  • Diabetes Personal Management and Calculator

    This is very helpful app for day to day management of your diabetes. Even though you might be using different types of insulin to manage your diabetes.
  • Diabetes calculator

    This app is not what I needed. Need more detailed program. I just got it and will delete the app.
  • Exactly what I needed

    This app isn't the best for a "preloaded" food data base but it is AMAZING for plugging in blood sugar (high or low) and carbs and getting the correct needed amount of insulin OR CARBS IF YOU'RE LOW. Instead of blindly taking in 15 carbs when below 70mg/dL!!! It's awesome and I use it everyday and I've been type 1 for 8 years.

  • Calculator review

    I am diabetic and use calculators to determine my carb intake. This app has very few foods in it. Don’t bother Calorie King and Lose it and others have better, bigger databases. I want to delete it from my apps.
  • Well designed calculator! Great app!

    I downloaded this app since day 1, and it has helped me greatly. It's easy and convenient.
    I also downloaded Diabetes Manager to record and monitor my daily insulin usage and blood sugar.
    Diabetes Manage provides Bolus on Board calculation and references, so I can check on my calculation.
    Really great apps!

    This app is simple and intuitive, the developers must have done a lot of thinking to make it so easy to use.
    The food database has the food items I eat. I can just pick and add to my meals.
    I use mmol/l and I only need to enter my settings, this app does all the calculation automatically.
    Will definitely get Diabetes Manager.

  • Good, bit missing one very important thing

    I was happy to find this app. I have been using a spreadsheet to calculate my bolus doses (and was in the early stages of developing my own app) and it is not very convenient on my iPhone. This app is very close to what I had developed. However, it is missing one feature that could be very important and potentially dangerous if missed. There is no way of taking in to account your IOB (Insulin On Board). If your shots are very close together you could possibly overdose on your bolus.

    With so many different types of insulin out there I feel that this is a critical piece that is missing. Otherwise I would have rated this app higher. Get it added and this could be a five star app.

  • Excellent aid to control blood glucose

    I have taken large doses of insulin for 42 years, and have kept my HbA1c in range (latest 5.8% 39.4mmol/mol). The earlier version of Diabetes Personal Calculator program was excellent, but I asked the developer to add carbs needed to return to target and they added this feature. Now I can use the program to calculate how much insulin or carbs is needed to return to target. BRILLIANT!! No more overcompensating for low blood glucose.

  • DIABETES CALCULATOR

    A useful app, but you you need to know the right correction factors inserted to amke this work correctly for you. Food databases need to be more extensive, with more UK foods or possibly the option to add a custom foods

    despite the above I have used this app over a week & it has proved to be quite accurate in calculating your insulin dose.

  • Crap!

    Free in this case equals useless. Even a 1st grader program can program such better.
    - food database needs to be customizable
    - when you switch units, carb and correction ratios remain the same. Is it so hard to divide/multiply all values by 18??? This presents a significant danger to less attentive patient!
    - I can chose non-US units for glucose, that's nice, but why I have to be stuck with ounces and other archaic units?

  • Alright

    Needs improvements in the food database. Dupes need to be removed and non generic food labels should be added, ie carbs in a bowl of cheerios. Good otherwise.
