Cause of death: the autopsy
It would have to be a native iPhone app talking to the scale over Bluetooth, not a cheap web service, and it would run against the vendor's terms. Commenters expected Withings to drop the paywall anyway. The radar scored it 10 of 25.
The numbers
None. It was never built, so there are no visitors, sales or ad spend to count. It died on paper, which is the cheapest place to die.
Could rise again if
Withings keeps the paywall and the sync can be done without a native app.
