Diabetes Manager enables the user to: 1. Create personal database of favorite foods and meals, brand-name foods, and restaurant meals. 2. Save carbohydrate intake, foods and meals consumed, insulin doses, bolus doses, blood glucose readings, and daily long acting insulin dose to a diary, from which reports can be viewed and be sent as email. 3. Input up to six different Carbs/Insulin ratios (also known as Carbohydrate Factor), for breakfast, morning snack or bolus, lunch, afternoon snack or bolus, dinner, and evening snack or bolus. 4. Select your blood glucose unit, mg/dL or mmol/L. 5. Set your target blood glucose and Correction Factor. 6. Calculate a pre-meal insulin dose based on your personal Carbs/Insulin ratio and Correction Factor, pre-meal and target blood glucose, and total carbohydrate value of your meal or snack. 7. Calculate a bolus insulin dose based on your blood glucose reading, target and personal Correction Factor. 8. Find and adjust the carbohydrate values, according to serving size and / or weight, of nearly 250 generic foods from a built-in database. 9. Input your own pre-calculated carb value for any meal. 10. Look up, retrieve, and add together carbohydrate values from the generic food list (plus any pre-calculated carb values you wish to add) to create the total carb value for your meal or snack, from which your pre-meal insulin dose will be calculated. Important: Diabetes Manager must only be used as a guide and on the advice of your physician. Data Persistence You must click the Save button on the upper right corner to save the data you enter for each meal and for long acting. If you don’t click the Save button, the (new) data you enter for the meal/long acting will be cleared or refreshed with the previously saved data when you leave the meal/long acting view. After you save the data to the diary database, they can be viewed as reports and sent as email. You can email the reports to your computer for backup and clear the diary database on a regular basis. ## Key features - Insulin dose calculation - Carbohydrate database - Favorites and custom food entries - Daily diary and reporting - Blood glucose tracking - A1C and eAG conversion ## Recent user reviews (10 of 11) All indexed reviews: https://appshunter.io/ios/app/diabetes-manager/id368455341/reviews.md ### 4/5 — Exercise *2018-11-16, version 3.2* Finally upgraded to the paid for version. Wish it had a way to record exercise. ### 5/5 — Excellent diabetic insulin calculator *2015-02-14, version 3.1* I have only started using it but is very powerful the carb calculator could have more foods but that is available elsewhere ### 4/5 — Good for the price *2011-07-12, version 1.3* This is a handy app to have. I love that it keeps track of insulin on board. Haven't found other apps that do the same. Drawbacks would be: 1. Not enough room to input all the little snacks and lows my little 3 yr old has. 2. Only 1 long-acting insulin can be added for a day ( we do 2 small shots a day). This is very minor concern to us though. 3. Only 1 possible target BG. 4. No graphs It's a super easy user friendly app that helps us with day to day life. Thumbs up! ### 3/5 — Good-but could be better (v1.3) *2011-06-10, version 1.3* I am a type II insulin using diabetic so a lot of my needs are met by this app as well. Like another reviewer, I also can test more in a day than the entries allotted, especially when I am ill. So I would like to see the ability to enter additional BGl levels independent of meals. A time column would also be essential for me. It is also very useful to be able to see a graph of my BGl over a period of time - I know that my doctor used to like it when I would bring a graph (from a previous PC pgm) with me for my office visit. It would be great if I could just show the results to him on my iPod Touch! All in all, a good app that takes some of the hassle out of my routine but still needs some essential upgrades. ### 5/5 — Wow! Taking the math out of diabetes management *2010-10-02* What an amazing tool! Well worth the $4.99! This app parallels the Bolus Wizard in the Minimed insulin pumps! + Takes the math out of dosing + Keeps accurate logs in one simple device + Helps to achieve more results within target + Helps to reduce hypos After nearly 20 years with type one, I am now off the roller coaster which adds up to more energy, enhanced well-being, less stress and less guilt (for not maintaining records) on the emotional side. In future enhancements, it would be nice if the app could program different target blood sugars for different times of the day; factor in insulin on board; report on averages for time of day without having to mess around with Microsoft Excel; provide options for exercise ratios (perhaps low, medium, high intensity); and allow for more than one entry per time of day. ### 5/5 — My favourite app *2010-08-27* Great job on the update guys, with the addition of the note ability, this is now my favourite app for tracking my levels and insulin. Keep up the great work and congratulations on a great app;) ### 5/5 — Excellent *2010-08-26* A great app. The database is quite well stocked already but being able to add your own makes it very useful. I use an Insulin pump and the dose calculator makes life so much easier for me. The support is excellent too. Had a few problems with it crashing to start with but an email to manufacturers soon sorted it. They even took note of my request for extra features and let me know personally when they'd added them! Well worth the money. ### 5/5 — Can *2010-08-01, version 0* Love this app, it has everything I need except for time. I can't wait until that is added. I eat as varying times and need the times to prevent stacking insulin. ### 5/5 — A great app for daily use! *2010-07-13, version 0* Thanks for the update, right in time for my iOS4. Works really great. I am type I and I only care about the carbs. There are 3 meal and 3 snack entries plus long acting, plenty for my measurement. The best of this app is that it covers exactly the needs, simple and straightforward. 1.0 Finally a great app I can create my own favorites database and use it regularly and quickly. The reports are of great help, I can see what I eat affect my BG, and I can save & see my daily BG, carbs, and insulin records. I can also email the reports to my computer and to my doctor. Very handy app with bolus, insulin & carbs calculation! Great video demo too! ### 2/5 — Not enough function for the price *2010-07-11, version 0* Well, it's okay, but there is no time field for each record, and only 5 labeled record types. I monitor my BG much more frequently than 5x a day. The food database is easy to use and it's easy to add foods to it, but you can only add carb info --- no fat or protein. I was hoping for a more comprehensive insulin and BG diary. Not worth the price for my needs. ## Frequently asked questions about Diabetes Manager ### What is Diabetes Manager?
