This IS the best Diabetes app I have found yet!!!

I love this app! DiabetesPal has allowed me to document and track everything related to my type1 diabetes. When I have to lookup restaurant carbs I’ve eaten, I can store that info in this app with as much detail as I think I need, and quickly search for that info when I need it again. And I can spot patterns. I’ve used this app for over two years, and I’ve only had 1 issue with it after an app update and that was quickly corrected. I am concerned that I no longer see it listed in the App Store.

I do have 1 suggestion. I also have COPD, and regularly use an Oximeter to check my O2% (Oxygen) and PR (Pulse Rate). Would you consider adding those two fields to the Blood Pressure box?

Thank You soooo much for this app.

Find the H1C Estimate extremely useful

I have been using the App for 3 years. I enter my glucose readings every day. I find the App H1C estimate extremely useful and I found it to correlate with the Lab results.
The graphs are excellent. It may be useful to draw a linear regression line.

Great app

I have used the paid app for several years and would give it 10 stars if I could.
It is easy to use with lots of stats.

Response from developer

Thanks :-)

A1C estimates and average glucose are wrong sometimes

Wrong A1C estimates at loading screen and wrong average glucose line on the glucose graph, please fix the issues

So far

So far I like it. Nice and easy to use

Could be better.

The free version would be better if it allowed to record more than a couple of months of readings. At least four (4) months would be good because my doctor’s visits are usually every three (3) months.
Being able to show my doctor my readings for those three (3) months would be nice.

Great app

I’ve been using this Mac on macOS for some considerable time and have only just got an iPhone.This was the first app I downloaded and managed to sync it with the Mac giving me access to all my data all the time. The author is extremely helpful and customer service is first class and he always gets back to you within 24 hours of submitting a request for help. If you are diabetic and want to keep track of your blood sugars this is the perfect app.

Duplicates readings

Something happens in the last update. First the app freezes constantly and when it does run it duplicates or triples your reading. I have gone back 2 years 3 or 4 times now and deleted the duplicates but they keep coming back. Also there is a pop up that says there are duplicates but the app freezes and won’t remove them. There is no delete all so you can upload a backup either. I regret having paid money for this app

Response from developer

I am sorry to hear that you have issues. Please get in contact with me so we can solve your problem together. You can send a feedback to me right inside the app, in the settings tab wit the ‚Send feedback‘ button. I am sure we will be able to solve your issue that is probably unrelated to the app version. I did not hear back from you, so I assume you have been able to solve the issue? Otherwise get in contact with me.

Hard to read

I cannot easily read most of the text within this app. Type small and light in color.

Response from developer

Most of the screens support dynamic text. So if you increase the size of the fonts in the system settings, then also the screens in the app will have bigger fonts. Maybe this could help you.

Trouble

This app will not in sync with the Meter. Although it seems to have many tools to assist anyone with diabetes. Looks like I’m on my own again!
