### 5/5 — My pediatrician turned me on to this!

*2026-03-31*

I've tried other glucose tracking apps and they all felt like they were made for type 2 diabetes, not for pregnancy. This one is designed specifically for gestational diabetes and it shows. The meal photo feature is a game changer — no more typing every ingredient into a search bar. Just take a picture and go. Love it.

**Developer response:** This means so much to us — gestational diabetes deserves its own dedicated app, and we're glad Glow Glucose is making meal tracking easier for you. Wishing you all the best with your pregnancy!

### 5/5 — Makes gestational diabetes so much easier

*2026-03-30*

Really well-designed app for managing gestational diabetes.  Logging meals is simple and intuitive and the AI meal analysis option is a quick way to record your carb counts using just your phone. The post-meal glucose reminders come through as alarms so they’re hard to miss, even when I’m busy. They also show up on my Apple Watch, which makes it really easy to stay on top of my  testing schedule. I also find the glucose trend charts helpful when I want to view my weekly levels at a glance so I can plan my future meals accordingly. 
This app has been a game changer for me and I highly recommend it.

**Developer response:** What an incredible review — thank you for taking the time to write this! We're so glad the glucose reminders are working well on your Apple Watch — staying on top of post-meal testing is so important, and we wanted to make sure those reminders actually cut through the noise. And it's great to hear the trend charts are helping you plan ahead. That's exactly the kind of proactive management we designed them for. So happy Glow Glucose is making a difference for you!

This update fixes a bug that could show the subscription screen to subscribers whose plan had already renewed. Active subscriptions now stay active — no interruptions.

### 1.1.0 — 2026-04-28

We've been polishing the parts of Glow Glucose you use every day:
                                                                                
  • Richer nutrition facts — Ingredient and meal detail screens now show a fuller breakdown of macros and micros, so you can see exactly what's on your  
  plate.                                                                        
                                                            
  • Clearer serving sizes — Serving units now display their weight (e.g. "1 cup (240 g)") so you can match the label on the package without guessing.
                                                                                
  • Smarter fasting reminders — Already logged your fasting blood sugar? We'll skip today's morning reminder. Delete it before the reminder fires and we'll
  restore it.                                                                   
                                                            
  • Faster, smoother food search — Search results are quicker to settle, and switching searches no longer leaves stale results lingering on screen.
                                                                                
  • Better barcode scanning — Scanning an unknown product now shows a clean "not found" message instead of an error.
                                                                                
  • More reliable serving info — Resolved a case where serving sizes occasionally failed to load on first lookup.
