Glucose

great app

By: Jackzen69

this app may be the best out there for diabetics. there are lot's of other glucose apps out there with all the bells and whistles but, they seem to have missed the one major point quick data entry. this app came to the amazing conclusion that just like in a log book that most all of us have used you want to put all of your information in at once. the other glucose apps are the equivalent of writing on a separate page for each individual item. a page for glucose reading, a page for food, a page for insulin and then a final page for exercise etc...

doesnt work

By: Sdmatrix

bought this app a couple weeks ago, asked twice for it to be fixed, still broke... cant put in the amount of insulin for any insulin you make, if you press any button at the bottom of the settings screen, it kicks you to email app and then you cant start the app ever again, just repeatedly crashes which forces you to reinstall. Pretty much if you want this app to work, you cant change any of the defualt settings...

Decent, but with a competing free app, Glucose should be better

Glucose accomplishes what its descriptions lists but is missing some key features and some insulins as well. Glucose would set itself apart with a screen to check averages of blood sugar entries, average insulin dosages entered in as well as average times for a nighttime insulin. These additions in the form of charts and customizable graphs would set Glucose apart. This functionality would be a great help for Type 1 diabetics with an in-depth analysis of blood sugar levels and medication trends because of the extensive monitoring they must do. Insulins which also need to be added are Novolog and Lantis. Also a reference chart which can be edited and customized to show how many units of insulin should be used for certain blood sugar levels as well as certain foods. Maybe even a "notes" screen to record diabetes specific notes into the application itself for reference. I hope these suggestions help and I can't wait to see an update.

Very useful for type 1

I haven't had the problems of other users. I have periodic crashes, but the main crash problems in some reviews were fixed by an update. What I love is that this app has ONE screen to enter glucose reading, insulin doses, and food/carbs/any other notes. Every other app that I tried required multiple screens to get all the info entered, which is annoying & time consuming. Also on other apps because of themultiple screen entry, the main screen data view is very clogged. With this app, the data viewing is very clean & simple. I can upload the data to google as a spreadsheet which my doctor can easily load/view/manipulate. She was very happy with the results! The only reason I didn't give it five stars were the periodic crashes & the fact that data charting isn't yet included (I think it is planned soon). Although the spreadsheet export does support making your own charts, it would be nice to get a simple graphical view of glucose numbers. The developer is also VERY responsive should you have any problems This app has made a HUGE difference in my dosing & glucose control!

You've gotta be kidding me ....

This app had great promise when I saw that you could input multiple data in the same entry, like glucose and bolus, instead of making separate entries for each. BUT, the app crashes so often. I tried changing some settings ... crash. I tried editing an entry ... crash. Withing five minutes of use, it probably crashed five to seven times. It has totally discouraged me from ever using it again. Also, there's no way to delete a single entry; you have to clear the entire list of entries if you want to get rid of just one.

Application crashes every time I try and use it. I have the latest iPhone OS. Don't know what else to say. I'd like my $1.00 back please-lol.
