you can add that to the wiki but openScale its not only for Medisana scales, it supports a various scales from different vendors. openScale cannot specific for each scale a wizard or a user-level documentation to recover the poorly written scale firmware.
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. I bought a Medisana BG444 scale based on the Wiki, but when I added it to the app, I was only getting weight data, not biometric data. It turns out the manual is wrong - it describes the guest profile as "0" when on the scale it's "1". Also, I never read the manual until I had the problem, because I wasn't using their app anyway. Ok, some of this is on me, some of this is on them.
Describe the solution you'd like User-level documentation in the Wiki, or an optional "set-up wizard" in the app so that when you want to add a new device, it helps you set it up correctly for use with the app.
Describe alternatives you've considered I could go to Medisana and say "screw your app, just replace your documentation with something telling everyone to go use OpenScale" but honestly that seems less likely.
Additional context I'm very amused that the manual was written by programmers (Profiles 0-7) but the firmware was written by UX designers (1-8).
