I cannot seem to get the body fat to work in the app with my scale. I've set it up and it is taking weights but it always shows the same percentage body fat. I am standing on it Barefoot. Any suggestions?

Aria Air does not measure body fat %;  that's one of the things that makes it cost less.

Before posting, re-read to see if it would make sense to someone else not looking at your Fitbit or phone.

BMI only changes when your weight changes, regardless of body fat.  It depends only on height and weight.  If, and only if, your weight has been changing, then BMI should also be changing.  Try weighing yourself while holding something weighing a few pounds, and see if that doesn't change your BMI.  You can then delete that reading from Fitbit, or just leave it, knowing it will get b ack to normal at next weigh-in.
