So easy to use

This app has made my gestational diabetes diagnosis so much easier to manage. I appreciate the carb counter option! This app makes it so easy to send the results to my doctor weekly for monitoring! 10/10 recommend.

Excellent for tracking gestational diabetes

Articles also helpfully and reassuring

Keeps me on track!

I have used this app for both of my pregnancies once I was diagnosed with gestational diabetes. It is helpful to have it in one place and not have to keep track of a paper log. I also enjoy the upgrade they did to add text reminders and being able to export my numbers to my doctor. If you want an app to help with insight and keeping it all in one place, this is the app for you.

Buena aplicación

Me a ayudado mucho en mi diabetes gestacional

Amazing app!!

I was diagnosed with gestational diabetes at 30 weeks. I had a rough idea on what to do but wasn’t 100% sure. Malama has made this journey SOOOOOO easy!!🙌🏻 I truly do not have any downsides to bring up. The tracking and sharing abilities are top notch. I love the advice/encouragement it gives after every meal and blood draw. My doctor even wrote the name of the app down the other day to recommend to her other patients because she loved the summaries so much!!

Keep up the amazing work on the app and I will be sure to tell all my GD mama friends about it!!

Fantastic tool, couldn’t have done it without this app

I’m at the tail end of my 6(!) months with GD and I really couldn’t have done it without Malama. As someone with very minimal health issues I’d never had to track or test anything like this before and the prospect was very overwhelming. I found this from a google search—even my doctor hadn’t heard of it—and the practical tools + education made it so invaluable as I found my footing. One of the doctors I see asked if I was an engineer because he’d never seen someone’s numbers so organized, all thanks to the export feature… I genuinely cannot believe this is free, it is such a helpful tool and I couldn’t recommend it more strongly!

Malama app

Super helpful during my pregnancy gave amazing information only had an issue one day out of the 5 months I used it

Easy to use

I like that you can take pictures of your food as well as log in the details AI doesn’t see. The graphs are insightful too. I used it for a week instead of the one-time GB test. With all the blood sugar talk online, I was curious to have a deeper look into my blood sugar levels. Thankfully, I do not have GB.

The best tool!

During a time that can be scary and you are learning as you go, this tool is sooo helpful to keep you on track and remind you to test!

Lifesaver!

This app has been such a lifesaver when it comes to testing and keeping track of my numbers. I love the feature of creating a log to send to my doctor every week. It makes it so convenient. I’ve even had my dietitian and nurse ask about this app. I highly recommend it.

Game changer

When I was diagnosed with GDM I was freaking out about how I would track everything, and know what to eat…all on top of remembering when to test! Whew! Malama has made the transition much smoother for me, and I love that it has insights to remind you what worked/might work for meals. The text reminders have been super helpful because I am a mom of two already and can be forgetful when I get busy. I love that I can share the progress and information easily in a PDF with my provider as needed.

This app saved my sanity

I cannot say enough good things about this app. When I found out at 18 weeks I had GD I was so lost about how I was going to track and remember everything. But my friend suggested I look for an app and I found this one. I love how easy it is, the text reminders to check my sugar, the AI insights, and the way I can easily pull my numbers to send to my doctor. I will recommend this to anyone who will listen. I told my doctor so he can share with other patients! Thank you for creating this amazing app!

Awesome App

More helpful than anything else for GD! Life changing

Must have

I love this app for tracking my CBGs. I appreciate that I can take pictures of my food and get real time tips on how to adjust my meals or just be reassured I’m on the right track. I’m Canadian so I can’t use all the other features but that doesn’t matter at all to me. So worth a spot on my phone!

Amazing App!!!

Being diagnosed with GD was so discouraging and I felt very overwhelmed. Malama has changed that for me and has everything I need to be successful in managing GD. I feel like I’m in control again, and the real time feedback on meals and food is so helpful. I feel supported by the app, haha, and the fact that I don’t have to pay for it is astonishing. I’m pursuing getting a CGM and it seems like Malama will be able to help with that too. The videos are also helpful, and the app is easy to use.

Overall good with one issue

It does not mark 6.7 as high even 2hours post meal max range is set at 6.6

This app saved me. Thank you!

From the bottom of my heart, thank you for creating this app. It keep me and Baby safe. I felt in control and more knowledgeable about gestational diabetes. It made an awful diagnosis manageable.

Amazing app

This app is so convenient and I email the report directly to my provider, much better than filling out a log by hand

Worked for 1 day

App doesn’t load or save results. I’ve uninstalled and reinstalled several times and no luck. My doctor wants me to use it but I can’t get any of the data to save if it does actually load (which is rare).

Great for GD

Really nice app, super helpful for GD. Couldn’t have made it thru pregnancy without it. Definitely recommend. Allows you to snap pics of your food and it sends reminders that r very helpful. Also provides summaries so you can see how well you’re doing!
