### 5/5 — My CGM data viewer of choice

*2026-09-04*

As a new user of a CGM, I was keen to see the data that it would provide about my daily diabetes ups and downs;and indeed there were immediate revelations which I was able to act upon.
But the way in which data was displayed in the CGM apps of the manufacturers (first Dexcom and then Libre) did seem to me to make it a bit of a chore to delve into it in a frictionless way to understand more about my diabetes.
When I tried Sugar Sense I immediately felt comfortable with the data presentation. 
At a glance I see what's happening right now with my numbers; and when I want it, it takes one Click to see a more in-depth data view, all on-screen without having to export or print, although those functions are available too.
Sugar Sense is now my first choice as a window to view my data and learn from it. 
Sugar Sense can connect to Libre and Dexcom and certain other CGMs (but their own link apps are needed too).
It also lets you see your current glucose number at a glance by placing an optional display on the phone’s lock screen: tap the phone screen and there’s the number. 
I can be out walking with my phone in my pocket and have Siri read out my number whenever I ask, direct to my in-ear hearing device. Or if my Watch was not such an old model I could display it on there through Sugar Sense’s own app.
It also connects to CarPlay and automatically displays my glucose number on that screen, so it is always available when I am driving.
Support from the developers is first class. I have had fast comprehensive and thoughtful email responses to my queries. Most impressively, when I reported what I thought was a false or anomalous nighttime low reading, Sugar Sense was quick to drill down into the data history around this reading and established that there was no bug of false reading and explain it all to me in an enlightening way.
A great app from a developer who is himself a T1 diabetic and understands the needs.

### 2/5 — Family Plan = READ ONLY

*2026-09-04*

Type 1 parents who's T1D warrior uses pens and a G7 : this app charges for read only family plans to acces the T1D's apple ID and G7 info. While it does have lots of cool widget and safety features, the biggest flaw is parents cant add doses to the log from their premium family member apps on their own phones, only the diabetics phone 🙄 guess the wait continues.

### 5/5 — Great App!

*2026-08-28*

This app has it all! Everything works perfect including the a”Live Activities” I highly recommend this for all diabetics!

**Developer response:** Thank you! Great to hear Live Activities are working perfectly for you, keeping your glucose right on the Lock Screen is one of our favorite parts too. More is on the way soon. If you ever need anything, we are at support@sugarsense.io.

### 5/5 — Best app

*2026-08-25*

Sugar Sense: CGM and A1C Tracker is a convenient app for keeping health information organized in one place. The interface is clean, simple, and easy to navigate, making it straightforward to review readings and track changes over time. I like how the information is presented clearly without feeling overwhelming. It can be useful for maintaining a consistent tracking routine and staying more aware of daily health trends and progress.

**Developer response:** Thank you for the kind words! Clear and calm is exactly what we aim for: your readings, trends and history in one place, easy to check at a glance without feeling overwhelming. Sugar Sense works with Libre, Dexcom and Nightscout, and you can also log readings manually or bring them in from Apple Health, so the same clean view fits almost any routine. A big update is on its way with even more. If you ever need anything, we are at support@sugarsense.io.

### 5/5 — It really helps

*2026-08-15*

Sugar Sense makes it really easy to keep an eye on glucose levels without constantly checking everything manually. I especially like the real-time alerts and predictive low warning, and the Apple Watch integration makes the information even more convenient to access. The family sharing feature is also a thoughtful touch for anyone who wants someone they trust to keep an eye on their readings.

**Developer response:** Thank you so much, Derek! Reviews like this mean a lot to our whole team. The predictive low warning and the Apple Watch app are the parts we have worked on the longest, so it is great to hear they make your daily routine easier. And family sharing exists because I live with type 1 myself and know the peace of mind it gives the people around us. If you ever have questions or ideas, we are always at support@sugarsense.io. Wishing you many steady days ahead!

### 5/5 — helpful in daily life

*2026-08-12*

Sugar Sense makes glucose monitoring feel much easier with real time readings, customizable alerts, and a clean interface that’s easy to check throughout the day. I especially like the predictive low alerts and Care Circle feature, which make it reassuring to stay on top of trends and keep family informed. The free core features offer a lot of value, and the overall experience feels thoughtfully designed for everyday CGM tracking.

**Developer response:** Thank you so much, Seni! Keeping the core free was a deliberate choice from day one: monitoring, alerts and Care Circle following should never sit behind a paywall, so it means a lot that the value comes through. And it is great to hear the predictive low alerts and the clean, glanceable design help you stay on top of trends and keep your family in the loop, that is exactly the everyday experience we are building for. If you ever have questions or ideas, we are always at support@sugarsense.io. Thank you for taking the time to write this!

### 5/5 — Very convent

*2026-08-12*

Sugar Sense makes it really easy to keep an eye on glucose levels without constantly checking everything manually. I especially like the real-time alerts and predictive low warning, and the Apple Watch integration makes the information even more convenient to access. The family sharing feature is also a thoughtful touch for anyone who wants someone they trust to keep an eye on their readings.

**Developer response:** Thank you so much, Pascal! Fewer manual checks is exactly the goal: our servers keep watching around the clock, so the alerts and the predictive low warning reach you without you having to open the app. Great to hear the Apple Watch makes everything even easier to glance at, and that family sharing feels reassuring, having someone you trust in the loop matters a lot. If you ever have questions or ideas, we are always at support@sugarsense.io. Wishing you many steady days ahead!

### 5/5 — Credible app

*2026-08-11*

Such an incredible app to track health especially sugar level, this app allows you to create your own logbook for its best tracking and also connect directly to your apple health making it quite easy to do it its main assignment by also setting up a reminder for the user. Haven’t heard or seen any tracking app as credible as this

**Developer response:** Thank you so much! Credible is a word we take very seriously: when an app deals with glucose, trust has to be earned every single day, so hearing this genuinely means a lot to our team. And it is great that the logbook, the Apple Health connection and the reminders have made daily tracking easier for you, keeping everything flowing together in one place is exactly what we are building for. If you ever have questions or ideas, we are always at support@sugarsense.io. Thank you for taking the time to share this!

I really appreciate how simple and user-friendly the app is, and the notifications are very helpful. It gives me more confidence and control in managing diabetes every day. I highly recommend Sugar Sense to anyone looking for a reliable and convenient diabetes management app!

**Developer response:** Thank you so much, this one is wonderful to read!
