User reviews

Twiist User - No Support

As a Twiist user, I was excited to use the app to seem more of my data. But, there is nothing including anything that would let me know what to expect. Very confusing. Is it supposed to work?

Worthless app and mobile site

Unfortunately, the Tidepool app and mobile site are completely worthless in connection to the Twiist pump. It’s a serious disappointment for this collaboration to be such a failure. You can’t use the app itself at all, and the mobile site has the bare minimum functionality so you can’t actually view any of your useful data. On top of that, the actual desktop website is extremely glitchy and doesn’t show an accurate portrayal of CGM readings so I cannot trust the data on there. I hope they mae changed soon bc this has been a major issue on this new pump.

Easy and effective. When you eat how you feel good notebook

Stale App - Bare Minimum Execution

App has gone stale and has not received any updates in a few years.

The app only allows for logging events and does not provide a way to view past glucose values like their online tool can. However their online tool can only be used on Windows and Mac computers - not mobile.

It would be nice if this app supported the same features as the web tool or at least provide an overview of time in range for past days.
