Phone app for measuring eggs weight

[Maiahr]

Has anyone used a phone app for measuring eggs weight? I installed 2 apps today on my phone to test them, as I don't have a scale, but neither worked. Then my bf told me there are apps for this purpose, but I couldn't find any actually working.

I don't know about that, but you can get a digital kitchen scale pretty inexpensively at Walmart.

I have two kitchen scales, but they only measure whole numbers, for example 15 grams. For eggs I need a scale that measures decimal places, i.e. 15.34 grams.

Try a postal scale then.

Don't know how a app can work without a scale of some sort?
I got one from Aldi's, not sure if they still have them they change what they have often. But it is dead accurate and works great. Got it for weighing ground meat and spices seasoning ingredients for all sorts of sausages snack sticks jerky etc and egg weights. Has grams and ounces and pounds up to 11lbs . Works great for light weights also, and can tare off the weight of a bowl or plate and just get what you add weight .
Double yolker 108 gram duck egg on it from pekins I've got a bunch of them, have had brown leghorn eggs even bigger before

I found online some jewellery scales that say they are super accurate. But I still prefer a phone app...

Why the .34? Why to that accuracy?

@Beer can yeah I have kitchen scales, but they only measure whole numbers. For quail eggs I need to measure two digits after the decimal point.

Well as a start for humidity during incubation. The more precise, the better. Then for medications. I buy them powdered medications that are water disolvable..
