stand on it too long, you will see a pair of feet walking backwards to indicate that it's time to step off the scale.

With my scale that does not happen, but how do you know when to step off?

Now I understand the problem, while my partner was weighing in I could easily see the screen prompts, but my partner could not.  The viewing angle on the LCD display is set that while you are on the scales and looking directly down, the prompts cannot be seen, except if you make the room very dark, then you can just about see them!  What a poor design!
