I am not able to add items with a title/label and its nutritional values. The database is pretty much nonexistent. Every barcode I scan is not found in the database and unlike other apps, you cannot add it, which tells me the database will continue to fall short of other apps like fitness pal, Omada, heck, just about every other app I’ve used. If I enter an item’s nutritional info, o cannot label the item. I reached out to tech support and never heard back. This was a feature I expected to be there when I upgraded. While i can track my glucose levels, the substandard food database makes the app practically useless for me since I’m still having to use other apps to log my foods and those do not log my glucose levels. This app was a complete waste of money for me. I’m still searching for an app that has a great food database, tracks nutritional information I need, as well as my glucose levels. Still searching and out money for this app. Sad. ### 2/5 — Was good for a while *2026-06-27, version 5.442* For some reason the A1C average stopped calculating. I can never get in touch with customer support. I stopped my subscription because the app seems flawed. ### 2/5 — No Interface with Freestyle Libre? *2026-04-12, version 5.438* I can’t believe this product doesn’t interact with any other CGMs. Very disappointing. ### 2/5 — Not what it says it is *2026-03-30, version 5.438* I switched to this app specifically to be able to print my logs for my dr. I tried to print the first 2 weeks of this month and it WILL NOT let me unless I upgrade. Guess I’m switching to another app ### 2/5 — I like the app~ but… *2026-01-12, version 5.438* I can no longer print a report for my specialist. ### 5/5 — Excellent Product *2025-11-07, version 5.434* Awesome ### 3/5 — Good App *2025-10-20, version 5.430* But frustratingly enough it will not write blood pressures into apple health. ### 4/5 — Nice app *2025-10-04, version 5.430* Didn’t want to pay for more junk ### 2/5 — Will not use mmol *2025-09-19, version 5.430* I tried to evaluate this but since it will not use the standard in a lot of the world, mmols, it’s useless for I and anyone who doesn’t use the US standard. It’s a shame that even though there are two clear scales this app refuses to use the world BSL scale. (No response from the developer when I asked) ### 2/5 — Worked great until it didn’t. *2025-08-25, version 5.430* This is the second time the app has frozen. The first time I was able to access the Help- contact us. Then it had lost all my data, and it wouldn’t accept more. The company reached out to me, rescued the data and all worked well until this time. Now the app won’t open, just spins and spins. I can’t contact the company through the app. Perhaps they will see this and help again. But twice in 6 months is a bad track record. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Not Good *2026-08-15, version 5.444* I had this app for a long time. Changed phones and could not remember my password for the app. Tried EVERYTHING to reset the password but could not do it. Tried contacting support, followed instructions on the app and through the website - nothing worked- and couldn’t get any customer service support. Finally gave up and went with a different app. Very frustrating experience!! ### 1/5 — Glucose Buddy Diabetes Tracker *2026-07-02, version 5.442* App Does not work ### 1/5 — Lame *2026-06-26, version 5.442* Apps sucks when setting it up doesn’t work ### 1/5 — No Interface with Freestyle Libre? *2026-06-05, version 5.442* I can’t believe this product doesn’t interact with any other CGMs. Very disappointing. ### 1/5 — Impossible to cancel *2026-01-21, version 5.438* I signed up for this app and tried it, decided it wasn’t for me, and tried to cancel automatic renewal. Many efforts to contact Azumio have failed. No response. Just got billed and money pulled from my bank account again! Wound up filing a fraudulent transaction with my credit union and having to get a new debit card to prevent Azumio from accessing my bank account again. ### 1/5 — Impossible to cancel *2026-01-19, version 5.438* I signed up for this app and tried it, decided it wasn’t for me, and tried to cancel automatic renewal. Many efforts to contact Azumio have failed. No response. Just got billed and money pulled from my bank account again! Will contact FEDERAL Consumer Fraud Office for follow-up. ### 1/5 — Dishonest *2025-12-09, version 5.434* Free trial . I’m offered a one week free trial for the premium version, when I accepted it, they charged my bank account $42 right away and my bank alerted me and denied it and cancelled it right away but they still keep it active for when an opportunity comes to take my whenever I update my bank card. I filed a claim with my bank to prevent them from putting hands on my money. I will deinstall the app from my for goods even they will still be able to charge me. ### 1/5 — No customer support *2025-11-01, version 5.430* I’ve used the subscription version for years now everyday to track weight, blood sugar and blood pressure. Then about a month ago they updated the app. I opened it and tried to add a reading and the whole app closed without recording it. I thought I possibly let my subscription subside and sign up to renew. That didn’t work and then I paid twice! I’ve since emails to both the developer and company with zilch response. Not cool!! Avoid!! ### 1/5 — Not reliable *2025-08-27, version 5.430* Apps often stop responding, Can’t access Databases (gives Massage “Bad URL” and twice I have lost my entire historical data. ### 1/5 — Beware *2025-08-25, version 5.430* Before I could even check the ap out, I had to pay a $39.99 subscription. Then there was a prompt for one subscription after another. I just ate the money and cancelled. . ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Excellent for diabetes *2026-07-26, version 5.444* I’ve been using this app for about 5-6 yrs now. So excellent and easy to use tracks my insulin, Bp , blood sugar, carbs, calories and weight. I can email all my numbers directly to my diabetes provider. ### 5/5 — Great Tracking App *2026-07-25, version 5.444* I have used Glucose Buddy since I found it shortly after bing diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes in November 2014. This is the only tracker I have ever used and I’m very happy with it. ### 5/5 — Very easy to use *2026-05-18, version 5.442* This app has been very easy to learn to use. It covers all the stats I need to record plus some extra. Sadly my meter doesn’t have Bluetooth. I would like to be able to use that feature too! I will still be able to pull up trends for my doctor to see. Excellent app! ### 5/5 — I like it *2026-02-17, version 5.438* I like that it gives you options on the label for your log of blood sugar. ### 5/5 — Free version *2026-01-07* If free version is so good then paid would be much better but in Indian context the monthly price is too high ### 5/5 — Keeping Records *2026-01-07, version 5.438* Enjoying keeping records of weight and blood pressure. ### 5/5 — Truly helpful *2026-01-07, version 5.438* I have been using this for years. It helps me not only keep a check on my numbers but allows to show my donor quickly. Also, it has space to write extra notes. I usually keep blood pressure and weight. ### 5/5 — Works good *2025-11-11, version 5.434* For a majority of foods, the numbers have been helpful, but they need to review some submissions as there are foods listed with 2-3k carbs. ### 5/5 — Great Tool! *2025-11-10, version 5.434* I love Glucose Buddy! It has been a very helpful tool to manage my diabetes! I do wish that there was a feature to add journal entries to document doctor’s visits and what was discussed. I won’t have to use different apps bc it will all be in one place ### 5/5 — Great Aide in Tracking my Meds and Health Metrics *2025-11-08, version 5.434* I’ve used GB for a number years now. The Insught tool alllows me to see the results of my meds a testing across a large timeframe. And I have a list of my meds and dosages at my fingertips. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
