Dídac Sabatés removed the scale’s Wi-Fi so it can’t upload to Withings and wrote an ESPHome component that receives each weigh-in over Bluetooth. Readings land in Home Assistant per person, with no cloud and no change to the scale.
- ai
- OpenCode running Codex analysed an old Withings app and wrote the ESPHome component, over many flash-and-weigh cycles; ChatGPT helped with early research.
- caveats
- Code not public yet. Tested on one scale with two profiles. Needs an original ESP32; C3 and S3 boards will not work. Not a universal Withings integration.
