Diabetes in Check: Blood Glucose & Carb Tracker App Reviews

Please, please fix this App. It gets worse every day.

Ive been searching for an app that will monitor my BG, weight, carb intake and exercise. This app does that. Its easy to use. BUT it crashes A LOT and your data is lost. Ive had days where Ive entered the same info several times because each time I went to enter a meal or test result the previous entry was gone. Not just that days info but everything ever entered. Unless you want to keep records for long periods of time this app is worth having.

I need this app in my life, BUT it provides so much unnecessary stress! Its constantly quitting, losing data, and driving me insane. Its the perfect app for carb counting! Trust me, Ive tried many others apps because of these frustrations and NOTHING compares to this one...IF IT ONLY WORKED!!!!

I wish that I could write a review about how this app works, but it hasnt worked for me at all. Period. I cant even create an account to have it crash on me like so many of the other reviews on here.

The app has great potential but it erases the food logs every day. They have to be entered more than once and the create a good part doesnt register what is put in, then all of a sudden it will be there three or more times. I spend more time entering my food and its easier to use My Fitness Pal and just use a notebook to keep track of my carbs and sugars. It is a shame because it could be a great app

This app is excellent at recording food items and nutrition values for every meal and every snack you eat. However when a food item is not found in its permanent database, you have to add that food item manually. Normally you can then use that custom food item as often as you like for as long as you like. I have some favorite custom food items that I have used for two years in this app. Unfortunately the custom food database is broken. New food items that I add and apply to a new meal are immediately forgotten, and it instead substitutes an old, different food item from the custom database. After waiting months for this to be fixed I now find that even routine meals are immediately forgotten. The investors in this app need to fire the software developers and hire replacements that know how to test and debug.

The only thing I really dont like about this App. Is: I take two different insulins, one is the same units twice a day, the other is a short acting insulin on a sliding scale. You cant put both in or just add a note. The rest I think is a pretty good App!! Easy to use and quick to add your information.

Please fix this wonderful app. I can track BS, carbs/nutrition, exercise, meds and it has the capability of looking up nutritional values of foods and even the ability of adding foods and or recipes not found on their food data base. Downfall. Loses data, crashes a lot. Id love to be able to export and print out a daily sheet of all Inputted for the day. Hope future updates offer that. Tech support would be nice too!

I wish there was a way to see all my entries. My doctor wants to see all my data from visit to visit, not just the last 7 days and their averages. If theres a way to do that, Id bump this to 4 stars. And, if theres a way to get that ad out of the way on the Progress pop-up, Id bump it to 5 stars!

I have used this app for approximately 18 months now. Slow to open, cant seem to stay connected and cant reset the report to select the timeframe I want for the email.

App crashes a lot. Its a great concept but Ive only been using it for 6 days and on the 5th day it cleared out all my food info.

App crashes about every third time its used. Also I have yet to successfully use the barcode scanner, it always tells me the product cannot be found, even if the exact product is found in the search. And I know that it states during the info-set-up page that it is not meant to be used for gestational diabetes, but it would be nice if it would allow you to set custom calorie and carb levels so you could meet your daily requirements. Most of us with gestational diabetes (or any diabetes for that matter) know what all our individual specific levels should be, so it would be nice to be able to use an app to monitor and track them. Otherwise its an ok app. The meal and recipe sections are great. UPDATE: Removing one of the stars from my previous rating... Now the app seems to be losing my food entries for the day. I enter breakfast, then later try to enter lunch, and breakfast is gone... Really frustrating.

Im a Type1, so Im just looking for an easy way to track my blood sugar daily. This app fills the bill. I havent had any problems with the app losing data....will occasionally "crash", but can generally re-open right after. My only real complaint is the med tracker....I take 3 different medications but its really kinda geared toward one medication. Good basic tracker.

Buggy but it is very helpful overall.

I love it Its very useful in my condition

This app is amazing! I cant believe it is free but thank God. Being diabetic is expensive! I am going to tell everyone about it. I can track my food, feelings, blood glucose readings, medications and insulin units that I take. Make notes about anything that comes up that may have an impact on my levels. It provides tips and articles. When you add food to keep track you can search and they have a ton of foods that already have the nutrition facts or you can add your own. Recipes are included, there is a meal planner!!!!! I am betting there are still things I havent discovered that are awesome! This app has really made me feel like I am more in control of the diabetes and less like it has control of me. My teenager was just diagnosed as type 1 and I am going to have him DL this as well. I really love it. A big thanks to whoever made this. You have made a difference in my life!

Crashes crashes

I was recently told that I am prediabetic. I got this app so that I could learn about counting carbs. I have used it three days. It is very helpful, and easy to use. It even has branched names of things like yogurt. When I cant find the exact product, I look for something close. I havent really tried to add custom foods yet.

Often crashes and/or hangs up. Very frustrating. Otherwise its an excellent app for tracking and managing diet and for monitoring blood glucose and related health parameters. By "often" I mean every time it opens it crashes, but seems to work after it is reopened. Running on iPhone 6s iOS 9.2.1

Since time change wont go to current day
