Glucose Buddy Diabetes Tracker for Negative User Reviews
✓ Extremely DissatisfiedI purchased this app 3 years ago and since the last upgrade I am being bombarded by ads. I paid for the app to not get ads! I can’t get a graph like I used to unless I now pay more money. Come on guys, lift your game!.Version: 5.182
✓ This app was greatI loved this app before they changed to the subscription model a few months back. There are so many things you used to be able to do that aren’t available, even small things like using a custom label instead of before/after a meal. And now in order to share your graphs with your doctor you can only go back two weeks and you have to print it out vs email it. It’s a real shame not to be able to afford an app that used to be an asset to my medical care. I would have been able to use this app had there been a one time purchase price, but I can’t justify adding another monthly automatic charge just to log my glucose levels. I used to hype this app to everyone I knew with diabetes. Even my doctor was impressed, although I had to explain what happened when I could no longer send her my full detailed data via the health portal. Now I tell everyone about the app, explain how the developers forced a subscription model on users, and use it as an example of how patients suffer when profiting from their diseases becomes the goal. I wish I had never trusted this developer with my data. Now it’s locked away and I had to start over again with another app..Version: 5.130
✓ Beware chargesThere is a free version, but when you install it will automatically subscribe you to the full premium version and charge you £40 at a later date without your consent..Version: 5.326
✓ Lacks informationI really want to use this app for the information that I want to keep track of, but the time of recording is wrong most of the time. I purchased a years subscription and not sure that the subscription is worth it. I am not able to see all the “view” information, like sugars etc. this is what I’m tracking, besides carbs, but can’t view that other info. The only thing it shows on the tracker is carbs, as far as food is concerned. I feel that it needs improvement for the cost of it..Version: 5.334
✓ Needs improvingI need to send my BG readings to my doctor via email and this app doesn't have that ability. Also it needs to be able to work In metric as well as imperial for the food intake section. Other than that it does what other apps do..Version: 3.6.5
✓ Shocking upgradeGlucose buddy has been my recorder of choice for nearly 10 years. Had the Pro version. Suddenly stopped updating without notice. Used app to send support request and got no response. Latest update is a complete disaster. Almost no usable area left on the screen (iPhone 4s). Parts blocked by pointless orange message saying location services are off (so what) Can't get any graphs. The menu for adding a new log entry looks pretty but parts of it are off the screen; have to guess what the icons are. The pro version is now by subscription instead of the one-time purchase I had been using. I now have to find a replacement app the just simply captures BGLs and BP. Very disappointed at needing to change..Version: 5.124
✓ Sorry, but it does too much.I’m leaving Glucose Buddy because it has become a hovering nanny that needs to be paid to leave me alone to simply record my blood sugar. I brought my levels down for two years, but an illness and steroids shot it back up. I need to track for at least a month - just glucose, not food, exercise, contact friends, post on social media - and this hovering/selfie-ad infested app just doesn’t do it. If a nanny is needed, this app will fill the bill and for just a few dollars a month all the things I don’t need/want are available..Version: 5.142
✓ Feedback Review because Support Page “Not Found” through link1. My steps do not sync with my watch and are off by over 1,200-1,500 everyday. The rest syncs perfectly. 2. Quick Add will not allow me to enter Carbs nor will it allow me to save without adding Carbs. For example I had black coffee that couldn’t be found in the Search. I opted for Quick Add and manually entered the information. It was 0 carbs per the info online (barcode unavailable). I entered 0. I went to save and an error popped up to enter carbs. I entered 0 again. Same message. I tried entering 1 to move on and it would not allow me to enter any number other than the 0 that was not accepted either..Version: 5.226
✓ Was a Greap App. This update is garbage.I've used GB for almost 10 years. The graph version was the best. This latest version is useless. I don't have any use for an "average" from my one touch meter with no ability to explain a high or low reading. Change it or I will have to get a different app that meets my needs..Version: 5.168
✓ Modify portionsI am not sure whether I am missing something but I can’t work out how to modify weight / portions (e.g. with oats it has to be 1 cup, 100g, 1g or 1oz) this seems a bit limited?.Version: 5.188
✓ Ok BUT and moreThey seem to have a relationship with deacon. There are many who use other... Abbott Freestyle Libre ready glucose frequently and has an app that will read them. Obviously this data could be accessed. You would then not have to test and then open up GB and enter the data It’s the age of technology. Come on. If it could I would consider using the full version. Common, does no one read this or feedback ????? Could you please setup food search so you can search by provider please. I search for something. To be accurate and go through page after page after page. Starbucks/Tim Hortons/Sonic etc are all interspersed among hundreds. Please make it easier to log food. Exercise; obviously diabetic but there is nothing related to strength training. I do both cardio & strength but have to make up something. ITS NOT THAT HARD. Pleasr While it’s basics are ok/good 1)- I’m Canadian and it’s Pro is atrociously priced. $49US/year is $65 and if everything else worked well then maybe BUT. Why would I want to pSy that much for something that’s SUPPOSED TO HELP YOU. Now the food function is off the wall painful. Fuzzy search gets you who knows what but seldomly what you want and you scroll through page after page. Should be able to search for both item and supplier to make searching easier. Activities don’t include strength training. Manual entry is painful. Location can’t find some places even if you are there. For something that’s designed to make money, it’s ok but requires intense activity and time to maintain and isn’t supportive to diabetics. I have Abbott FreeStyle Libre but Glucose Buddy won’t read it either by connectivity or link to sensor or through computer connection BUT I believe has affiliations..Version: 5.222
✓ Premium version still includes adsI would have given this app 5 stars if it only tracked my numbers. But it constantly nags you to add additional services to your account, and continues to throw ads in your face. I’ve used the app for the past 3 years and I’m getting more and more annoyed with it. I don’t remember exactly what it costs, something like $30 per year. But for that kind of money, you would think that you would receive an ad free version. Today it wanted to sell me a scale..Version: 5.296
✓ Not a great choice for those that are trying to manage a diabetic lifestyleSo it’s advertised as free but doesn’t really give you any worthwhile assistance unless you go premium, I won’t be keeping this app for that reason alone, other apps give a lot more info without spending any money as a type 1 diabetic I need more than just the basics to be able to evaluate weather it’s worth going premium the carb tracker is a must for me. Won’t be bothering with this one again..Version: 5.162
✓ There is a Big Difference Between Paying for Something of that is Well Made & Being ExtortedI couldn’t agree with MommaHippi more. This app used to be something special. Something I would have paid for because it was worth it back then. But I wasn’t asked. I wasn’t warned. The app was just suddenly changed, and I discovered that if I wanted my information I would be charged a substantially large fee for it. I’ve given the new app a chance, but find myself becoming upset when I try to use it. Now it’s just like all the other apps that do the same thing - but the interface is ugly and confusing. Developers do this to themselves and their customers a lot these days. It must be profitable. I’m going back to paper and pencil. PS - I don’t recall my user name being “usually pretty frazzled”..Version: 5.146
✓ Dangerous, buggy, annoyingThis app does NOT integrate with Dexcom in any way. The connection screen shows that Dexcom has disabled their relationship or that it never existed. The app has some serious validation issues that make it extremely unlikely it is competent and regulated to connect to the named blood test meters, or anything else. The app hits you with 5 very expensive upsells before you even have a chance to use it. Uninstalled and moved on.Version: 5.394
✓ Glucose Buddy no longer compatible with iOSI installed this app because it's one of the few that shows Canadian BG readings not just American. But in recent months I'm getting error messages from Apple saying the app is slowing down my iPhone and is no longer compatible with the latest version of iOS. The developer has made no efforts to update Glucose Buddy to ensure it's compatible with iOS. Guess you don't care about your app being used by Apple clients? 😡.Version: 3.7.0
✓ Too many adsI downloaded this then deleted straight away impossible to use due to ads.Version: 5.248
✓ Poor updateI have used the previous version of this app for over a year and found the interface easy to use. I would rate it a solid 4. Then someone in their infinite wisdom decided to overhaul the whole program. What a mistake. The new interface is difficult to use and traps you in the add that tries to push you into buying the upgrade. Backing out is not easy.looking for a new app now. If they wanted to bring out a new app they should have done so and left the original alone..Version: 5.122
✓ Ads make it worthlessThe app has a lot of decent features. The interface is cluttered to the point it’s hard to use and hard to find things. The reporting aspect of the app is poorly done, and that’s the most important part. In the free version, the ads after a day become so obnoxious that it’s fundamentally unusable. Full screen ads with the volume forced to 100% that offends everyone in the room. If you purchase this app you are funding a company that cares about monetizing the app far more than providing a good user experience. A premium subscription is VERY expensive, and honestly provides only a few real benefits, outside of removing the ads. I will look at EVERY alternative in the App Store before I feed this marketing tactic. There is a “plus” version with a one time app purchase that likely removes some ads, but there is no clear statement of any difference so the only way to know is to buy it and find out. If you read enough review responses, you will learn if you buy that version you simply get another nagging form of encouragement to buy the expensive subscription. What this app provides is worth no where close to what the premium version provides..Version: 5.180
✓ It made no senseThe app was hard to read. The log and settings made no sense. I went to add food and it led directly to weight goal target setting. I thought the app would take insulin settings and advise a dose after you enter BG and carbs - but it doesn’t. Totally confused by what this app actually does..Version: 5.162
✓ Tons of adsThe app is unusable there are so many ads.Version: 5.344
✓ I Used To Love This AppI have used Glucose Buddy for several years and loved it! It was so helpful to me, that I shared it with my diabetic health care team, in hopes they could let other patients no how it helped me. That is no longer the case! Version 5 of Glucose Buddy was released during the fall of 2017 and the App (in my opinion) was ruined. First, the data entry screen no longer fits on the screen of my mobile device. Some of the selections are barely visible. Second are the incessant and annoying pop-up ads that make viewing the App’s screens very difficult. Finally are the high pressure ads to subscribe to the premium version of Glucose Buddy for a fee of $60 per year. Many of the most helpful features of Glucose Buddy are only available with a premium subscription, which I’m unwilling to pay. If you ignore the reviews of the pre-version 5 Glucose Buddy you can see the ratings drop from 4 & 5 stars to 1, 2 & 3 stars. (check for your self) I can no longer recommend Glucose Buddy to others..Version: 5.128
✓ GlitchI have my ReliOn Premium BLU meter linked to my app. The time settings are correct in the app and on my iPhone, yet when ever I take a reading, it transmits via Bluetooth with a time stamp 6 hours earlier than the actual time. I have to manually correct the time for every reading I take. Very frustrating. When I tried to report the issue on the app an error pops up saying that it can’t send emails and to check my settings. So I am having a hard time getting any support. Does anyone know of another app that I can link my meter to and also record daily medication and things like weight, diet? I’m open to suggestions. Thanks..Version: 5.332
✓ Keith SmithThis used to be a great app, now it is terrible. New format & layout is no where near as clear. I used to look at the progression graph & was able to see at a glance how my blood glucose was going. Now it is very difficult to tell what is happening. Was 5 star now 1 star. Hate it now..Version: 5.122
✓ More than I need or wantI’ve used this app for quite awhile. It had a straightforward interface and feature set. The recent major upgrade of this app brought with it a lot of additional features, a major overhaul of the UI and sharing functionalities. All I need is an app that lets me record my blood glucose. I can’t imagine why I would ever share that with anyone! I don’t find the new overcomplicated UI to be an improvement either. The continued pop-ups asked how I like the app are really annoying, as are the overemphasized messages complaining that I don’t have location or sharing enabled. So, I’ve switched to an app that is simple and uncluttered with a swollen feature set. Sorry this app got so “improved”..Version: 5.124
✓ OK but user interface is terribleThe app is great overall. They use a data collection strategy to get users hooked on the practicality of the product. Then when you try to use advanced features or download the data you entered, you have to pay for it. So I guess that works pretty well for them... Then there’s the user interface, with “features” such as clicking on one item (food) to enter some data, but SURPRISE, when you searched and clicked on hummus, you are now entering carbs for cereal bars. Note, this is what they call in developer land “a UI error to be fixed in beta testing”. But oh well, once you navigate around the other “nuances” the thing works pretty well I guess. Much better than comparable products, but please pay your dev team, QA their work and give them and the UX UI designers time to get it right..Version: 5.224
✓ Pricey Subscription for Features that Lock UpOverall, this app is crucial to me for tracking foods and blood glucose. The issues, though are frustrating. I find the app locking up in various features. I chose to pay for the monthly subscription so that I could utilize more tools that would benefit me most (more recipes instead of maximum of 5, quick add foods, filter searching). I am disappointed by the number of bugs that freeze the app, namely attempting to filter my Log to only display Blood Glucose. Considering I paid specifically hoping to use that feature, I would like to be able to use it!!!.Version: 5.248
✓ Medication Frequency and Can’t Pair Dexcom G6It would be helpful if you could add weekly to the frequency for medication. I have two diabetic medications that are taken weekly, not once or more per day. I’ve tried multiple times to pair my Dexcom with Glucose Buddy only to become increasingly frustrated. The app says it pairs easily with CGMs, so I’m not sure what the issue is. I’ve followed Glucose Buddy’s self help to no avail. When I select Dexcom in Glucose Buddy’s app I receive the following error, including after following the “helpful tips”, “ The client application is not known or is not authorized.” Part of the appeal of Glucose Buddy was that I could sync my Dexcom. My Dexcom is synced with Health, but Health only updates my Dexcom data every three hours. Posting my glucose every three hours is ineffective and minimizes the usefulness of Glucose Buddy..Version: 5.394
✓ Free download onlyThis has charges once you have installed so I deleted it. Would rather know before it is installed that there are charges..Version: 5.168
✓ DO NOT UPDATE!ALL comments to latest version are negative. The old version was great, this new version is not good Why don't you allow to go back to the one everyone liked?.Version: 5.134
✓ RubbishWhy because it froze on my Ipad.Version: 5.134
✓ Geof BarringtonThis app looks really good but I found this way too complicated to use and there are no proper instructions. I wanted it as an alternative to ibgstar which has been discontinued and can’t be downloaded to my new phone. Disappointing..Version: 5.188
✓ Verion 3.0I have to agree with other reviewers. The graph feature was very valuable. Ideally, everything should be on the ITouch. I do not want to log into a web site to see my data. Rating dropped from 5 Star to 3 Star..Version: 0
✓ TectecOhhh dear me 😢😢😢 totally ruined a great app with nag screens to get you to sign up for there premium services, such a shame greed has got the better of the developers,.Version: 5.124
✓ Better than expected . . .This is the second app I have tried for Diabetes records - the first I paid for . . . hmmm . . . anyhow this has some easy to use nice features - would like it to be able to record prescribed tablets under medications (and not just insulin).Version: 0
✓ Let me sign inNot letting me sign in is not funny, a person doesn’t sign in with there screen name on the webpage, they sign in with their email address and it’s asking for my sign in name On the app.Version: 5.124
✓ Update ruined the appI’ve been using this app for ages but since you updated it yesterday the app keeps crashing. I’ve now changed app.Version: 5.258
✓ Love this app! Not this versionI’ve been using this app for a while now but sadly this latest version does not work. Starts initially and immediately closes. I’m sure you guys are on it..Version: 5.258
✓ Nov 19 09 upgrade is awfulThis was a great application until today when it was "improved" First off the start up in the Harbour! I don't want a harbour, I want the app to start in the logs where it always did. When I have blood dripping off my finger I don't want to grope the iPod for the right window to enter my info. AcuCheck invasiveness is horrid too. I agree with others who say that the info should be on the iPod not on the web. I want to control where/how my information is, not at the disposal of hackers or (what an idea!) at the disposal of some health insurance company. The log is also much harder to read than it used to be. All in all, if there was a way to give this new, 'improved', application no stars at all I'd go along with that. I wish I had never updated this one. It's truly awful!.Version: 0
✓ Difficult to receive supportI was initially excited to have this app because it seemed to have it all! Exercise log, data sync, nutrition, weight management, etc. I was most excited to have the ability to sync my Dexcom! I made the premium purchase and.... have yet to have my Dexcom sync. I have tried several times and nothing each time. I attempted to find support for this issue. Stuff happens right? I attempted to get support through the app and revive an error via that way and then tried via the website and am prompted to purchase or have two weeks free of another application in order to receive support for it. I have tried several times to receive support and I have not been able to do so. It has rendered the application and premium purchase completely useless to me..Version: 5.226
✓ Ruined!I've used this app for years. This updated version is dreadful. Can't think what you thought this was going to achieve. I don't want all this extra garbage; I just want a clean straightforward way to keep track of my readings. Now I have to find a new app. Thanks a lot!.Version: 5.116
✓ History is goneYou’ve lost all my history, years worth. Nice work guys. Blah..Version: 5.116
✓ Money maker from the startWhy make it free to download if the main reasons people use it for is an in app purchase??? There is not much to do on the app without paying. Pointless. Deleted..Version: 5.142
✓ Good App But...I use this app to keep track/ control of my diabetes, The only main problem I have is the database of UK foods or the lack off should I say. Would definitely rate this app a 5 star if the developers were to improve on the UK foods database..Version: 5.316
✓ Sends sensitive data to FacebookThis app sends sensitive data to Facebook. I thought Glucose Buddy as a “medical” app would prioritise security and privacy when handling any sensitive patient data..Version: 5.188
✓ Not easy to use, weird ad blocking screenI’m not sure how this has gotten such good reviews! From the very beginning, there was a lot of pressure to “upgrade“, with even a warning of it this will be the “only time” I can upgrade, with a full screen countdown clock? 10,9,8...what? Of course I said no, and it ends up that the features they were trying to get me to pay for, are already on the app such as your A-1 C average level? I wanted to enter previous data from the last month but that became too difficult in this app. When you are entering the information, they have a tag that you can say before breakfast or before lunch etc. but then they don’t have a separate area to add food. Even though I might be entering my fasting blood sugar level, they make you add the food on that page? So in that entry you have to look hard to understand that I ate that breakfast AFTER I took my level. Also after entering about four numbers, this ad began to block the view and then when you click the X to close it, it would open it. That happened a few times, and I quickly deleted the app!!! Never had anything like this on an app!.Version: 5.188
✓ Very bad applicationZero.Version: 5.248
✓ Still Ads and No SupportNot even counting the limitations on adding meals. Paid for ad free version to use, one year. Constantly get a pop up asking me if I want to purchase the app for a discount for a limited time that then disappears shortly after. Trying to add A1C to average, but apparently there is no support. When I try to access support from app it asks me to try something else for free it takes me to a sales force site where I can pay for something? Did they mess up a plug in for their app and it’s for their company or what happened? Try to access support from App Store and it takes me to a site saying it’s not found. Going to find alternative and cancel subscription. TLDR - Still ads even though I paid for full version, only time I needed support in years and there is no help or support and site errors..Version: 5.222
✓ Paid CanadianI paid for this app but it doesn’t recognize my Canadian Dexcom account. 1 star because I have to, until you change this..Version: 5.292
✓ Always trying to push or trick you into buying things.This used to be a good app and then they changed and now keep hitting you constantly with offers for upgrades and more paying services, some of which you can’t avoid. Once you’ve logged in a bunch of readings, you can’t download or print out report for your doctor unless you pay. If you don’t pay, then you have to write down your readings to provide to doctor. I’m leaving to find an app that doesn’t lock your information down unless you pay money..Version: 5.328
✓ New version is too pushyThe new version wants always access to your location, cell data, pedometer, etc with no option to disable any of the intrusive BS. I get what the devs are going for with a one stop shop blood glucose, food, activity, etc, app, but i don’t want anything but a glucose tracker without your data mining junk..Version: 5.128
✓ Couldn’t find out if I like it to many requests for moneyAfter the third time it requested payment while trying to have a look and see how it all worked To many requests for money deleted after third request.Version: 5.334
✓ Not a useful app for the high priceExpensive subscription. Must pay to see what the app really offers. Why pay if I don’t know what I am paying for? What I see in the free app sure isn’t encouraging. No Fitbit integration. No iOS activity tracking either bc no settings to enable the app to track motion or location - even though the app displays a message telling me I need to enable these settings. Activity is critical to diabetes management. Do not pay for any app that doesn’t do this well. Graphs are ok but not insightful. Then there’s the doozie of “they don’t get it”: a page that displays a number... 384. Ok, I figured out that it is the average of two diabetes meds (measured in mg) and two types of insulin (measured in standard insulin units, not mg)! Additionally, Oral meds and basal insulin doses change infrequently. Bolus is volatile, driven by carbs and that activity the app cannot track. Ask your doctor what the average of these four numbers in unrelated units of measure tells you about your diabetes treatment... Then delete this app and look for a different one..Version: 5.140
✓ Too expensive to remove adsI fell in love with app shortly after I was diagnosed as type 1. I bought the full version for 2.19$ to remove the ads and be able to email records to my doctor, and it's been great up until this recent update. Now the ads are back, and if I wanted to remove the ads and be able to email my current records through the app, I have to spend around 80$/year. In my eyes, it's not worth that kind of money just to have an app to put your glucose, and insulin records..Version: 5.120
✓ DisappointingThis app is not very user friendly, the graphs are difficult to read. I was in the middle of using the app and a final fantasy xv ad came on which forced me to “play” the game as their was no close button. In the end I had to press the button that took me to the App Store for the game and then close both apps. I understand businesses need ads but not like this. This is the main reason I deleted the app right after that happened. I had downloaded this app and another called mySugr at the same time to try them both and see which I liked better. mySugr is very easy to use my 6 yo son (who has type 1) uses it and enjoys it..Version: 5.124
✓ Mostly fab!This is a great app. It makes tracking bsls easy. I'd like it even better if I could make multiple log entries (bsl, food, insulin etc) at a given time. It's a pain having to go in and out, saving one thing at a time. Any chance you could fix this?.Version: 3.7.0
✓ Terrible!First, you’re a hostage. Cannot email your own medical records without paying for the privilege. Second, the interface is terrible. There are things scattered all over the screen seemingly at randomness. No sense to it, no flow. I thought the graphs in the old version were pretty lame. But now they are certifiably useless. Maybe if I paid the ransom they’d be of some use? Third, you’d better love pop up ads. This thing is full of them. Fourth, know any diabetics with less than perfect eyesight? Those ones should avoid this mess. Tiny font, minimal contrast. So unless you want to spend and keep spending I’d suggest you look elsewhere! This one is a ripoff..Version: 5.124
✓ S.NamethHow do I cancel this app??.Version: 5.188
✓ Does not sync with metersEvery time I use my one touch meter it keeps re-entering the last 48 hours of data. I have to clear out all the duplicate enters when ever I use the program.Version: 5.158
✓ Confusing interfaceThe app really pushes upgrading to premium, to the max! I tried it but deleted it after struggling inputting information and then looking for food information. The records are not completely editable. There is no way to select food types and get your nutritional information. It says take a photo. Are you kidding me? I know what I ate! The app pushes a lot of costly educational materials. If I was new to diabetes I would be sucked in. But I am not. Just need a simple application to track sugar, meds, and meals in a understandable less then 100 page report for my doctor. What doctor has time to look at a huge daily report that it generates? To much useless add-ones. Deleted it after trying it two times..Version: 5.266
✓ Bring Back GraphI'm echoing similar sentiments about the latest update. I feel the graph was an absolutely essentially feature/tool to help with my management program. Also as mentioned by another reviewer is the fact there is no longer any colour coding to distinguish defined events. Somewhat disappointed in this latest update and am rating it 3 stars..Version: 0
✓ Works well when it actually works, lots of syncing trouble with DexcomTerrible tech support (mailbox full) and no real troubleshooting guide.Version: 5.344
✓ Exercise Tracker Needs More Realistic Flexibility (EDITED)(This was a 3-star review that I forgot to hit send on, back when the app worked ok) I find the logging very useful. My only issues are that the exercise categories are too rigid (e.g. no stationary or elliptical bike). Also, when using the GPS-based step tracker, even if you pause it, it continues to tally your distance as if you’re still moving. So all you can do is completely end your session. There needs to be a better more reliable resuming feature. (Cut to now) First, it’s been 5 months since the last update, and that may be the one causing all the current headaches! Now, the app has become unreliable using auto exercise mode. It crashes randomly while being used, if you luck out and complete your walk it will simply shut down for no reason. There’s clearly a bug that went into the last update and since it’s been so long, you have to wonder if the app itself is EOL. Thus, the 1-star rating; someone fell asleep at the wheel..Version: 5.378
✓ Disappointed as wellI too was a fan of the previous version of this app. Screen design aside, I feel uneasy storing all my medical information in their cloud (if Experion can be hacked, their cloud would be child’s play) ! I see no reason readings can’t be stored locally and reported from there. I also dislike the idea of “socializing” my health status. The apps functionality for doing that is completely unnecessary. With the previous version I liked being able to log my activity/exercise “category” free form. My exercise activities don’t fit in their discrete list of categories so I have no accurate way to log them..Version: 5.130
✓ CrashingNew update crashes when I try to open it! I’ve now can’t access my data that is on there!.Version: 5.258
✓ Mind your Personal Info!Not a bad app, does what it says on the tin, and the graphs etc are handy for reviewing overall control - plus of course, as its on your phone it's always in your pocket. I spent nearly 15 years forgetting to write my results in a record book, but no excuse now. HOWEVER, about six months after I downloaded the app, someone claiming to the the creator of Glucose Buddy added me on Facebook. Too much of a coincidence for it not to be him or someone associated with it, but the question is how did this guy find me? Granted, I may have entered my email address at some point (not that I can remember), but for him to then take that information and search for me on Facebook is just creepy. If I gave you that information, it was ONLY for the purpose of app-related updates. Not cool..Version: 0
✓ Find something elseThis would be a good app. I paid for the full version about a year ago. They made some improvements after making some errors. But STOP trying to sell me stuff. I paid for the app! The latest round of trying to sell me something with a button that sits in front of everything else and doesn’t go away and won’t allow you to simply reject their selling attempt is absolutely ridiculous. Not only is it annoying that it’s right in FYI t of you but it’s located right where your thumb would enter information so inadvertently you click it. THEN everyday it has a message asking if you want to continue reading!! I didn’t want it in the first place and I’m so sick and tired of the annoying button I’m going to a different app..Version: 5.232
✓ BewareThis company is among those cited whose apps habitually send your private information to Facebook without your knowledge..Version: 5.188
✓ Down HillThis app has gone downhill since the last update as they now want to charge for graph views. Disappointed. Will now have to uninstall a look elsewhere..Version: 5.166
✓ ReviewI would like to see more Canadian foods on the search engine , other than that it’s a great app.Version: 5.228
✓ Possibly BrokenUnable to open app, it keeps crashing upon ‘opening’.Version: 5.258
✓ Not happyI decided to pay this high amount for the app because it seemed to have everything I was looking for, including nutrition information like how much fat etc I consumed in my day besides the food diary. Now the app was updated and that feature gone. I can put in my nutrition goals but have no place to actually check if I reached them like it used to be. It now has the same features as other free apps and I feel like I’ve wasted my money. The email system to reach support never works. No clue why, it has my correct email address. I am not sure how to cancel my subscription or get any help if I can’t get in touch. I’d not pay this amount again and regret I did now that important features to me are gone..Version: 5.334
✓ Worst updated versionThe updated version is dreadful. Very very poor thinking by the developper. I am not going to ask my patients to use this anymore. It used to such a brilliant app. All ruined. See below my my previous comment. Gone now. Hate it. I am an Endocrinologist from Australia. Most if my Diabetic patients are using this. It is very user friendly. My Gestational Diabetic ladies love this. It is so convenient for them to do biweekly or weekly email of their glucose logs to me for review. My only negative feedback is glucose log visualisation in an excel format is quite clumsy. It would have been better to see them on multiple columns or rows (e.g. column of fasting or post pradial glucose etc).Version: 5.118
✓ Horrible AppDoesn’t work as expected. Won’t connect to Dexcom outside US and sync with Apple Health is spotty at best. Not recommended..Version: 5.344
✓ New update just shoves ads onto the homepageVery disappointed. In an attempt to make some cash, ads are being displayed on the home page making it almost impossible to update readings synced from the health app. If you are going to introduce ads at least consider UX so that your app isn't rendered completely useless. I understand wanting to push premium but there are less annoying ways to do this. This coupled with no integration with MyFitnessPal means I'm not likely to keep trying this app much longer..Version: 5.120
✓ Pretty good app but it has its problemsAfter using the app for a few months I have enjoyed all it can do but after reading the reviews of what they app could do compared to what it cannot do now is a big change. My one problem that I cannot seem to solve is my weight number in the app does not transfer into the apple health app like the other measurements. When will this be fixed? Also why can’t I see my calculated A1c? I had to download a second app to have that feature..Version: 5.180
✓ Pas un bon achat!Français partiel seulement, recherches des valeurs nutritives des repas laborieuses..Version: 5.188
✓ This App is terrible!This App is terrible!.Version: 5.168
