Diabetes in Check: Blood Glucose & Carb Tracker App Reviews

105 add

I love the app but....

I forgot my password for this app & I see no way to recover it.

Love it.

Tracking meals is easy with the scanner inputting glucose levels is simple. Please link with the apple health app though!!!!

Awesome

This app has helped me learn about what to eat without a set out diet. How food reacts to my sugar and I feel better along with losing 18 lbs in 7 weeks. Thank you just need more items on your food list.

Good, so far

So far it does what I expect. I can log the food I eat and if what Im looking for is found is data base it can be created just like "my fitness pal" I can log my meds I take and what my blood sugar is. Pretty Kool so far.

Too much advertising and data mining

I spent less than 10 minutes with this thing - very annoying. No matter what "I" selected it would default to something else, it wouldnt let me delete an entry so I could go back and try again, the quesrions do make sense for diabetes but since the majority of the screens are covered with an advertisement you cant get rid of - makes me think its more about data mining than helping me to track my diabetes and improving my health. I work a non-traditional work schedule so things are not as easy as Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner. The testing labels do not fit for my lifestyle and it doesnt let you create your own. I was really disappointed because this looked like something I could use to track my testing in a way I could share with my Doc, a med reminder and meal planner. I have several apps that do those things but do all of these things together well.

Simple

I was using my fitness pal but switched to this after a diagnosis of pre diabetes. I like this app for monitoring intake. I wish it displayed total calories exercise sand net calories instead of just net calories.

Time Consuming, and very lacking...

Not very user friendly. When I input data I cant enter the number. I need too spin wheels. The wheel always defaults to 5mg and I need to spin it to get too 500mg, every time! The foods should allow you to import nutrition values with bar code scanner as the fatsecret app does. Then to see my progress of glucose levels it takes forever to analyze the data. Then you just get an average!!! No chart, no graph, no progress report,,,,

Not a bad app

This is not a bad app. It is good for counting carbs but the calorie counter never seems to add the calories correctly.

Used to like

Ever since their last "maintenance" update on 3/10/15, this app has not worked properly. You can no longer add any foods that are not in their database. I loved this app for 9 months and lost 35 lbs. I need to continue, but they are not fixing it. A lot of people have complained. On 3/9/15, I would have given this app 5 stars and a glowing recommendation. Now? Its crap. Dont waste your time until they fix it. Sorry Everyday Health, but youre not helping.

No longer saves daily food journal

This app was fantastic but since a recent update, your daily food entries do not save. I refuse to continue to input my daily food multiple times a day to get an accurate big picture. On to another app...

Perfect

This app is so perfect for me. I have been able to reduce mu blood sugar because this app is so user friendly.

Its good

I really like the app, but it has 2 problems. I cant change the number of serving and it had no picture of the food dishes. Otherwise the app works great.

Scanner doesnt work with iphone 6

Cant get scanner to work. What few directions exist dont help.

Mostly good but needs...

Been using several months. Pretty solid. I like it. Need to be able to save past data. Current week is not enough. Like to be able to email reports to nutritionists. Cant edit stored foods. Many scanned labels dont agree with what label says. Now its losing or forgetting data a say at a time. Getting frustrated. Lowering review. Developer needs to fix bugs ASAP.

Annoying

This app has the potential to be AWESOME but it crashes A LOT and my previous information is always disappearing. It is very annoying because Im trying to help my husband (who was just diagnosed with type 2 diabetes) keep up with his carb intake and blood sugar levels and basically this app is useless.

Crashes All of the Time

This app would be awesome if it didnt crash pretty much every time I use it.

Used to be a great app!

Worked like a charm until the last couple of updates. Please fix! Now it crashes all the time!

This app literally saved my life!

On May 27, 2015 I checked my blood glucose and it was at 420mg/dL. I entered the number into the app and it alerted me to see my doctor immediately. When I got toy doctors office they checked my ketone and blood glucose. Once my results came in the call an ambulance and informed me that Im at risk of going into a diabetic coma. Long story short, Im fine and nothing major happened outside of the above. – Thank You So Much!!!

Frustrating!!!

I LOVED this app until the last update. It crashes just about every time I open it and dont even get me started on the food journal! It is such a great tool to keep me on track, but Ive lost my meals and the custom foods Ive entered 3 times just today! Fix these issues or Ill be forced to find another resource and I really dont want to do that.

Fix the app please

I used to love this app but now all it keeps I my blood sugars it doesnt keep my food list. I hope you get it fixed or Ill just have to delete it.
