### 1/5 — App is terrible

*2023-10-21, version 3.5.0*

I purchased this app after starting to test my blood sugars as now type 2 diabetic and now find myself manually inputting the test results as this app is so poor.

I regret buying the viva check device now as wanted a good app to help me tackle my health issues

### 1/5 — Sign up is not working

*2023-07-26, version 3.4.3*

There’s a good start first impression is rubbish

### 1/5 — Unfit for purpose

*2023-07-15, version 3.4.3*

This app worked fine, if a bit clunky, but has now stopped working completely. Unusable.

### 1/5 — Wish I never bought this device

*2023-07-14, version 3.4.3*

The app has now lost all my data and will not sync with my device. No reason and was working two days ago until the update. Advice is “exception contact us”, tried to contact and got  “exception contact us”. As this is somewhere in China I doubt I will ever get this fixed. So fed up and angry, this has been nothing but trouble from day one.

### 1/5 — Disappointing

*2023-07-13, version 3.4.3*

I downloaded this and used it about a week and coming up with System Exception Please contact us. I have and no one has got back to me. I wouldn’t touch this app it’s crap to say the least

### 1/5 — Connectivity

*2023-05-04, version 3.3.4*

Unable to install country name (Scotland) only England. Not even UK   phone only lists 2 countries. can’t input +44

### 1/5 — Not user friendly

*2023-02-11, version 3.1.8*

This app is basic at best. Integration seems to be one way with the device meaning you have to set the device date and time before connecting. The app cannot connect to Apple Health. I cannot find a way to delete erroneous reading once uploaded to the app. A delete button in edit would have been great. The charts does not format correctly on an iPhone 13 Max Pro with the most recent results hidden on the chart until you force scroll to the right.

### 1/5 — New user

*2022-11-26, version 3.1.8*

Just bought this device as it was reasonably priced and I needed it quick.
When you are checking your blood you need it to be simple and quick! This is so complicated, you have to get the day and time on the unit before you first start! And that’s not easy. I can’t get it to connect to the blue tooth, so I’ll just use it without the app ! Sometimes it’s worth paying money for easy to use tech, like nexus….Very disappointed 🫤

### 1/5 — Total waste of time

*2026-01-04, version 3.6.6*

It is impossible even to register an account.

### 1/5 — Useless app

*2025-08-13, version 3.6.4*

Worst app ever is not even remembering from one minute to another the unit format. Nothing is good about this app. Is like it was made in 2005 and the developer forgot to update it to 2025

### 1/5 — Bad app

*2025-08-10, version 3.6.4*

Very slow and outdated app. Randomly would crash and lose all my saved info and records.

UPDATE; The app is not working for the third day in a row, same thing happened last month too, that time it re-worked after five days, I am not sure about this time how many days it would take. I will definitely will change my device to another brand.

### 1/5 — Apple health integration

*2025-08-05, version 3.6.4*

bring apple health integration so blood sugar readings syncing automatically

### 1/5 — Unable to log in

*2025-06-30, version 3.6.2*

Worst App ever. Tried to set up an account. 
Clearly not available for UAE.

### 1/5 — Lacks IOS Integration

*2025-04-11, version 3.6.1*

The developer seems to focus on language support, ignoring functionality improvements. Both updates in the past year were language updates.
The lack of iOS integration cripples this app for me. It has no support for Apple health nor capability to import glucose records.

### 1/5 — Porażka

*2025-03-25, version 3.6.0*

Ta aplikacja to porażka totalna. Nie da się odnowić hasła, nie można utwórzyć nowego konta.

### 1/5 — New

*2024-04-03, version 3.5.0*

Just downloaded, set up, went log in and app closes on iPad….why

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work after update my iPad

*2024-03-20, version 3.5.0*

It cannot open after my iPad updated !

### 1/5 — Stone Age app

*2024-01-07, version 3.5.0*

Is not too helpful this app. Is not syncing with any other health apps not even date or time. You need to insert everything manually. 
It shows the last reading and is not letting you overwrite info such as before or after a meal, it saves whatever it wants based on whatever God knows what info. 
It needs a lot of improving at this stage. I don’t know if the developers are interested or they just go with the flow. 
The other tests you can add such as urine or lactate apparently there are no testing systems for them so again you need to add them manually from other apps. 
We are in 2024 for God sake people do something more performant.

### 5/5 — add HealthKit support

*2025-01-06, version 3.6.0*

App is great, just add apple Healthkit support in it

### 5/5 — Ta wersja ok

*2019-08-13, version 3.0.3*

Polecam jest język i raporty takie jak trzeba.

### 4/5 — Bueno

*2023-05-26*

Mejorar el icono con el signo + que se utiliza para agregar manualmente cuando me olvido guardar o cuando el glucometro no se conecta al celular, sin Internet no funciona el app.
Cuando trato de presionar el +, en vez de agregar, se abre para editar la última data.

Actualización 26 mayo 2023:
Sale que la cuenta con gmail usado no existe, solo permite 2 códigos de países para ingresar con móvil.

### 4/5 — Bueno

### 4/5 — Does what it says

*2022-12-05, version 3.1.8*

Bluetooth & device setup is a tiny bit fiddly, but really is fine if you persist and read the instructions thoroughly, the previous reviewer  gave up a bit soon IMO, the kit worked well once setup in my use, app seems to work and receive data.

### 2/5 — App Currently Not Working

*2023-07-13, version 3.4.3*

Very awkward app that seemed to have slightly improved recently but has now stopped receiving any transmission from my phone. A fantastic way to track blood sugar WHEN IT WORKS.

### 2/5 — VivaGuard Eco Plus

*2023-07-12, version 3.4.3*

So many issues with this app. If you miss imputing a read you can’t put them in retrospectively, they go after your last imputed reading. It’s supposed to auto-connect to my phone. Did initially but after about 4 readings wouldn’t. I got a message saying contact the company. Didn’t say how so I just put them in manually now. Charts only show line graphs for 24 hours. If you go into history it’s all just tiny dots that don’t give accurate readable details and you can only go back a week. If this was a subscription app I’d have cancelled but as it’s a one-off payment (too expensive for the glitches that’s in it) I’m still using it, but also recording in a hard copy for my physician. 🤷🏼‍♀️ so actually didn’t need to pay the extra for the wireless monitor.🙇‍♀️ I have an I-phone 13. On a positive side there is a record that gives you your weekly average which is useful. Also you have to buy the lancets and test strips together. I dropped my test strips and had to buy a complete set to replace them, now I’m stuck with extra lancets. 😡

JUST AN UPDATE! 

Yet another “device exception” stopping me adding readings. I have to “contact manufacturer “ but they don’t say how.
