Will the scale stay on as long as you stand on it or will it shut off?

I guess I never stood on it that long. It seems to stay on quite a while but I assume eventually it would turn off.

No. Your toes and/or your heels will hang off but the scale is still accurate. It is an awesome scale.

The scale shuts off a short period of time after you step off of it. I believe it also quits connecting to your device at the same time.

It will shut off after a minute or so... but more importantly than that the dish it comes with will scrub the sides of the opening of the case causing inaccurate readings near is 20 gram limit and must be centered well before measurements can be made. All and all its a good scale and is very accurate. If needed I would buy this on again. Works great for weighing gold flake!

If you stay actively weighing things...it stays on, but if you pause for 60 seconds...it will turn off.

You have to stay on the scale until the gauge thing at the top goes all the way to the right and then it will start displaying all the additional information. If you step on, the weight is displayed and then step off, the scale doesn't have time to calculate the information. You also need to stand still.

Yes, it auto shuts down after about 30 secs of inactivity... it's kind of a pain to keep poking the scale when I'm measuring stuff.

It shuts off automatically. I haven't timed it, but I would guess it's about a minute. It's enough time to leave it and check a recipe and come back to it. This is a fabulous kitchen scale; when the first one broke down (after a few years of heavy use) I didn't think twice about replacing it with the same product.

The display part of the scale is not mounted to the scale itself. It's tethered so to speak.It can be unplugged from the scale if needed.

The timer works just like any stop-watch type of timer. You can start it , stop it, and also start it back up after stopping it if you'd like. The only downside is that you cannot reset the timer without turning the scale on/off completely.

I haven't had a problem with it shutting off before I am finished weighing my food. I usually wind up shutting it off manually, so I do not have the answer for you. I have another brand at my other residence which always shuts off in the middle of my weighing my food, this one does not do that.

Yes it does have an auto shut-off feature. I'm not so sure exactly how long before it turns of, but I'dguess at around a minute or so. I really do love this scale, by the way. Sometimes if I'm weighing something that isn't finished yet and I need to get additional ingredients, I just press down on the bowl (or whatever it is containing what I'm weighing) for a second which lengthens the time it will stay on.

Hi, Randoma. The scale will auto-shut-off in 60s if no operations, please noted.

The directions say that the auto shutoff feature is set to 3 minutes. It does not show any way to change it. So I assume it is hard wired. I find that 3 minutes is pretty good for the auto shutoff. I also timed the boot time for the scale. It takes 3 to 4 seconds for the scale to be ready after hitting the on button. I find that to be quick enough.

I have gotten much more than 2-3 minutes before auto shut off... Maybe 8-10 minutes? It stays on an exceptionally long time. Very helpful. This is an outstanding feature of this scale. Plus, if you require longer, you can use the included AC cord - I am not sure if it ever shuts off if it is plugged in. In either case, you don't have to worry that when you come back to it after doing something in the kitchen that you will have lost your readings. I use this scale every day, and am 100% happy with it.

No I do not believe so. When you step on it the weight doesnt change (and I purposely moved the scale to see if I stood on it different or if I moved it around with my feet-) seemed to stay the same with no change.

The weight on my Mira scale stays and blinks for about a minute. However, I find the scale is usually about 3 to 8 lbs. off.
