### 5/5 — Is this app being discontinued?

*2026-01-21, version 2.7.2*

Update: I was able to reach them and it’s not being discontinued! There’s one in another country with the same name that is. I used the app and it was really great! I highly recommend it. 

I read online that this app is being discontinued after I signed up and paid for the subscription. Is it going to suddenly stop working after I’ve paid for it? I get noreplies to my emails to support.

### 1/5 — Is this app being discontinued?

*2025-08-11, version 2.7.2*

I read online that this app is being discontinued after I signed up and paid for the subscription. Is it going to suddenly stop working after I’ve paid for it? I get not replies to my emails to support.

### 5/5 — Everyone injecting insulin needs this!

*2025-04-17*

I downloaded the trial two nights ago, and in 36 hours, I can tell my BF management has improved. I love the coach tips, and the BG predictive tool. Now I can see what my choices now can result in later, and make better decisions. I can also drill into why the results are different from the predictions. I usually will ride out a trial, and even if I subscribe, I’ll wait till the last possible minute. However, with this, I’m seeing so much value in subscribing now because of the very valuable tools in the paid version. Usually I think paying for a free app is a ruse, but in this case, I feel it’s so valuable I can’t wait to do it. What a great tool! I don’t know where this has been during my journey with LADA, but man, am I excited about this.

### 3/5 — Great app but outdated

*2025-04-15*

It could be a great app but very outdated, I haven’t found an app that is as good at working out your cab ratios as this does and gives you recommendations but it’s too outdated for me so I stopped paying for it and switched to another app which is not as good but at least it gets updated. If it got updated I would definitely switch back also the Libra link is amazing.

### 3/5 — Overdue for an update

*2025-03-25*

This app does a decent job however, for a paid app (and a pricey one at that) this is in serious need of an update. The graph is very small and difficult to read or navigate and the user interface is very clunky with too many settings and features handled via a website rather than in-app. 

This has a lot of promise but the app’s design and user experience does not live up to its potential. Great things could be done with a simple clean redesign, utilising widgets and an Apple Watch app but, with no updates from the developer for over two years, I do not hold much hope for any improvement.

### 1/5 — Could not log in

*2025-03-19, version 2.7.2*

Signed up for app and would not let me log in after doing so.

### 1/5 — The buggiest

*2024-12-15*

I’ve used this for over a year as it met most of my needs.  It costs if you want certain features but they aren’t mostly necessary.  DO NOT PAY FOR THIS APP.  The bugs are insane.  I’ve had to uninstall reinstall as it gets stuck on the “get started” page over and over.  Occasionally a logout login helps.  I’ve lost months of data as it decided to not sync online.

### 1/5 — Broken promises

*2024-11-13*

Even though you give them proper credit cards for billing, they will turn off your application just for no reason without even a warning first.  It’s best to not have this at all. Just stops when you need it most.   Do not seem to be concerned about customer support.

### 1/5 — Inaccurate predictions

*2024-09-16*

Newly diagnosed with Type 1 I hoped this app would help me improve my bolus doses. After a week of meticulously recording all my food and doses, the predictions were still a lot worse than my own rough guesses. The app frequently predicted hypos when I was actually trending hyper.

### 3/5 — So much promise but so many issues

*2024-09-11*

I really needed a good IOB app and Jade seemed like a good one to try. It has promise but there are sooo many issues; constant email and in-app spamming, features that don’t work (notably several under the user profile, which the app constantly nags you to update), ongoing email spam, integrations like with LoseIt that aren’t reliable, etc. I can’t even log in to the web site properly and get this - the developer charges you to reset your own password! 

If the app were free or very low cost, I might pay for it in hopes that it would improve, but the developer is IMO gouging diabetics for the yearly plan price, especially given the many issues with the website and app.

BTW - put in a support request 2 days ago (after I paid to reset my password which still didn’t allow logins) and haven’t heard back. But I DID get multiple Lisa-bot emails asking me to pay up for a subscription. Cool…
