Calculate and *display graph* of childhood height, weight, BMI, head circumference, weight for height percentiles and growth velocity based on the new WHO Child Growth Standards. This is equivalent to the STAT GrowthCharts WHO upgrade.

Reference: WHO Child Growth Standards: Methods and development: Length/height-for-age, weight-for-age, weight-for-length, weight-for-height and body mass index-for-age The WHO Multicentre Growth Reference Study (MGRS) The WHO Multicentre Growth Reference Study (MGRS) was undertaken between 1997 and 2003 to generate new growth curves for assessing the growth and development of infants and young children around the world. The MGRS collected primary growth data and related information from approximately 8500 children from widely different ethnic backgrounds and cultural settings (Brazil, Ghana, India, Norway, Oman and the USA). The new growth curves are expected to provide a single international standard that represents the best description of physiological growth for all children from birth to five years of age and to establish the breastfed infant as the normative model for growth and development.

Latest reviews of STAT GrowthCharts WHO app for iPhone and iPad

Needs update
Screen squished on I phone 5 with new iOS update making it hard to press 4 or 7 or decimal places. Percentiles overlap and no option to use set 2 of WHO.
Limited functionality, poor display
Cons: not working well with IOs9 - poorly formatted - the spot where you enter weight sits on top of the button for gender so you cant click on gender. You can enter birthdate but not the date of assessment - it assumes that date of assessment is today.
Bad and unuseful
Ive lost money! Dont install!!!
Needs head circumference calculations to age 5 (as published by WHO)
**Please add head circumference calculations and graphic to age 5 years.**
Problems
Can only be used with 1 child? Not worth $8 for that! And the charts are Canadian, not USA, and no choices?
