Great App
Use it every day does what it says on the tin. Easy to use
Good App But….
I’ve been using this app for over a decade. My only gripe is they keep removing features or make them available only if you subscribe to their premium version. I know it’s in their business plan but sooner or later, I may have to look for another way to track my blood glucose levels.
Doesn’t work on my iPhone X
I downloaded app and purchased subscription as I wanted to use with my Dexcom G6. I set up my user info and etc. The app froze once I tried to link my G6. After that, it only opens to the glucose Buddy app’s opening screen and freezes there. I’ve deleted it and tried to reinstall a few times, but I can’t get passed the initial logo screen.

don’t update
I was fine using the app as it was without additional purchases. I have maintained an A1c below 7 most years only exceeding 7 4 times since 2014. However each time I update this app they
take away features I have had for free and now want me to pay for them. This was basically a decent app that they want to be a cash cow.
Recently I updated because the promo said that there was a improvement in the insights tab. Prior to the update I was tracking my glucose, weight, steps & blood pressure in INSIGHTS over multiple years. What lies. After updating the only thing I can see in INSIGHTS is previous glucose readings. All the other data that was available on my phone is no longer available. Further, the app no longer records my daily steps for me to see.
I do not see this as an improvement. I needed to get another app just to keep track of my steps.

App Was seriously Degraded in last Update
The lat update tremendously degraded the functionality of this application!! Previously, it was useful in tracking blood glucose and viewing trends. Now, it appears to have been turned into a sales vehicle for meters, strips, and coaching. Being n medicare, I have my supplies already covered. Why would I want to start paying twice fir them. Having been a user of this app foryears, I am very disappointed!! I will likely need tofi d another app that will allow me to do what this app previously did. What were you thinking??

Works Well but needs some added features
Glucose Buddy works well for tracking T2D but needs to have medication tracking with alarms per medication, refill alarms, and more integrations added to it including integrations with other sites to import data easier. Also the barcode scanner for food crashes the app a lot.
Disappointing updates
I have been using this app for more than 5 years but their latest update blocking the “insights” tab prevents me from seeing my historical A1C, blood pressure, weight and steps. I paid for access but they want more money after all these years. So this app is useless now. I am deleting. Company interested in profits only. Too bad.

The Best App for Diabetes
My diabetes is in control because of this app! It helps me track everything- blood sugar, carbs, medicines, blood pressure, weight, exercise and ketones. I could not keep track of everything without it!
Great, but!!
I really like this app, it’s helped me with my journey of getting off the insulin for my Type 2 diabetes. The only thing is, I have to use the Carb Manager app along with this one because neither app has everything I need. If this app would be able to inform you if the foods you’re wanting to buy was “Keto Friendly” like the Carb Manager, it would been a five Star for me.

Good app
Good app wish it would sync with my Fitbit inspire2. I use a dexcom g6 and it sync with the dexcom but it seems to be about 6 hours off from the live input from the dexcom.
Would like to see better integration between dexcom and Fitbit also I have used the freestyle LibreLink 14 day sensor and it does not sync with glucose buddy.
