Fix a few items
Dario test device needs a stronger spring. I set it at 4 (the strongest setting) and it still won’t pierce my finger. I am using a standard blood glucose piercing device which works fine as an alternative. Dario app needs a couple of fixes. One is the meals in history doesn’t hold previous meals beyond a day or two. The app also needs more regional products in is barcode database. Finally, the app needs an auto rotate function so that users can see the full description of foods when you rotate phone from portrait to landscape view. Overall, I like the idea of the self contained test unit and the app. Just a bit more intuitive on the app side. Maybe Dario can use users food entries to creat a larger database.

Great device. Easy tests.
Device took about one week to be delivered. Device is relatively easy to use. Best thing about it is that the lancing can hardly be felt. Just try to make it the lowest penetration possible, and it hardly feels like a pinch. You can get enough blood out to work with the device, which isn’t that much and it stop bleeding immediately. Most times I have to pitch to get some blood out but the very limited amount is fine. Getting the test strip cartridges out is easy but a little cumbersome because they’re so super thin. When you have to replace the full cartridge, it can get stuck because it’s really tight, so you possibly need a plier. Otherwise, device is really good, the recording of the measurement is really good too. Not as clear about recording your food and making them combos, and/or changing the address of where the test is at on measurement screen which seems to be fixed to the wrong address, but it is good. Counselor calls you when you sign up, and as you start using it to discuss your situation if you go on the professional plan. My lowering of blood glucose levels given a change in diet, exercise, and use of another app to help with food GL loads has been substantial in just a week.Show lessNyrngr94
Good So Far, just wish they had an option for you to enter in pregnancy
I got the Dario monitor and app with the purpose of monitoring my blood sugar during pregnancy. The app is great for tracking and pretty easy to use (though finding my purchase history was a little confusing). However, there’s no way to tell it that I’m pregnant and therefore want to be gaining weight. I might not be their usual customer so I guess that’s fine, I can still use the blood sugar and blood pressure monitoring just fine, but it would be nice if there was that option.Show lessBlubberfish28
Great product, quality could be better
I love how convenient Dario is, the sleek, modern, all-in-one device that doesn't scream diabetes the second you see it. My only complaint after using it for a year, is that the quality is a little lacking. The cap for the strip compartment cracked within month of having the device, and recently the lancet launcher button broke, leaving me to buy a new one altogether. The needles are also much thinner, and bend easier than typical lancet. Fine for me, but can be a issue if you have thicker, calloused skin.Show lessStephaZoom
Love it
I LOVE GADGETS
I have been using this for about a month and i LOVE IT. What i love the most is how everything is all together in the palm of your hand. I don’t have to worry about pulling out a meter, bottle of test strips and the lancing device. I use to honesty not even take my sugar how i was suppose to because it was so much to do and pull out but with this it’s so easy and cool to use it makes it impossible to not check them. It will even remind you when it’s time to check your sugar. I don’t use all the features yet but day by day I’m learning to use it more. It’s amazing if your dr wants u to keep a log this app is the best u can even log if u did a workout how many carbs u had and how much insulin u took. I cant wait to order the the blood pressure monitoring system. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK GUYSShow lessMoniS313
Almost perfect
This is so compact and easy! My husband almost wishes he needed to check his BS so he could have this cool device, too! I say “almost perfect” because of the blasted lancets. If there was just a way to store them in the Dario, this would be perfect. But having said that, I bought Optima staples at an office supply store. They came in a small rectangular metal tin that is the PERFECT size for a layer of lancets with the Dario on top. That set up solves the lancet issue for now. I can line up 19 lancets and put 3 more perpendicular to those. Hope this helps someone else.Show lessk84man
Great unit
It’s compact and self contained. Just pop open the cover, start the program, insert the reader and use like any other. When it gives a result it asks for notes such as pre meal, fasting or whatever you want to say. It uses very little blood, less than my accucheck.
When I got it, I ran a few tests to check for precision and they were all within a couple of points. It reads lower than my accucheck but I always thought that ran high. I’ll compare it to lab results next time I go.
All in all, it’s an awesome little meter!Show lessDatsuntoy
Makes life easier
I was recently diagnosed with diabetes. I am bee busy and wanted a monitoring system that was small and compact but recorded my readings. This Dario is by far one of the best purchases I have ever made. It is so small and compact, but is packed with all the essentials needed to monitor and manage my blood sugar. The app helps me to stay on top of my overall health when’ll as it relates to diabetes. I am anxiously awaiting the 25 day mark because it states that the app has a function that calculates and averages the reading and gives an approximate A1c reading. Since using this Dario, I am motivated to make good food choices and exercise more regularly because it feels good to meet my daily goals. Anyway, I can’t say enough good things about the Dario and no... I am not working for Dario. I am just excited about how much more practical my life became after purchasing this system.Show lessGator Trader
Developer Response
We appreciate you taking the time to share your experience with us. We wish you good health and thank you for choosing Dario!!Decent app
This is a decent app and the service is great. Cost of test strips is low as well (huge benefit for me) but a few improvements to the app would be useful:
Firstly, displaying a count of test strips the app has recorded me using so I know if I am near the threshold for the automatic reordering. A general progress bar for this would be awesome. E.g x number of days predicted before order is automatically placed.
Second, remove the upgrade button in the app if I am already on a membership plan. Makes me think I am not on one which is disconcerting.
Third, perhaps some menu option to track deliveries?Show lessDOWmad
Amazingly good and very portable.
bei The convenience of this compact unit makes measuring and monitoring so easy ng consistent with measuring my glucose because of the portability of my “other machine.” Now that I have Dario I can easily carry the unit with me and it makes taking my glucose measurement fun and easy! I just love pulling out that little attachment and plugging it into my iPhone! So technically saavy for a 62+ yr old woman!!! I am working with my insurance company to get the strips and lancets covered. Lots of work through the medical insurance maze to get it done but this is the only machine that has ever inspired me to be diligent about measuring so its worth it!Show lessNotaNewsie
