### 5/5 — Useful for diabetics

*2026-06-06, version 10.3*

I am a diabetic that is successful controlled with a GLP-1 drug.  I use this app for estimating A1C and graphs of blood sugar.  Coupled with a Bluetooth device, it is a fast way to track.

### 1/5 — Love

*2026-04-06, version 10.2*

My favorite app on my phone

### 5/5 — Optimale App

*2026-02-11*

Eigentlich kann ich mich allen die die App schon positiv bewertet haben nur anschließen . Empfelenswert!!!

### 1/5 — Paid version not working

*2025-10-29, version 9.8*

I bought two versions of this app, one for my iPhone and one for my Mac! It was working fine until it now thinks I only have the free version. I have reached 100 entries and it has stopped working! There is no way of contacting the developers for support as the button to ‘Restore Purchases’ doesn’t work! A complete waste of money unless I purchase it again and will that only work for 100 entries again!!!

### 4/5 — Kleine Mängel

*2025-09-10*

Da die Medikamentierungen fast täglich gleich sind, wäre es ein Vorteil eine Vorschlagsliste zu bekommen für morgens, mittags und abends. Es ist lästig es immer wieder alles neu zu tippen, ausser Bz-Werte.

**Developer response:** Sie können eigene Medikamentenlisten anlegen, welche sie dann laden können. Melden sie sich doch bei mir, falls sie Hilfe benötigen. Unter den Einstellungen in der App hat es dafür einen Feedback Knopf.

### 3/5 — My review

*2025-05-01, version 9.7*

I like this app but it is taking some time to get used to

### 5/5 — Love this app

*2025-04-29, version 9.7*

I’ve been using this app for about 5 yrs now. Absolutely love it. Easy to keep track of my sugars and blood pressure. When I’ve had my ac checked and compared it to the app it has been less than .5 off. My doctors love that I have the app and can show them a log of my sugars and blood pressure. I paid for the app, which I never do. It’s well worth it.

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2025-04-21, version 9.7*

I had an issue and the customer service I received was immediate and complete. I’ve had apps for literally years and I can’t recall customer service like that. The app has all I need for keeping track of my diabetic needs. I recommend this app.

### 4/5 — Kurzbefehle verfügbar

*2025-03-25*

Seit heute ist es endlich möglich, dass man die App auch per Kurzbefehle bedienen kann. Das ist eine Funktionalität, die ich mir schon immer gewünscht habe. Viele Einträge kann ich nun auf schnelle und einfache Art mitteilen. Ich finde es ganz wunderbar und bedanke mich recht herzlich, dass das nun möglich ist.

**Developer response:** Danke für das nette Feedback. Es war schon vorher möglich, aber leider etwas umständlicher. Darum wurde es überarbeitet. Schön das es gut ankommt.

### 5/5 — Excellent simple log

*2025-02-19, version 9.5*

I looked for and tried several apps but longed for just a basic but effective log book on my phone. I’ve now been using this for years and it works perfectly. Thank you so much. Make a complicated disease manageable.
