Discover your childs growth percentiles in seconds and see where they stand!

Body Mass Index (BMI) / Growth DASHBOARD
Child BMI opens your childs BMI/Growth dashboard with everything you need to know. Your childs height and weight, Body Mass Index and its relative category, the growth percentiles for height and weight and a revolutionary chart at the bottom so you see the results instantly!

All you need to do is touch any information you see to bring up the right page or visual element to edit it. Entering your childs gender, age, height and weight is all you need to do for activating the BMI calculation, category coloring and the growth chart bar at the bottom!

BODY MASS INDEX
The BMI button is colored according to the category in which the BMI falls into. When you touch it, the BMI interactive table is displayed with the BMI large smoked glass slider showing you immediately where your child stands: Severely Underweight, Underweight, Normal, Overweight and Obese. >>> Should you have any concern about the BMI category of your child, you should always consult your pediatrician.

GROWTH CHARTS RIGHT INTO YOUR iPHONE or iPOD TOUCH!
From 2 to 13 years, any child can have its data entered and see their growth percentiles. Doctors use "Centers for Disease Control" CDC growth charts to provide percentiles; Child BMI calculates the percentiles from the data CDC uses to print the doctors charts!

EXCLUSIVE FEATURE: VISUAL GROWTH PERCENTILE
The doctors growth charts are somewhat complex looking and you need to know how to lookup information on them to find your childs percentile. Child BMI displays a visual translucent bar on boy/girl outlines to show you these percentiles in a straightforward way. You will know right away if most children same age are taller or shorter, heavier or lighter.

The Body Mass Index is the rating used by the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), by the World Health Organization (WHO) and by doctors. They are provided in Child BMI as an indicator only. >>> You should not take this information as a recommendation nor as a data point to take any action on your childs diet without consulting your pediatrician first.
