The Developer is totally null and void!! I have tried several Glucose Applications and this happens to be my 3rd. This app is the best so far out of all of them. However, it has its limitations and the developers are really negative and none responsive regarding suggestions about improvements!! The help section is totally worthless!!! For an application that boasts being the best, it really needs a lot of work. One of my biggest complaints is it will not link to your Apple Watch App for information about steps, etc. as I wear my watch from when I get up to when I go to bed. I don’t carry my phone with me all the time and you have to for it to track your steps.

I love this app!

I love that this app can sync my blood sugar levels with my Dexcom thru the health app😍

I used to love this app. I even paid for it a few years ago. And now, we’ll it’s a subscription! That’s ridiculous! Many can’t afford this kind of stuff. Not only that, but this app was better and easier the way it was! I miss all the tools I had long ago with this app. I find it hard to use and hard to find information when needed. And keeping track of my A1c is impossible. I can’t afford to pay over and over for this. Medicine costs enough.

This is one of 11 apps found by the WSJ to be secretly sending our data to Facebook without users consent.

I really like what this app can do. It is a good diabetes tracker that works well. What I don’t like - really don’t like - is that it sends my data to Facebook and Google in the background and without my explicit permission. It’s in the fine print of the privacy policy almost at the bottom. Until this sharing is removed or I am allowed to turn it off in the app, I will not be using this app anymore, which is too bad, because as I said, it’s really good at what it does.

Spent my $1.99 to get this app only to find that they want to keep draining my wallet to get necessary and functional features. You’ll keep my two bucks and you can keep your app too.

I purchased this today including the annual fee because it was rated highly. I enrolled, etc. So far I cannot get past their ridiculous ad for a scale. If I hit log glucose levels, more ads & no information. This is useless.

I have used the program for a few years. It works for me

I’ve been using this app for a few years and have been pleased that I could track blood sugar, carbs and most importantly the 24 individual medications that I take daily- several prescriptions are multiple times daily. A few days ago the app was changed and I now have several more keystrokes or ‘buttons to push’ because each medication has to be logged individually, then then add medicine and then save. Previously I could click down my entire drug list on 1 page, then click through the dosages all on 1 page at one time and then save. So I now need to go through adding each drug at a time which is time consuming and frustrating. I have dexterity mobility issues. I wish this new change could be undone. This new change did not enhance this application in any way.

I’ve been using this program for years, but as the new update ruined the ease of usage, I won’t be using it any more. Bye

Recent update forces each log entry to be done separately. You can no longer enter glucose level and medications in one screen with ease. I’ve been using the app five years and since the acquisition it’s been increasingly difficult to use as they work to use inconvenience to increase paid subscribers.

Purchased and can’t even type in my login information. Don’t waste your money!!!

All in all I hated GB+. To be fair I love Glucose Buddy and switched back to it. The plus version DOES NOT, 1) Record carb times correctly. If I have breakfast at 8:30am it’s fine because that’s the first meal of the day. Lunch however is treated as a continuous part of breakfast. So after you make your Carb entries you have to go back and change all the times to 12:00 pm. Same thing happens for snacks and dinner. I was spending twice as much time on this changing times... NOT CONVENIENT! 2) GB+ took away my ability to enter recipes. I know I’m weird most of my meals are homemade from “ingredients” and not purchased as packages. So when my wife, also weird, makes me SUGAR FREE peanut butter cookies GB+ either requires that She be Keebler, or Wawa, or I have to figure it all out on paper and enter it as a “Quick Add” which is only good for one use... Not Cool... And finally both versions will not link to my fitness tracker, or let me change the step count manually. I have to enter my step count as exercise “Walking” in miles and the calories burned does not change. And since we’re on the subject of exercise it would be nice if you would add “Water Aerobics”... that’s about the only exercise some of us can do because we have really bad backs and knees. So in conclusion, Glucose Buddy ****, could be 5 if you made a couple of changes. Glucose Buddy + 👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻 Sorry guys your “improvements” weren’t... ** at best. Oh! FYI I use an iPhone with the latest iOS.

The new version of glucose buddy isn’t very good to use and I would like the old version or I will have to get some other apps

I have been using Glucose Buddy for over five years. It has always worked well for me. I think it’s the best app out there for tracking health records.

I think you are continuing to improve app. Current update is nice but a few bugs. 1) on blood pressure it doesn’t hold last reading so always having to dial a lot to get to number; ie goes to 105 and I am usually at 150ish on SYS etc. also why can’t the app be the same as blood sugar where you just type in numbers? All in all it is a good app. Haven’t tried some of the aspects; maybe on another review...

Great app to keep track of all my activity. I also appreciate the responsiveness of the support department.

Track blood sugar, comments, blood pressure

It’s the only way I can stay in control of my type 2 diabetes! I wish it had the features the purchase app has but it’s all I really need! Liked it better before they changed it

Just great!

Great app. Makes managing blood sugars super easy.

X

Rally simple To log info. Can’t figure out graphs though.

I am starting enjoy the updated version A little bit more. I do wish how ever that you have more vendors choices of locations and foods. I wish you add the amount of water you drink to the main page as well.

The developers for Diabetes:M, MySugr, Sugarmate, and Glucose Buddy need to get together to integrate their apps to build a true “ultimate” app for diabetics. I was excited about Glucose Buddy because the design itself is nicer looking than Diabetes:M AND it could actually integrate my CGM data; however, one of the best parts of Diabetes:M is the bolus advisor and insulin on board indicator. Without those features, there’s no point in me using this app since it tracks the same things that the Dexcom and Diabetes:M apps track when used together. I wish I’d read more closely before I paid $2 for the app.

The app will not stay open and needs an update

Does the job simply and easily. That’s all I need. Good work, GB team!

The lack of integration with Dexcom. I get message that says "The client application is not known or is not authorized." And lack.of tech support.

These guys are masters of “updates” of questionable necessity, of giving no instructions about how to navigate the changes in an update, and introducing new features that don’t work. Such is the case with their latest. No clue why they wanted to change it. No help on how to get it to work, and the introduction of new features which prevent you from entering accurate information conveniently. It took me two weeks to figure out the last upgrade, which finally worked acceptably. Now a new upgrade which does not accept glucose readings being entered without exiting that screen and going to another for corrections. It sure looks like you have no diabetics in your software team. Or maybe they’re comatose from inaccurate readings?

This app is great

Great record keeper

I paid to upgrade but good luck getting in touch with anyone when your upgrade doesn’t “take.” They are equivalent to thieves-take your money but don’t deliver anything in return. App functions pretty well-it does what it is supposed to do (most of the time-crashes notwithstanding).

This app was a very good tool to manage my health. The recent update changed it to a completely useless toy. Why they chose to fix something that wasn't broken, I can't imagine. I researched the old app and bought it and made it a part of my health routine. I paid for it and the app they ruined it. I want my money back. OMG, In the Blood pressure graph the use a red dot on a red back ground. I rest my case. Don't buy it until they change it back. Ed M. Ps. The 4 1/2 star rating is for the old app. Let's see if anyone likes the updated version.

They are good about updating this appt. sometimes that is good, sometimes it causes little glitches. They do go back to correct. Scanning foods to get nutritional information is great. I have to count carbs and this makes it much easier. I do wish the carbs could be categorized for each meal so I could see carbs each meal, not just a running total. This has a few features that I don’t use, but for the most part I am happy with the app.

After paying 1.99 I learned it was just a trial version. Feeling cheated

Last 2 weeks Glucose Buddy doesn’t give me the daily average. Which is very important for me to monitor my daily average to keep my A1c low.

Estimados a la hota de agregar lecturas atrasadas es imposible corregir la fecha y hora en un iPhone X porque la hora queda debajo de la pleca de cerrar la Operacion Una vez gracias y disculpe las molestias esto me pasa con la ultima actualización Rolando Perez

Great app to track calories, carbs, blood glucose and medications. Exercise options for tracking are good but I wish it would allow for tracking steps without having to add additional app with GOS which didn’t work for me. Just put in options to add steps to tracking.

This is the only way that I can request my $2.16 back. I was not aware that you had to have a glucose buddy meter with this app. I used this app in the past and no meter was required, so kindly refund my $2.16 thanks

Good app wish it would sync with my Fitbit inspire2. I use a dexcom g6 and it sync with the dexcom but it seems to be about 6 hours off from the live input from the dexcom. Would like to see better integration between dexcom and Fitbit also I have used the freestyle LibreLink 14 day sensor and it does not sync with glucose buddy.

I really like this app, it’s helped me with my journey of getting off the insulin for my Type 2 diabetes. The only thing is, I have to use the Carb Manager app along with this one because neither app has everything I need. If this app would be able to inform you if the foods you’re wanting to buy was “Keto Friendly” like the Carb Manager, it would been a five Star for me.

Outstanding app. Love the 1 month-3 month-6 month weight graph. I’d like to see a graph of blood sugar readings as well.

My diabetes is in control because of this app! It helps me track everything- blood sugar, carbs, medicines, blood pressure, weight, exercise and ketones. I could not keep track of everything without it!

I have been using this app for more than 5 years but their latest update blocking the “insights” tab prevents me from seeing my historical A1C, blood pressure, weight and steps. I paid for access but they want more money after all these years. So this app is useless now. I am deleting. Company interested in profits only. Too bad.

Glucose Buddy works well for tracking T2D but needs to have medication tracking with alarms per medication, refill alarms, and more integrations added to it including integrations with other sites to import data easier. Also the barcode scanner for food crashes the app a lot.

The lat update tremendously degraded the functionality of this application!! Previously, it was useful in tracking blood glucose and viewing trends. Now, it appears to have been turned into a sales vehicle for meters, strips, and coaching. Being n medicare, I have my supplies already covered. Why would I want to start paying twice fir them. Having been a user of this app foryears, I am very disappointed!! I will likely need tofi d another app that will allow me to do what this app previously did. What were you thinking??

I was fine using the app as it was without additional purchases. I have maintained an A1c below 7 most years only exceeding 7 4 times since 2014. However each time I update this app they take away features I have had for free and now want me to pay for them. This was basically a decent app that they want to be a cash cow. Recently I updated because the promo said that there was a improvement in the insights tab. Prior to the update I was tracking my glucose, weight, steps & blood pressure in INSIGHTS over multiple years. What lies. After updating the only thing I can see in INSIGHTS is previous glucose readings. All the other data that was available on my phone is no longer available. Further, the app no longer records my daily steps for me to see. I do not see this as an improvement. I needed to get another app just to keep track of my steps.

Great easy app helps me control my blood sugar if I document it

I couldn’t permanently delete an insulin type so recording BGL/insulin was a chore. So I paid for the + version thinking that would help - no diff!

The Developer is totally null and void!! I have tried several Glucose Applications and this happens to be my 3rd. This app is the best so far out of all of them. However, it has its limitations and the developers are really negative and none responsive regarding suggestions about improvements!! The help section is totally worthless!!! For an application that boasts being the best, it really needs a lot of work. One of my biggest complaints is it will not link to your Apple Watch App for information about steps, etc. as I wear my watch from when I get up to when I go to bed.

Great easy app helps me control my blood sugar if I document it

Easy to use & everything’s in one place: glucose readings, meds, food & steps etc. The food section was an eye opener! Just type in the food or drink item & a comprehensive list of brands, including supermarket, comes up, or you can scan the label with your camera. You can even add the meals you cooked yourself by using recipes & add the ingredients used. I LOVE😍 that: so useful! There just one thing I would like added to this app. Although this syncs. with the Health app on iPhone, it only add those steps counted by the iPhone & not from other sources. I don’t carry my iPhone all the time so, use an activity tracker, & app, that adds steps to the Health app. A more fully integrated sync with the Health app that includes data from all the sources would be more helpful: ALL steps added; not just when I have my iPhone with me! I suggested that using the tech support section under settings & add suggestions.

这次改版升级更改了页面配色。显然不大用心，高光部分太亮，不美观，暗色部分太暗，看不清数据和字。赶快改回来吧。

All in all it is a good app. Haven’t tried some of the aspects; maybe on another review...

Great app to keep track of all my activity. I also appreciate the responsiveness of the support department.

Track blood sugar, comments, blood pressure

It’s the only way I can stay in control of my type 2 diabetes! I wish it had the features the purchase app has but it’s all I really need! Liked it better before they changed it

Just great!

Great app. Makes managing blood sugars super easy.

Rally simple To log info. Can’t figure out graphs though.

I am starting enjoy the updated version A little bit more. I do wish how ever that you have more vendors choices of locations and foods. I wish you add the amount of water you drink to the main page as well.

The developers for Diabetes:M, MySugr, Sugarmate, and Glucose Buddy need to get together to integrate their apps to build a true “ultimate” app for diabetics. I was excited about Glucose Buddy because the design itself is nicer looking than Diabetes:M AND it could actually integrate my CGM data; however, one of the best parts of Diabetes:M is the bolus advisor and insulin on board indicator. Without those features, there’s no point in me using this app since it tracks the same things that the Dexcom and Diabetes:M apps track when used together. I wish I’d read more closely before I paid $2 for the app.

The app will not stay open and needs an update

Does the job simply and easily. That’s all I need. Good work, GB team!

The lack of integration with Dexcom. I get message that says "The client application is not known or is not authorized." And lack.of tech support.

These guys are masters of “updates” of questionable necessity, of giving no instructions about how to navigate the changes in an update, and introducing new features that don’t work. Such is the case with their latest. No clue why they wanted to change it. No help on how to get it to work, and the introduction of new features which prevent you from entering accurate information conveniently. It took me two weeks to figure out the last upgrade, which finally worked acceptably. Now a new upgrade which does not accept glucose readings being entered without exiting that screen and going to another for corrections. It sure looks like you have no diabetics in your software team. Or maybe they’re comatose from inaccurate readings?

This app is great

Great record keeper

I paid to upgrade but good luck getting in touch with anyone when your upgrade doesn’t “take.” They are equivalent to thieves-take your money but don’t deliver anything in return. App functions pretty well-it does what it is supposed to do (most of the time-crashes notwithstanding).

This app was a very good tool to manage my health. The recent update changed it to a completely useless toy. Why they chose to fix something that wasn't broken, I can't imagine. I researched the old app and bought it and made it a part of my health routine. I paid for it and the app they ruined it. I want my money back. OMG, In the Blood pressure graph the use a red dot on a red back ground. I rest my case. Don't buy it until they change it back. Ed M. Ps. The 4 1/2 star rating is for the old app. Let's see if anyone likes the updated version.

They are good about updating this appt. sometimes that is good, sometimes it causes little glitches. They do go back to correct. Scanning foods to get nutritional information is great. I have to count carbs and this makes it much easier. I do wish the carbs could be categorized for each meal so I could see carbs each meal, not just a running total. This has a few features that I don’t use, but for the most part I am happy with the app.

After paying 1.99 I learned it was just a trial version. Feeling cheated

Last 2 weeks Glucose Buddy doesn’t give me the daily average. Which is very important for me to monitor my daily average to keep my A1c low.

Great app to track calories, carbs, blood glucose and medications. Exercise options for tracking are good but I wish it would allow for tracking steps without having to add additional app with GOS which didn’t work for me. Just put in options to add steps to tracking.

This is the only way that I can request my $2.16 back. I was not aware that you had to have a glucose buddy meter with this app. I used this app in the past and no meter was required, so kindly refund my $2.16 thanks

Good app wish it would sync with my Fitbit inspire2. I use a dexcom g6 and it sync with the dexcom but it seems to be about 6 hours off from the live input from the dexcom. Would like to see better integration between dexcom and Fitbit also I have used the freestyle LibreLink 14 day sensor and it does not sync with glucose buddy.

I really like this app, it’s helped me with my journey of getting off the insulin for my Type 2 diabetes. The only thing is, I have to use the Carb Manager app along with this one because neither app has everything I need. If this app would be able to inform you if the foods you’re wanting to buy was “Keto Friendly” like the Carb Manager, it would been a five Star for me.

Outstanding app. Love the 1 month-3 month-6 month weight graph. I’d like to see a graph of blood sugar readings as well.

My diabetes is in control because of this app! It helps me track everything- blood sugar, carbs, medicines, blood pressure, weight, exercise and ketones. I could not keep track of everything without it!

I have been using this app for more than 5 years but their latest update blocking the “insights” tab prevents me from seeing my historical A1C, blood pressure, weight and steps. I paid for access but they want more money after all these years. So this app is useless now. I am deleting. Company interested in profits only. Too bad.

Glucose Buddy works well for tracking T2D but needs to have medication tracking with alarms per medication, refill alarms, and more integrations added to it including integrations with other sites to import data easier. Also the barcode scanner for food crashes the app a lot.

The lat update tremendously degraded the functionality of this application!! Previously, it was useful in tracking blood glucose and viewing trends. Now, it appears to have been turned into a sales vehicle for meters, strips, and coaching. Being n medicare, I have my supplies already covered. Why would I want to start paying twice fir them. Having been a user of this app foryears, I am very disappointed!! I will likely need tofi d another app that will allow me to do what this app previously did. What were you thinking??

I was fine using the app as it was without additional purchases. I have maintained an A1c below 7 most years only exceeding 7 4 times since 2014. However each time I update this app they take away features I have had for free and now want me to pay for them. This was basically a decent app that they want to be a cash cow. Recently I updated because the promo said that there was a improvement in the insights tab. Prior to the update I was tracking my glucose, weight, steps & blood pressure in INSIGHTS over multiple years. What lies. After updating the only thing I can see in INSIGHTS is previous glucose readings. All the other data that was available on my phone is no longer available. Further, the app no longer records my daily steps for me to see. I do not see this as an improvement. I needed to get another app just to keep track of my steps.

Great easy app helps me control my blood sugar if I document it

Easy to use & everything’s in one place: glucose readings, meds, food & steps etc. The food section was an eye opener! Just type in the food or drink item & a comprehensive list of brands, including supermarket, comes up, or you can scan the label with your camera. You can even add the meals you cooked yourself by using recipes & add the ingredients used. I LOVE😍 that: so useful! There just one thing I would like added to this app. Although this syncs. with the Health app on iPhone, it only add those steps counted by the iPhone & not from other sources. I don’t carry my iPhone all the time so, use an activity tracker, & app, that adds steps to the Health app. A more fully integrated sync with the Health app that includes data from all the sources would be more helpful: ALL steps added; not just when I have my iPhone with me! I suggested that using the tech support section under settings & add suggestions.

这次改版升级更改了页面配色。显然不大用心，高光部分太亮，不美观，暗色部分太暗，看不清数据和字。赶快改回来吧。

相机打不开，拍照输入无法进行

I couldn’t permanently delete an insulin type so recording BGL/insulin was a chore. So I paid for the + version thinking that would help - no diff!

The Developer is totally null and void!! I have tried several Glucose Applications and this happens to be my 3rd. This app is the best so far out of all of them. However, it has its limitations and the developers are really negative and none responsive regarding suggestions about improvements!! The help section is totally worthless!!! For an application that boasts being the best, it really needs a lot of work. One of my biggest complaints is it will not link to your Apple Watch App for information about steps, etc. as I wear my watch from when I get up to when I go to bed. I don’t carry my phone with me all the time and you have to for it to track your steps.

I love this app!

I love that this app can sync my blood sugar levels with my Dexcom thru the health app😍

I used to love this app. I even paid for it a few years ago. And now, we’ll it’s a subscription! That’s ridiculous! Many can’t afford this kind of stuff. Not only that, but this app was better and easier the way it was! I miss all the tools I had long ago with this app. I find it hard to use and hard to find information when needed. And keeping track of my A1c is impossible. I can’t afford to pay over and over for this. Medicine costs enough.

This is one of 11 apps found by the WSJ to be secretly sending our data to Facebook without users consent.

I really like what this app can do. It is a good diabetes tracker that works well. What I don’t like - really don’t like - is that it sends my data to Facebook and Google in the background and without my explicit permission. It’s in the fine print of the privacy policy almost at the bottom. Until this sharing is removed or I am allowed to turn it off in the app, I will not be using this app anymore, which is too bad, because as I said, it’s really good at what it does.

Spent my $1.99 to get this app only to find that they want to keep draining my wallet to get necessary and functional features. You’ll keep my two bucks and you can keep your app too.

I purchased this today including the annual fee because it was rated highly. I enrolled, etc. So far I cannot get past their ridiculous ad for a scale. If I hit log glucose levels, more ads & no information. This is useless.

I have used the program for a few years. It works for me

I’ve been using this app for a few years and have been pleased that I could track blood sugar, carbs and most importantly the 24 individual medications that I take daily- several prescriptions are multiple times daily. A few days ago the app was changed and I now have several more keystrokes or ‘buttons to push’ because each medication has to be logged individually, then then add medicine and then save. Previously I could click down my entire drug list on 1 page, then click through the dosages all on 1 page at one time and then save. So I now need to go through adding each drug at a time which is time consuming and frustrating. I have dexterity mobility issues. I wish this new change could be undone. This new change did not enhance this application in any way.

I’ve been using this program for years, but as the new update ruined the ease of usage, I won’t be using it any more. Bye

Recent update forces each log entry to be done separately. You can no longer enter glucose level and medications in one screen with ease. I’ve been using the app five years and since the acquisition it’s been increasingly difficult to use as they work to use inconvenience to increase paid subscribers.

Purchased and can’t even type in my login information. Don’t waste your money!!!

All in all I hated GB+. To be fair I love Glucose Buddy and switched back to it. The plus version DOES NOT, 1) Record carb times correctly. If I have breakfast at 8:30am it’s fine because that’s the first meal of the day. Lunch however is treated as a continuous part of breakfast. So after you make your Carb entries you have to go back and change all the times to 12:00 pm. Same thing happens for snacks and dinner. I was spending twice as much time on this changing times... NOT CONVENIENT! 2) GB+ took away my ability to enter recipes. I know I’m weird most of my meals are homemade from “ingredients” and not purchased as packages. So when my wife, also weird, makes me SUGAR FREE peanut butter cookies GB+ either requires that She be Keebler, or Wawa, or I have to figure it all out on paper and enter it as a “Quick Add” which is only good for one use... Not Cool... And finally both versions will not link to my fitness tracker, or let me change the step count manually. I have to enter my step count as exercise “Walking” in miles and the calories burned does not change. And since we’re on the subject of exercise it would be nice if you would add “Water Aerobics”... that’s about the only exercise some of us can do because we have really bad backs and knees. So in conclusion, Glucose Buddy ****, could be 5 if you made a couple of changes. Glucose Buddy + 👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻 Sorry guys your “improvements” weren’t... ** at best. Oh! FYI I use an iPhone with the latest iOS.

The new version of glucose buddy isn’t very good to use and I would like the old version or I will have to get some other apps

I have been using Glucose Buddy for over five years. It has always worked well for me. I think it’s the best app out there for tracking health records.

Great app to track calories, carbs, blood glucose and medications. Exercise options for tracking are good but I wish it would allow for tracking steps without having to add additional app with GOS which didn’t work for me. Just put in options to add steps to tracking.

This is the only way that I can request my $2.16 back. I was not aware that you had to have a glucose buddy meter with this app. I used this app in the past and no meter was required, so kindly refund my $2.16 thanks

Good app wish it would sync with my Fitbit inspire2. I use a dexcom g6 and it sync with the dexcom but it seems to be about 6 hours off from the live input from the dexcom. Would like to see better integration between dexcom and Fitbit also I have used the freestyle LibreLink 14 day sensor and it does not sync with glucose buddy.

I really like this app, it’s helped me with my journey of getting off the insulin for my Type 2 diabetes. The only thing is, I have to use the Carb Manager app along with this one because neither app has everything I need. If this app would be able to inform you if the foods you’re wanting to buy was “Keto Friendly” like the Carb Manager, it would been a five Star for me.

Outstanding app. Love the 1 month-3 month-6 month weight graph. I’d like to see a graph of blood sugar readings as well.

My diabetes is in control because of this app! It helps me track everything- blood sugar, carbs, medicines, blood pressure, weight, exercise and ketones. I could not keep track of everything without it!

I have been using this app for more than 5 years but their latest update blocking the “insights” tab prevents me from seeing my historical A1C, blood pressure, weight and steps. I paid for access but they want more money after all these years. So this app is useless now. I am deleting. Company interested in profits only. Too bad.

Glucose Buddy works well for tracking T2D but needs to have medication tracking with alarms per medication, refill alarms, and more integrations added to it including integrations with other sites to import data easier. Also the barcode scanner for food crashes the app a lot.

The lat update tremendously degraded the functionality of this application!! Previously, it was useful in tracking blood glucose and viewing trends. Now, it appears to have been turned into a sales vehicle for meters, strips, and coaching. Being n medicare, I have my supplies already covered. Why would I want to start paying twice fir them. Having been a user of this app foryears, I am very disappointed!! I will likely need tofi d another app that will allow me to do what this app previously did. What were you thinking??

I was fine using the app as it was without additional purchases. I have maintained an A1c below 7 most years only exceeding 7 4 times since 2014. However each time I update this app they take away features I have had for free and now want me to pay for them. This was basically a decent app that they want to be a cash cow. Recently I updated because the promo said that there was a improvement in the insights tab. Prior to the update I was tracking my glucose, weight, steps & blood pressure in INSIGHTS over multiple years. What lies. After updating the only thing I can see in INSIGHTS is previous glucose readings. All the other data that was available on my phone is no longer available. Further, the app no longer records my daily steps for me to see. I do not see this as an improvement. I needed to get another app just to keep track of my steps.

Great easy app helps me control my blood sugar if I document it

I couldn’t permanently delete an insulin type so recording BGL/insulin was a chore. So I paid for the + version thinking that would help - no diff!

Besides giving me the opportunity to record daily my sugar numbers it also allows me to record my medication and in addition I can use it to monitor my food intake it’s a wonderful centralize app JP

Easy to use!

Please don’t spam for reviews. If I want to give a review I will give one.

Work great until I upgraded.... Now I get multiple entries and no responds from them

One thing that really bugs me is that I cannot remove old medications. Not sure why the app won’t let me edit the list. If you want an app that just tracks BGLs, this is not for you.

I’ve been using this app for many years and was very happy with it. Now not so much. The new model is truly troubled. Since the last release, the app has become too buggy to be of use. Just opening the app takes several minutes. Sometimes it opens and immediately closes. Once it opens entries cannot be made until it’s good and ready. Occasionally it just totally freezes up! I used to be able to estimate my A1C, but no longer unless I want to pay for it! Nope not me! I got so fed up with the bugs that in a fit of rage I deleted the app and all of my data. Wish I could give it less than one star.

The Developer is totally null and void!! I have tried several Glucose Applications and this happens to be my 3rd. This app is the best so far out of all of them. However, it has its limitations and the developers are really negative and none responsive regarding suggestions about improvements!! The help section is totally worthless!!! For an application that boasts being the best, it really needs a lot of work. One of my biggest complaints is it will not link to your Apple Watch App for information about steps, etc. as I wear my watch from when I get up to when I go to bed. I don’t carry my phone with me all the time and you have to for it to track your steps.

I love this app!

I love that this app can sync my blood sugar levels with my Dexcom thru the health app😍

I used to love this app. I even paid for it a few years ago. And now, we’ll it’s a subscription! That’s ridiculous! Many can’t afford this kind of stuff. Not only that, but this app was better and easier the way it was! I miss all the tools I had long ago with this app. I find it hard to use and hard to find information when needed. And keeping track of my A1c is impossible. I can’t afford to pay over and over for this. Medicine costs enough.

This is one of 11 apps found by the WSJ to be secretly sending our data to Facebook without users consent.

I really like what this app can do. It is a good diabetes tracker that works well. What I don’t like - really don’t like - is that it sends my data to Facebook and Google in the background and without my explicit permission. It’s in the fine print of the privacy policy almost at the bottom. Until this sharing is removed or I am allowed to turn it off in the app, I will not be using this app anymore, which is too bad, because as I said, it’s really good at what it does.

Spent my $1.99 to get this app only to find that they want to keep draining my wallet to get necessary and functional features. You’ll keep my two bucks and you can keep your app too.

I purchased this today including the annual fee because it was rated highly. I enrolled, etc. So far I cannot get past their ridiculous ad for a scale. If I hit log glucose levels, more ads & no information. This is useless.

I have used the program for a few years. It works for me

I’ve been using this app for a few years and have been pleased that I could track blood sugar, carbs and most importantly the 24 individual medications that I take daily- several prescriptions are multiple times daily. A few days ago the app was changed and I now have several more keystrokes or ‘buttons to push’ because each medication has to be logged individually, then then add medicine and then save. Previously I could click down my entire drug list on 1 page, then click through the dosages all on 1 page at one time and then save. So I now need to go through adding each drug at a time which is time consuming and frustrating. I have dexterity mobility issues. I wish this new change could be undone. This new change did not enhance this application in any way.

I’ve been using this program for years, but as the new update ruined the ease of usage, I won’t be using it any more. Bye

The recent updates do not make using this product easier. They actually make it more time consuming. The program used to remember my last weight so entering daily weight was only a minor adjustment. Now I have to scroll a much longer time to find the right number. In addition the blood pressure tracker displayed your last reading before you entered a new one so again there might be minimum scrolling. If I have to enter a new figure each time I don’t need the scroll wheel.

Recent update forces each log entry to be done separately. You can no longer enter glucose level and medications in one screen with ease. I’ve been using the app five years and since the acquisition it’s been increasingly difficult to use as they work to use inconvenience to increase paid subscribers.

Purchased and can’t even type in my login information. Don’t waste your money!!!

All in all I hated GB+. To be fair I love Glucose Buddy and switched back to it. The plus version DOES NOT, 1) Record carb times correctly. If I have breakfast at 8:30am it’s fine because that’s the first meal of the day. Lunch however is treated as a continuous part of breakfast. So after you make your Carb entries you have to go back and change all the times to 12:00 pm. Same thing happens for snacks and dinner. I was spending twice as much time on this changing times... NOT CONVENIENT! 2) GB+ took away my ability to enter recipes. I know I’m weird most of my meals are homemade from “ingredients” and not purchased as packages. So when my wife, also weird, makes me SUGAR FREE peanut butter cookies GB+ either requires that She be Keebler, or Wawa, or I have to figure it all out on paper and enter it as a “Quick Add” which is only good for one use... Not Cool... And finally both versions will not link to my fitness tracker, or let me change the step count manually. I have to enter my step count as exercise “Walking” in miles and the calories burned does not change. And since we’re on the subject of exercise it would be nice if you would add “Water Aerobics”... that’s about the only exercise some of us can do because we have really bad backs and knees. So in conclusion, Glucose Buddy ****, could be 5 if you made a couple of changes. Glucose Buddy + 👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻 Sorry guys your “improvements” weren’t... ** at best. Oh! FYI I use an iPhone with the latest iOS.

The new version of glucose buddy isn’t very good to use and I would like the old version or I will have to get some other apps

I have been using Glucose Buddy for over five years. It has always worked well for me. I think it’s the best app out there for tracking health records.

I think you are continuing to improve app. Current update is nice but a few bugs. 1) on blood pressure it doesn’t hold last reading so always having to dial a lot to get to number; ie goes to 105 and I am usually at 150ish on SYS etc. also why can’t the app be the same as blood sugar where you just type in numbers? All in all it is a good app. Haven’t tried some of the aspects; maybe on another review...

Great app to keep track of all my activity. I also appreciate the responsiveness of the support department.

Track blood sugar, comments, blood pressure

It’s the only way I can stay in control of my type 2 diabetes! I wish it had the features the purchase app has but it’s all I really need! Liked it better before they changed it

Just great!

Great app. Makes managing blood sugars super easy.

Rally simple To log info. Can’t figure out graphs though.

I am starting enjoy the updated version A little bit more. I do wish how ever that you have more vendors choices of locations and foods. I wish you add the amount of water you drink to the main page as well.

The developers for Diabetes:M, MySugr, Sugarmate, and Glucose Buddy need to get together to integrate their apps to build a true “ultimate” app for diabetics. I was excited about Glucose Buddy because the design itself is nicer looking than Diabetes:M AND it could actually integrate my CGM data; however, one of the best parts of Diabetes:M is the bolus advisor and insulin on board indicator. Without those features, there’s no point in me using this app since it tracks the same things that the Dexcom and Diabetes:M apps track when used together. I wish I’d read more closely before I paid $2 for the app.

The app will not stay open and needs an update

Does the job simply and easily. That’s all I need. Good work, GB team!

The lack of integration with Dexcom. I get message that says "The client application is not known or is not authorized." And lack.of tech support.

These guys are masters of “updates” of questionable necessity, of giving no instructions about how to navigate the changes in an update, and introducing new features that don’t work. Such is the case with their latest. No clue why they wanted to change it. No help on how to get it to work, and the introduction of new features which prevent you from entering accurate information conveniently. It took me two weeks to figure out the last upgrade, which finally worked acceptably. Now a new upgrade which does not accept glucose readings being entered without exiting that screen and going to another for corrections. It sure looks like you have no diabetics in your software team. Or maybe they’re comatose from inaccurate readings?

This app is great

Great record keeper

I paid to upgrade but good luck getting in touch with anyone when your upgrade doesn’t “take.” They are equivalent to thieves-take your money but don’t deliver anything in return. App functions pretty well-it does what it is supposed to do (most of the time-crashes notwithstanding).

This app was a very good tool to manage my health. The recent update changed it to a completely useless toy. Why they chose to fix something that wasn't broken, I can't imagine. I researched the old app and bought it and made it a part of my health routine. I paid for it and the app they ruined it. I want my money back. OMG, In the Blood pressure graph the use a red dot on a red back ground. I rest my case. Don't buy it until they change it back. Ed M. Ps. The 4 1/2 star rating is for the old app. Let's see if anyone likes the updated version.

They are good about updating this appt. sometimes that is good, sometimes it causes little glitches. They do go back to correct. Scanning foods to get nutritional information is great. I have to count carbs and this makes it much easier. I do wish the carbs could be categorized for each meal so I could see carbs each meal, not just a running total. This has a few features that I don’t use, but for the most part I am happy with the app.

After paying 1.99 I learned it was just a trial version. Feeling cheated

I’ve been using this program for years, but as the new update ruined the ease of usage, I won’t be using it any more. Bye

The recent updates do not make using this product easier. They actually make it more time consuming. The program used to remember my last weight so entering daily weight was only a minor adjustment. Now I have to scroll a much longer time to find the right number. In addition the blood pressure tracker displayed your last reading before you entered a new one so again there might be minimum scrolling. If I have to enter a new figure each time I don’t need the scroll wheel.

Recent update forces each log entry to be done separately. You can no longer enter glucose level and medications in one screen with ease. I’ve been using the app five years and since the acquisition it’s been increasingly difficult to use as they work to use inconvenience to increase paid subscribers.

Purchased and can’t even type in my login information. Don’t waste your money!!!

All in all I hated GB+. To be fair I love Glucose Buddy and switched back to it. The plus version DOES NOT, 1) Record carb times correctly. If I have breakfast at 8:30am it’s fine because that’s the first meal of the day. Lunch however is treated as a continuous part of breakfast. So after you make your Carb entries you have to go back and change all the times to 12:00 pm. Same thing happens for snacks and dinner. I was spending twice as much time on this changing times... NOT CONVENIENT! 2) GB+ took away my ability to enter recipes. I know I’m weird most of my meals are homemade from “ingredients” and not purchased as packages. So when my wife, also weird, makes me SUGAR FREE peanut butter cookies GB+ either requires that She be Keebler, or Wawa, or I have to figure it all out on paper and enter it as a “Quick Add” which is only good for one use... Not Cool... And finally both versions will not link to my fitness tracker, or let me change the step count manually. I have to enter my step count as exercise “Walking” in miles and the calories burned does not change. And since we’re on the subject of exercise it would be nice if you would add “Water Aerobics”... that’s about the only exercise some of us can do because we have really bad backs and knees. So in conclusion, Glucose Buddy ****, could be 5 if you made a couple of changes. Glucose Buddy + 👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻 Sorry guys your “improvements” weren’t... ** at best. Oh! FYI I use an iPhone with the latest iOS.

The new version of glucose buddy isn’t very good to use and I would like the old version or I will have to get some other apps

I have been using Glucose Buddy for over five years. It has always worked well for me. I think it’s the best app out there for tracking health records.

I think you are continuing to improve app. Current update is nice but a few bugs. 1) on blood pressure it doesn’t hold last reading so always having to dial a lot to get to number; ie goes to 105 and I am usually at 150ish on SYS etc. also why can’t the app be the same as blood sugar where you just type in numbers? All in all it is a good app. Haven’t tried some of the aspects; maybe on another review...

Great app to keep track of all my activity. I also appreciate the responsiveness of the support department.

Track blood sugar, comments, blood pressure

It’s the only way I can stay in control of my type 2 diabetes! I wish it had the features the purchase app has but it’s all I really need! Liked it better before they changed it

Just great!

The developers for Diabetes:M, MySugr, Sugarmate, and Glucose Buddy need to get together to integrate their apps to build a true “ultimate” app for diabetics. I was excited about Glucose Buddy because the design itself is nicer looking than Diabetes:M AND it could actually integrate my CGM data; however, one of the best parts of Diabetes:M is the bolus advisor and insulin on board indicator. Without those features, there’s no point in me using this app since it tracks the same things that the Dexcom and Diabetes:M apps track when used together. I wish I’d read more closely before I paid $2 for the app.

The app will not stay open and needs an update

Does the job simply and easily. That’s all I need. Good work, GB team!

The lack of integration with Dexcom. I get message that says "The client application is not known or is not authorized." And lack.of tech support.

Such is the case with their latest. No clue why they wanted to change it.

They are good about updating this appt. sometimes that is good, sometimes it causes little glitches. They do go back to correct. Scanning foods to get nutritional information is great. I have to count carbs and this makes it much easier. I do wish the carbs could be categorized for each meal so I could see carbs each meal, not just a running total. This has a few features that I don’t use, but for the most part I am happy with the app.

After paying 1.99 I learned it was just a trial version. Feeling cheated

Last 2 weeks Glucose Buddy doesn’t give me the daily average. Which is very important for me to monitor my daily average to keep my A1c low.

Estimados a la hota de agregar lecturas atrasadas es imposible corregir la fecha y hora en un iPhone X porque la hora queda debajo de la pleca de cerrar la Operacion Una vez gracias y disculpe las molestias esto me pasa con la ultima actualización Rolando Perez

Great app to track calories, carbs, blood glucose and medications. Exercise options for tracking are good but I wish it would allow for tracking steps without having to add additional app with GOS which didn’t work for me. Just put in options to add steps to tracking.

This is the only way that I can request my $2.16 back. I was not aware that you had to have a glucose buddy meter with this app. I used this app in the past and no meter was required, so kindly refund my $2.16 thanks

Good app wish it would sync with my Fitbit inspire2. I use a dexcom g6 and it sync with the dexcom but it seems to be about 6 hours off from the live input from the dexcom. Would like to see better integration between dexcom and Fitbit also I have used the freestyle LibreLink 14 day sensor and it does not sync with glucose buddy.

I really like this app, it’s helped me with my journey of getting off the insulin for my Type 2 diabetes. The only thing is, I have to use the Carb Manager app along with this one because neither app has everything I need. If this app would be able to inform you if the foods you’re wanting to buy was “Keto Friendly” like the Carb Manager, it would been a five Star for me.

I couldn’t permanently delete an insulin type so recording BGL/insulin was a chore. So I paid for the + version thinking that would help - no diff!

I couldn’t permanently delete an insulin type so recording BGL/insulin was a chore. So I paid for the + version thinking that would help - no diff!

Besides giving me the opportunity to record daily my sugar numbers it also allows me to record my medication and in addition I can use it to monitor my food intake it’s a wonderful centralize app JP

Easy to use!

Please don’t spam for reviews. If I want to give a review I will give one.

Work great until I upgraded.... Now I get multiple entries and no responds from them

One thing that really bugs me is that I cannot remove old medications. Not sure why the app won’t let me edit the list. If you want an app that just tracks BGLs, this is not for you.

I’ve been using this app for many years and was very happy with it. Now not so much. The new model is truly troubled. Since the last release, the app has become too buggy to be of use. Just opening the app takes several minutes. Sometimes it opens and immediately closes. Once it opens entries cannot be made until it’s good and ready. Occasionally it just totally freezes up! I used to be able to estimate my A1C, but no longer unless I want to pay for it! Nope not me! I got so fed up with the bugs that in a fit of rage I deleted the app and all of my data. Wish I could give it less than one star.

The Developer is totally null and void!! I have tried several Glucose Applications and this happens to be my 3rd. This app is the best so far out of all of them. However, it has its limitations and the developers are really negative and none responsive regarding suggestions about improvements!! The help section is totally worthless!!! For an application that boasts being the best, it really needs a lot of work. One of my biggest complaints is it will not link to your Apple Watch App for information about steps, etc. as I wear my watch from when I get up to when I go to bed. I don’t carry my phone with me all the time and you have to for it to track your steps.

I love this app!

I love that this app can sync my blood sugar levels with my Dexcom thru the health app😍

I used to love this app. I even paid for it a few years ago. And now, we’ll it’s a subscription! That’s ridiculous! Many can’t afford this kind of stuff. Not only that, but this app was better and easier the way it was! I miss all the tools I had long ago with this app. I find it hard to use and hard to find information when needed. And keeping track of my A1c is impossible. I can’t afford to pay over and over for this. Medicine costs enough.

This is one of 11 apps found by the WSJ to be secretly sending our data to Facebook without users consent.

I really like what this app can do. It is a good diabetes tracker that works well. What I don’t like - really don’t like - is that it sends my data to Facebook and Google in the background and without my explicit permission. It’s in the fine print of the privacy policy almost at the bottom. Until this sharing is removed or I am allowed to turn it off in the app, I will not be using this app anymore, which is too bad, because as I said, it’s really good at what it does.

Spent my $1.99 to get this app only to find that they want to keep draining my wallet to get necessary and functional features. You’ll keep my two bucks and you can keep your app too.

I purchased this today including the annual fee because it was rated highly. I enrolled, etc. So far I cannot get past their ridiculous ad for a scale. If I hit log glucose levels, more ads & no information. This is useless.

I have used the program for a few years. It works for me

I’ve been using this app for a few years and have been pleased that I could track blood sugar, carbs and most importantly the 24 individual medications that I take daily- several prescriptions are multiple times daily. A few days ago the app was changed and I now have several more keystrokes or ‘buttons to push’ because each medication has to be logged individually, then then add medicine and then save. Previously I could click down my entire drug list on 1 page, then click through the dosages all on 1 page at one time and then save. So I now need to go through adding each drug at a time which is time consuming and frustrating. I have dexterity mobility issues. I wish this new change could be undone. This new change did not enhance this application in any way.

I’ve been using this program for years, but as the new update ruined the ease of usage, I won’t be using it any more. Bye

Easy to use & everything’s in one place: glucose readings, meds, food & steps etc. The food section was an eye opener! Just type in the food or drink item & a comprehensive list of brands, including supermarket, comes up, or you can scan the label with your camera. You can even add the meals you cooked yourself by using recipes & add the ingredients used. I LOVE😍 that: so useful! There just one thing I would like added to this app. Although this syncs. with the Health app on iPhone, it only add those steps counted by the iPhone & not from other sources. I don’t carry my iPhone all the time so, use an activity tracker, & app, that adds steps to the Health app. A more fully integrated sync with the Health app that includes data from all the sources would be more helpful: ALL steps added; not just when I have my iPhone with me! I suggested that using the tech support section under settings & add suggestions.

This has a few features that I don’t use, but for the most part I am happy with the app.

After paying 1.99 I learned it was just a trial version. Feeling cheated

Last 2 weeks Glucose Buddy doesn’t give me the daily average. Which is very important for me to monitor my daily average to keep my A1c low.

Great app to track calories, carbs, blood glucose and medications. Exercise options for tracking are good but I wish it would allow for tracking steps without having to add additional app with GOS which didn’t work for me. Just put in options to add steps to tracking.

This is the only way that I can request my $2.16 back. I was not aware that you had to have a glucose buddy meter with this app. I used this app in the past and no meter was required, so kindly refund my $2.16 thanks

Good app wish it would sync with my Fitbit inspire2. I use a dexcom g6 and it sync with the dexcom but it seems to be about 6 hours off from the live input from the dexcom. Would like to see better integration between dexcom and Fitbit also I have used the freestyle LibreLink 14 day sensor and it does not sync with glucose buddy.

I really like this app, it’s helped me with my journey of getting off the insulin for my Type 2 diabetes. The only thing is, I have to use the Carb Manager app along with this one because neither app has everything I need. If this app would be able to inform you if the foods you’re wanting to buy was “Keto Friendly” like the Carb Manager, it would been a five Star for me.

Besides giving me the opportunity to record daily my sugar numbers it also allows me to record my medication and in addition I can use it to monitor my food intake it’s a wonderful centralize app JP

Easy to use!

Please don’t spam for reviews. If I want to give a review I will give one.

Work great until I upgraded.... Now I get multiple entries and no responds from them

One thing that really bugs me is that I cannot remove old medications. Not sure why the app won’t let me edit the list. If you want an app that just tracks BGLs, this is not for you.

I’ve been using this app for many years and was very happy with it. Now not so much. The new model is truly troubled. Since the last release, the app has become too buggy to be of use. Just opening the app takes several minutes. Sometimes it opens and immediately closes. Once it opens entries cannot be made until it’s good and ready. Occasionally it just totally freezes up! I used to be able to estimate my A1C, but no longer unless I want to pay for it! Nope not me! I got so fed up with the bugs that in a fit of rage I deleted the app and all of my data. Wish I could give it less than one star.

The Developer is totally null and void!! I have tried several Glucose Applications and this happens to be my 3rd. This app is the best so far out of all of them. However, it has its limitations and the developers are really negative and none responsive regarding suggestions about improvements!! The help section is totally worthless!!! For an application that boasts being the best, it really needs a lot of work. One of my biggest complaints is it will not link to your Apple Watch App for information about steps, etc. as I wear my watch from when I get up to when I go to bed. I don’t carry my phone with me all the time and you have to for it to track your steps.

I love this app!

I love that this app can sync my blood sugar levels with my Dexcom thru the health app😍

I used to love this app. I even paid for it a few years ago. And now, we’ll it’s a subscription! That’s ridiculous! Many can’t afford this kind of stuff. Not only that, but this app was better and easier the way it was! I miss all the tools I had long ago with this app. I find it hard to use and hard to find information when needed. And keeping track of my A1c is impossible. I can’t afford to pay over and over for this. Medicine costs enough.

This is one of 11 apps found by the WSJ to be secretly sending our data to Facebook without users consent.

I really like what this app can do. It is a good diabetes tracker that works well. What I don’t like - really don’t like - is that it sends my data to Facebook and Google in the background and without my explicit permission. It’s in the fine print of the privacy policy almost at the bottom. Until this sharing is removed or I am allowed to turn it off in the app, I will not be using this app anymore, which is too bad, because as I said, it’s really good at what it does.

Spent my $1.99 to get this app only to find that they want to keep draining my wallet to get necessary and functional features. You’ll keep my two bucks and you can keep your app too.

I purchased this today including the annual fee because it was rated highly. I enrolled, etc. So far I cannot get past their ridiculous ad for a scale. If I hit log glucose levels, more ads & no information. This is useless.

I have used the program for a few years. It works for me

I’ve been using this app for a few years and have been pleased that I could track blood sugar, carbs and most importantly the 24 individual medications that I take daily- several prescriptions are multiple times daily. A few days ago the app was changed and I now have several more keystrokes or ‘buttons to push’ because each medication has to be logged individually, then then add medicine and then save. Previously I could click down my entire drug list on 1 page, then click through the dosages all on 1 page at one time and then save. So I now need to go through adding each drug at a time which is time consuming and frustrating. I have dexterity mobility issues. I wish this new change could be undone. This new change did not enhance this application in any way.

I’ve been using this program for years, but as the new update ruined the ease of usage, I won’t be using it any more. Bye

The recent updates do not make using this product easier. They actually make it more time consuming. The program used to remember my last weight so entering daily weight was only a minor adjustment. Now I have to scroll a much longer time to find the right number. In addition the blood pressure tracker displayed your last reading before you entered a new one so again there might be minimum scrolling. If I have to enter a new figure each time I don’t need the scroll wheel.

Recent update forces each log entry to be done separately. You can no longer enter glucose level and medications in one screen with ease. I’ve been using the app five years and since the acquisition it’s been increasingly difficult to use as they work to use inconvenience to increase paid subscribers.

Purchased and can’t even type in my login information. Don’t waste your money!!!

All in all I hated GB+. To be fair I love Glucose Buddy and switched back to it. The plus version DOES NOT, 1) Record carb times correctly. If I have breakfast at 8:30am it’s fine because that’s the first meal of the day. Lunch however is treated as a continuous part of breakfast. So after you make your Carb entries you have to go back and change all the times to 12:00 pm. Same thing happens for snacks and dinner. I was spending twice as much time on this changing times... NOT CONVENIENT! 2) GB+ took away my ability to enter recipes. I know I’m weird most of my meals are homemade from “ingredients” and not purchased as packages. So when my wife, also weird, makes me SUGAR FREE peanut butter cookies GB+ either requires that She be Keebler, or Wawa, or I have to figure it all out on paper and enter it as a “Quick Add” which is only good for one use... Not Cool... And finally both versions will not link to my fitness tracker, or let me change the step count manually. I have to enter my step count as exercise “Walking” in miles and the calories burned does not change. And since we’re on the subject of exercise it would be nice if you would add “Water Aerobics”... that’s about the only exercise some of us can do because we have really bad backs and knees. So in conclusion, Glucose Buddy ****, could be 5 if you made a couple of changes. Glucose Buddy + 👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻 Sorry guys your “improvements” weren’t... ** at best. Oh! FYI I use an iPhone with the latest iOS.

The new version of glucose buddy isn’t very good to use and I would like the old version or I will have to get some other apps

I have been using Glucose Buddy for over five years. It has always worked well for me. I think it’s the best app out there for tracking health records.

I think you are continuing to improve app. Current update is nice but a few bugs. 1) on blood pressure it doesn’t hold last reading so always having to dial a lot to get to number; ie goes to 105 and I am usually at 150ish on SYS etc. also why can’t the app be the same as blood sugar where you just type in numbers? All in all it is a good app. Haven’t tried some of the aspects; maybe on another review...

Great app to keep track of all my activity. I also appreciate the responsiveness of the support department.

Track blood sugar, comments, blood pressure

It’s the only way I can stay in control of my type 2 diabetes! I wish it had the features the purchase app has but it’s all I really need! Liked it better before they changed it

Just great!

Great app. Makes managing blood sugars super easy.

Rally simple To log info. Can’t figure out graphs though.

I am starting enjoy the updated version A little bit more. I do wish how ever that you have more vendors choices of locations and foods. I wish you add the amount of water you drink to the main page as well.

The developers for Diabetes:M, MySugr, Sugarmate, and Glucose Buddy need to get together to integrate their apps to build a true “ultimate” app for diabetics. I was excited about Glucose Buddy because the design itself is nicer looking than Diabetes:M AND it could actually integrate my CGM data; however, one of the best parts of Diabetes:M is the bolus advisor and insulin on board indicator. Without those features, there’s no point in me using this app since it tracks the same things that the Dexcom and Diabetes:M apps track when used together. I wish I’d read more closely before I paid $2 for the app.

The app will not stay open and needs an update

Does the job simply and easily. That’s all I need. Good work, GB team!

The lack of integration with Dexcom. I get message that says "The client application is not known or is not authorized." And lack.of tech support.

These guys are masters of “updates” of questionable necessity, of giving no instructions about how to navigate the changes in an update, and introducing new features that don’t work. Such is the case with their latest. No clue why they wanted to change it. No help on how to get it to work, and the introduction of new features which prevent you from entering accurate information conveniently. It took me two weeks to figure out the last upgrade, which finally worked acceptably. Now a new upgrade which does not accept glucose readings being entered without exiting that screen and going to another for corrections. It sure looks like you have no diabetics in your software team. Or maybe they’re comatose from inaccurate readings?

This app is great

Great record keeper

I paid to upgrade but good luck getting in touch with anyone when your upgrade doesn’t “take.” They are equivalent to thieves-take your money but don’t deliver anything in return. App functions pretty well-it does what it is supposed to do (most of the time-crashes notwithstanding).

This app was a very good tool to manage my health. The recent update changed it to a completely useless toy. Why they chose to fix something that wasn't broken, I can't imagine. I researched the old app and bought it and made it a part of my health routine. I paid for it and the app they ruined it. I want my money back. OMG, In the Blood pressure graph the use a red dot on a red back ground. I rest my case. Don't buy it until they change it back. Ed M. Ps. The 4 1/2 star rating is for the old app. Let's see if anyone likes the updated version.

They are good about updating this appt. sometimes that is good, sometimes it causes little glitches. They do go back to correct. Scanning foods to get nutritional information is great. I have to count carbs and this makes it much easier. I do wish the carbs could be categorized for each meal so I could see carbs each meal, not just a running total. This has a few features that I don’t use, but for the most part I am happy with the app.

This is the only way that I can request my $2.16 back. I was not aware that you had to have a glucose buddy meter with this app. I used this app in the past and no meter was required, so kindly refund my $2.16 thanks

Good app wish it would sync with my Fitbit inspire2. I use a dexcom g6 and it sync with the dexcom but it seems to be about 6 hours off from the live input from the dexcom. Would like to see better integration between dexcom and Fitbit also I have used the freestyle LibreLink 14 day sensor and it does not sync with glucose buddy.

I really like this app, it’s helped me with my journey of getting off the insulin for my Type 2 diabetes.

If this app would be able to inform you if the foods you’re wanting to buy was “Keto Friendly” like the Carb Manager, it would been a five Star for me.

Easy to use & everything’s in one place: glucose readings, meds, food & steps etc. The food section was an eye opener! Just type in the food or drink item & a comprehensive list of brands, including supermarket, comes up, or you can scan the label with your camera. You can even add the meals you cooked yourself by using recipes & add the ingredients used. I LOVE😍 that: so useful! There just one thing I would like added to this app. Although this syncs. with the Health app on iPhone, it only add those steps counted by the iPhone & not from other sources. I don’t carry my iPhone all the time so, use an activity tracker, & app, that adds steps to the Health app. A more fully integrated sync with the Health app that includes data from all the sources would be more helpful: ALL steps added; not just when I have my iPhone with me! I suggested that using the tech support section under settings & add suggestions.

这次改版升级更改了页面配色。显然不大用心，高光部分太亮，不美观，暗色部分太暗，看不清数据和字。赶快改回来吧。

I couldn’t permanently delete an insulin type so recording BGL/insulin was a chore. So I paid for the + version thinking that would help - no diff!

I cannot even use this app, that I paid for, because it freezes each time I open it

App stopped working after update today, and hate the subscribe option of which I will never use. App opens cannot make entry after updating. I guess I have to find another app that works for me. Bs and med entry’s

It is so easy to use and doesn’t take hardly any time I’m busy working and I can do this in a few minutes thanks I really love it

Besides giving me the opportunity to record daily my sugar numbers it also allows me to record my medication and in addition I can use it to monitor my food intake it’s a wonderful centralize app JP

What I don’t like - really don’t like - is that it sends my data to Facebook and Google in the background and without my explicit permission. It’s in the fine print of the privacy policy almost at the bottom. Until this sharing is removed or I am allowed to turn it off in the app, I will not be using this app anymore, which is too bad, because as I said, it’s really good at what it does.

Spent my $1.99 to get this app only to find that they want to keep draining my wallet to get necessary and functional features. You’ll keep my two bucks and you can keep your app too.

I purchased this today including the annual fee because it was rated highly. I enrolled, etc. So far I cannot get past their ridiculous ad for a scale. If I hit log glucose levels, more ads & no information. This is useless.

I have used the program for a few years. It works for me

I’ve been using this app for a few years and have been pleased that I could track blood sugar, carbs and most importantly the 24 individual medications that I take daily- several prescriptions are multiple times daily. A few days ago the app was changed and I now have several more keystrokes or ‘buttons to push’ because each medication has to be logged individually, then then add medicine and then save. Previously I could click down my entire drug list on 1 page, then click through the dosages all on 1 page at one time and then save. So I now need to go through adding each drug at a time which is time consuming and frustrating. I have dexterity mobility issues. I wish this new change could be undone. This new change did not enhance this application in any way.

I’ve been using this program for years, but as the new update ruined the ease of usage, I won’t be using it any more. Bye

The recent updates do not make using this product easier. They actually make it more time consuming. The program used to remember my last weight so entering daily weight was only a minor adjustment. Now I have to scroll a much longer time to find the right number. In addition the blood pressure tracker displayed your last reading before you entered a new one so again there might be minimum scrolling. If I have to enter a new figure each time I don’t need the scroll wheel.

Recent update forces each log entry to be done separately. You can no longer enter glucose level and medications in one screen with ease. I’ve been using the app five years and since the acquisition it’s been increasingly difficult to use as they work to use inconvenience to increase paid subscribers.

Purchased and can’t even type in my login information. Don’t waste your money!!!

All in all I hated GB+. To be fair I love Glucose Buddy and switched back to it. The plus version DOES NOT, 1) Record carb times correctly. If I have breakfast at 8:30am it’s fine because that’s the first meal of the day. Lunch however is treated as a continuous part of breakfast. So after you make your Carb entries you have to go back and change all the times to 12:00 pm. Same thing happens for snacks and dinner. I was spending twice as much time on this changing times... NOT CONVENIENT! 2) GB+ took away my ability to enter recipes. I know I’m weird most of my meals are homemade from “ingredients” and not purchased as packages. So when my wife, also weird, makes me SUGAR FREE peanut butter cookies GB+ either requires that She be Keebler, or Wawa, or I have to figure it all out on paper and enter it as a “Quick Add” which is only good for one use... Not Cool... And finally both versions will not link to my fitness tracker, or let me change the step count manually. I have to enter my step count as exercise “Walking” in miles and the calories burned does not change. And since we’re on the subject of exercise it would be nice if you would add “Water Aerobics”... that’s about the only exercise some of us can do because we have really bad backs and knees. So in conclusion, Glucose Buddy ****, could be 5 if you made a couple of changes. Glucose Buddy + 👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻 Sorry guys your “improvements” weren’t... ** at best. Oh! FYI I use an iPhone with the latest iOS.

The new version of glucose buddy isn’t very good to use and I would like the old version or I will have to get some other apps

I have been using Glucose Buddy for over five years. It has always worked well for me. I think it’s the best app out there for tracking health records.

I think you are continuing to improve app. Current update is nice but a few bugs. 1) on blood pressure it doesn’t hold last reading so always having to dial a lot to get to number; ie goes to 105 and I am usually at 150ish on SYS etc. also why can’t the app be the same as blood sugar where you just type in numbers? All in all it is a good app. Haven’t tried some of the aspects; maybe on another review...

Great app to keep track of all my activity. I also appreciate the responsiveness of the support department.

Track blood sugar, comments, blood pressure

It’s the only way I can stay in control of my type 2 diabetes! I wish it had the features the purchase app has but it’s all I really need! Liked it better before they changed it

Just great!

Great app. Makes managing blood sugars super easy.

Rally simple To log info. Can’t figure out graphs though.

I am starting enjoy the updated version A little bit more. I do wish how ever that you have more vendors choices of locations and foods. I wish you add the amount of water you drink to the main page as well.

The developers for Diabetes:M, MySugr, Sugarmate, and Glucose Buddy need to get together to integrate their apps to build a true “ultimate” app for diabetics. I was excited about Glucose Buddy because the design itself is nicer looking than Diabetes:M AND it could actually integrate my CGM data; however, one of the best parts of Diabetes:M is the bolus advisor and insulin on board indicator. Without those features, there’s no point in me using this app since it tracks the same things that the Dexcom and Diabetes:M apps track when used together. I wish I’d read more closely before I paid $2 for the app.

The app will not stay open and needs an update

Does the job simply and easily. That’s all I need. Good work, GB team!

The lack of integration with Dexcom. I get message that says "The client application is not known or is not authorized." And lack.of tech support.

These guys are masters of “updates” of questionable necessity, of giving no instructions about how to navigate the changes in an update, and introducing new features that don’t work. Such is the case with their latest. No clue why they wanted to change it. No help on how to get it to work, and the introduction of new features which prevent you from entering accurate information conveniently. It took me two weeks to figure out the last upgrade, which finally worked acceptably. Now a new upgrade which does not accept glucose readings being entered without exiting that screen and going to another for corrections. It sure looks like you have no diabetics in your software team. Or maybe they’re comatose from inaccurate readings?

This app is great

Great record keeper

I paid to upgrade but good luck getting in touch with anyone when your upgrade doesn’t “take.” They are equivalent to thieves-take your money but don’t deliver anything in return. App functions pretty well-it does what it is supposed to do (most of the time-crashes notwithstanding).

This app was a very good tool to manage my health. The recent update changed it to a completely useless toy. Why they chose to fix something that wasn't broken, I can't imagine. I researched the old app and bought it and made it a part of my health routine. I paid for it and the app they ruined it. I want my money back. OMG, In the Blood pressure graph the use a red dot on a red back ground. I rest my case. Don't buy it until they change it back. Ed M. Ps. The 4 1/2 star rating is for the old app. Let's see if anyone likes the updated version.

They are good about updating this appt. sometimes that is good, sometimes it causes little glitches. They do go back to correct. Scanning foods to get nutritional information is great. I have to count carbs and this makes it much easier. I do wish the carbs could be categorized for each meal so I could see carbs each meal, not just a running total. This has a few features that I don’t use, but for the most part I am happy with the app.

After paying 1.99 I learned it was just a trial version. Feeling cheated

Last 2 weeks Glucose Buddy doesn’t give me the daily average. Which is very important for me to monitor my daily average to keep my A1c low.

Great app to track calories, carbs, blood glucose and medications. Exercise options for tracking are good but I wish it would allow for tracking steps without having to add additional app with GOS which didn’t work for me. Just put in options to add steps to tracking.

Easy to use & everything’s in one place: glucose readings, meds, food & steps etc. The food section was an eye opener! Just type in the food or drink item & a comprehensive list of brands, including supermarket, comes up, or you can scan the label with your camera. You can even add the meals you cooked yourself by using recipes & add the ingredients used. I LOVE😍 that: so useful! There just one thing I would like added to this app. Although this syncs. with the Health app on iPhone, it only add those steps counted by the iPhone & not from other sources. I don’t carry my iPhone all the time so, use an activity tracker, & app, that adds steps to the Health app. A more fully integrated sync with the Health app that includes data from all the sources would be more helpful: ALL steps added; not just when I have my iPhone with me! I suggested that using the tech support section under settings & add suggestions.

I couldn’t permanently delete an insulin type so recording BGL/insulin was a chore. So I paid for the + version thinking that would help - no diff!

Medicare requires monthly reporting by the patient to their physician of daily glucose checks. The report from this product, after a brief visit to Excel, make this process easy.

I cannot even use this app, that I paid for, because it freezes each time I open it

App stopped working after update today, and hate the subscribe option of which I will never use. App opens cannot make entry after updating. I guess I have to find another app that works for me. Bs and med entry’s

It is so easy to use and doesn’t take hardly any time I’m busy working and I can do this in a few minutes thanks I really love it

Besides giving me the opportunity to record daily my sugar numbers it also allows me to record my medication and in addition I can use it to monitor my food intake it’s a wonderful centralize app JP

Easy to use!

Please don’t spam for reviews. If I want to give a review I will give one.

Work great until I upgraded.... Now I get multiple entries and no responds from them

One thing that really bugs me is that I cannot remove old medications. Not sure why the app won’t let me edit the list. If you want an app that just tracks BGLs, this is not for you.

I’ve been using this app for many years and was very happy with it. Now not so much. The new model is truly troubled. Since the last release, the app has become too buggy to be of use. Just opening the app takes several minutes. Sometimes it opens and immediately closes. Once it opens entries cannot be made until it’s good and ready. Occasionally it just totally freezes up! I used to be able to estimate my A1C, but no longer unless I want to pay for it! Nope not me! I got so fed up with the bugs that in a fit of rage I deleted the app and all of my data. Wish I could give it less than one star.

The Developer is totally null and void!! I have tried several Glucose Applications and this happens to be my 3rd. This app is the best so far out of all of them. However, it has its limitations and the developers are really negative and none responsive regarding suggestions about improvements!! The help section is totally worthless!!! For an application that boasts being the best, it really needs a lot of work. One of my biggest complaints is it will not link to your Apple Watch App for information about steps, etc. as I wear my watch from when I get up to when I go to bed. I don’t carry my phone with me all the time and you have to for it to track your steps.

I love this app!

I love that this app can sync my blood sugar levels with my Dexcom thru the health app😍

I used to love this app. I even paid for it a few years ago. And now, we’ll it’s a subscription! That’s ridiculous! Many can’t afford this kind of stuff. Not only that, but this app was better and easier the way it was! I miss all the tools I had long ago with this app. I find it hard to use and hard to find information when needed. And keeping track of my A1c is impossible. I can’t afford to pay over and over for this. Medicine costs enough.

It took me two weeks to figure out the last upgrade, which finally worked acceptably. Now a new upgrade which does not accept glucose readings being entered without exiting that screen and going to another for corrections. It sure looks like you have no diabetics in your software team. Or maybe they’re comatose from inaccurate readings?

This app is great

Great record keeper

I paid to upgrade but good luck getting in touch with anyone when your upgrade doesn’t “take.” They are equivalent to thieves-take your money but don’t deliver anything in return. App functions pretty well-it does what it is supposed to do (most of the time-crashes notwithstanding).

This app was a very good tool to manage my health. The recent update changed it to a completely useless toy. Why they chose to fix something that wasn't broken, I can't imagine. I researched the old app and bought it and made it a part of my health routine. I paid for it and the app they ruined it. I want my money back. OMG, In the Blood pressure graph the use a red dot on a red back ground. I rest my case. Don't buy it until they change it back. Ed M. Ps. The 4 1/2 star rating is for the old app. Let's see if anyone likes the updated version.

They are good about updating this appt. sometimes that is good, sometimes it causes little glitches. They do go back to correct. Scanning foods to get nutritional information is great. I have to count carbs and this makes it much easier. I do wish the carbs could be categorized for each meal so I could see carbs each meal, not just a running total. This has a few features that I don’t use, but for the most part I am happy with the app.

After paying 1.99 I learned it was just a trial version. Feeling cheated

Last 2 weeks Glucose Buddy doesn’t give me the daily average. Which is very important for me to monitor my daily average to keep my A1c low.

I couldn’t permanently delete an insulin type so recording BGL/insulin was a chore. So I paid for the + version thinking that would help - no diff!

New update has frozen app’s opening screen. Using iOS 12.1 on iPhone 7+.

A once great app, worth five stars, however the current app either freezes and crashes or just won’t allow you to add your meter results, it works one day and is useless the next very disappointed

Medicare requires monthly reporting by the patient to their physician of daily glucose checks. The report from this product, after a brief visit to Excel, make this process easy.

I cannot even use this app, that I paid for, because it freezes each time I open it

App stopped working after update today, and hate the subscribe option of which I will never use. App opens cannot make entry after updating. I guess I have to find another app that works for me. Bs and med entry’s

It is so easy to use and doesn’t take hardly any time I’m busy working and I can do this in a few minutes thanks I really love it

Besides giving me the opportunity to record daily my sugar numbers it also allows me to record my medication and in addition I can use it to monitor my food intake it’s a wonderful centralize app JP

Easy to use!

Please don’t spam for reviews. If I want to give a review I will give one.

Work great until I upgraded.... Now I get multiple entries and no responds from them

One thing that really bugs me is that I cannot remove old medications. Not sure why the app won’t let me edit the list. If you want an app that just tracks BGLs, this is not for you.

I’ve been using this app for many years and was very happy with it. Now not so much. The new model is truly troubled. Since the last release, the app has become too buggy to be of use. Just opening the app takes several minutes. Sometimes it opens and immediately closes. Once it opens entries cannot be made until it’s good and ready. Occasionally it just totally freezes up! I used to be able to estimate my A1C, but no longer unless I want to pay for it! Nope not me! I got so fed up with the bugs that in a fit of rage I deleted the app and all of my data. Wish I could give it less than one star.

The Developer is totally null and void!! I have tried several Glucose Applications and this happens to be my 3rd. This app is the best so far out of all of them. However, it has its limitations and the developers are really negative and none responsive regarding suggestions about improvements!! The help section is totally worthless!!! For an application that boasts being the best, it really needs a lot of work. One of my biggest complaints is it will not link to your Apple Watch App for information about steps, etc. as I wear my watch from when I get up to when I go to bed. I don’t carry my phone with me all the time and you have to for it to track your steps.

I love this app!

I love that this app can sync my blood sugar levels with my Dexcom thru the health app😍

I used to love this app. I even paid for it a few years ago. And now, we’ll it’s a subscription! That’s ridiculous! Many can’t afford this kind of stuff. Not only that, but this app was better and easier the way it was! I miss all the tools I had long ago with this app. I find it hard to use and hard to find information when needed. And keeping track of my A1c is impossible. I can’t afford to pay over and over for this. Medicine costs enough.

This is one of 11 apps found by the WSJ to be secretly sending our data to Facebook without users consent.

I really like what this app can do. It is a good diabetes tracker that works well.

I purchased this today including the annual fee because it was rated highly. I enrolled, etc. So far I cannot get past their ridiculous ad for a scale. If I hit log glucose levels, more ads & no information. This is useless.

I have used the program for a few years. It works for me

I’ve been using this app for a few years and have been pleased that I could track blood sugar, carbs and most importantly the 24 individual medications that I take daily- several prescriptions are multiple times daily. A few days ago the app was changed and I now have several more keystrokes or ‘buttons to push’ because each medication has to be logged individually, then then add medicine and then save. Previously I could click down my entire drug list on 1 page, then click through the dosages all on 1 page at one time and then save. So I now need to go through adding each drug at a time which is time consuming and frustrating. I have dexterity mobility issues. I wish this new change could be undone.

The recent updates do not make using this product easier. They actually make it more time consuming. The program used to remember my last weight so entering daily weight was only a minor adjustment. Now I have to scroll a much longer time to find the right number. In addition the blood pressure tracker displayed your last reading before you entered a new one so again there might be minimum scrolling. If I have to enter a new figure each time I don’t need the scroll wheel.

Recent update forces each log entry to be done separately. You can no longer enter glucose level and medications in one screen with ease. I’ve been using the app five years and since the acquisition it’s been increasingly difficult to use as they work to use inconvenience to increase paid subscribers.

Purchased and can’t even type in my login information. Don’t waste your money!!!

All in all I hated GB+. To be fair I love Glucose Buddy and switched back to it. The plus version DOES NOT, 1) Record carb times correctly. If I have breakfast at 8:30am it’s fine because that’s the first meal of the day. Lunch however is treated as a continuous part of breakfast. So after you make your Carb entries you have to go back and change all the times to 12:00 pm. Same thing happens for snacks and dinner. I was spending twice as much time on this changing times... NOT CONVENIENT! 2) GB+ took away my ability to enter recipes. I know I’m weird most of my meals are homemade from “ingredients” and not purchased as packages. So when my wife, also weird, makes me SUGAR FREE peanut butter cookies GB+ either requires that She be Keebler, or Wawa, or I have to figure it all out on paper and enter it as a “Quick Add” which is only good for one use... Not Cool... And finally both versions will not link to my fitness tracker, or let me change the step count manually. I have to enter my step count as exercise “Walking” in miles and the calories burned does not change. And since we’re on the subject of exercise it would be nice if you would add “Water Aerobics”... that’s about the only exercise some of us can do because we have really bad backs and knees. So in conclusion, Glucose Buddy ****, could be 5 if you made a couple of changes. Glucose Buddy + 👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻 Sorry guys your “improvements” weren’t... ** at best. Oh! FYI I use an iPhone with the latest iOS.

The new version of glucose buddy isn’t very good to use and I would like the old version or I will have to get some other apps

I have been using Glucose Buddy for over five years. It has always worked well for me. I think it’s the best app out there for tracking health records.

I think you are continuing to improve app. Current update is nice but a few bugs. 1) on blood pressure it doesn’t hold last reading so always having to dial a lot to get to number; ie goes to 105 and I am usually at 150ish on SYS etc. also why can’t the app be the same as blood sugar where you just type in numbers? All in all it is a good app. Haven’t tried some of the aspects; maybe on another review...

Great app to keep track of all my activity. I also appreciate the responsiveness of the support department.

Track blood sugar, comments, blood pressure

It’s the only way I can stay in control of my type 2 diabetes! I wish it had the features the purchase app has but it’s all I really need! Liked it better before they changed it

Just great!

Great app. Makes managing blood sugars super easy.

Rally simple To log info. Can’t figure out graphs though.

I am starting enjoy the updated version A little bit more. I do wish how ever that you have more vendors choices of locations and foods. I wish you add the amount of water you drink to the main page as well.

The developers for Diabetes:M, MySugr, Sugarmate, and Glucose Buddy need to get together to integrate their apps to build a true “ultimate” app for diabetics. I was excited about Glucose Buddy because the design itself is nicer looking than Diabetes:M AND it could actually integrate my CGM data; however, one of the best parts of Diabetes:M is the bolus advisor and insulin on board indicator. Without those features, there’s no point in me using this app since it tracks the same things that the Dexcom and Diabetes:M apps track when used together. I wish I’d read more closely before I paid $2 for the app.

The app will not stay open and needs an update

Does the job simply and easily. That’s all I need. Good work, GB team!

The lack of integration with Dexcom. I get message that says "The client application is not known or is not authorized." And lack.of tech support.

These guys are masters of “updates” of questionable necessity, of giving no instructions about how to navigate the changes in an update, and introducing new features that don’t work. Such is the case with their latest. No clue why they wanted to change it. No help on how to get it to work, and the introduction of new features which prevent you from entering accurate information conveniently. It took me two weeks to figure out the last upgrade, which finally worked acceptably.

Easy to use & everything’s in one place: glucose readings, meds, food & steps etc. The food section was an eye opener! Just type in the food or drink item & a comprehensive list of brands, including supermarket, comes up, or you can scan the label with your camera. You can even add the meals you cooked yourself by using recipes & add the ingredients used. I LOVE😍 that: so useful! There just one thing I would like added to this app. Although this syncs. with the Health app on iPhone, it only add those steps counted by the iPhone & not from other sources. I don’t carry my iPhone all the time so, use an activity tracker, & app, that adds steps to the Health app. A more fully integrated sync with the Health app that includes data from all the sources would be more helpful: ALL steps added; not just when I have my iPhone with me! I suggested that using the tech support section under settings & add suggestions.

I’ve been using this app for a few years and have been pleased that I could track blood sugar, carbs and most importantly the 24 individual medications that I take daily- several prescriptions are multiple times daily.

Previously I could click down my entire drug list on 1 page, then click through the dosages all on 1 page at one time and then save.

If I have to enter a new figure each time I don’t need the scroll wheel.

Recent update forces each log entry to be done separately. You can no longer enter glucose level and medications in one screen with ease. I’ve been using the app five years and since the acquisition it’s been increasingly difficult to use as they work to use inconvenience to increase paid subscribers.

Purchased and can’t even type in my login information. Don’t waste your money!!!

All in all I hated GB+. To be fair I love Glucose Buddy and switched back to it. The plus version DOES NOT, 1) Record carb times correctly. If I have breakfast at 8:30am it’s fine because that’s the first meal of the day. Lunch however is treated as a continuous part of breakfast. So after you make your Carb entries you have to go back and change all the times to 12:00 pm. Same thing happens for snacks and dinner. I was spending twice as much time on this changing times... NOT CONVENIENT! 2) GB+ took away my ability to enter recipes. I know I’m weird most of my meals are homemade from “ingredients” and not purchased as packages. So when my wife, also weird, makes me SUGAR FREE peanut butter cookies GB+ either requires that She be Keebler, or Wawa, or I have to figure it all out on paper and enter it as a “Quick Add” which is only good for one use... Not Cool... And finally both versions will not link to my fitness tracker, or let me change the step count manually. I have to enter my step count as exercise “Walking” in miles and the calories burned does not change. And since we’re on the subject of exercise it would be nice if you would add “Water Aerobics”... that’s about the only exercise some of us can do because we have really bad backs and knees. So in conclusion, Glucose Buddy ****, could be 5 if you made a couple of changes. Glucose Buddy + 👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻 Sorry guys your “improvements” weren’t... ** at best. Oh! FYI I use an iPhone with the latest iOS.

The new version of glucose buddy isn’t very good to use and I would like the old version or I will have to get some other apps

I have been using Glucose Buddy for over five years. It has always worked well for me. I think it’s the best app out there for tracking health records.

I think you are continuing to improve app. Current update is nice but a few bugs. 1) on blood pressure it doesn’t hold last reading so always having to dial a lot to get to number; ie goes to 105 and I am usually at 150ish on SYS etc. also why can’t the app be the same as blood sugar where you just type in numbers? All in all it is a good app. Haven’t tried some of the aspects; maybe on another review...

Great app to keep track of all my activity. I also appreciate the responsiveness of the support department.

Track blood sugar, comments, blood pressure

It’s the only way I can stay in control of my type 2 diabetes! I wish it had the features the purchase app has but it’s all I really need! Liked it better before they changed it

Just great!

Great app. Makes managing blood sugars super easy.

Rally simple To log info. Can’t figure out graphs though.

I am starting enjoy the updated version A little bit more. I do wish how ever that you have more vendors choices of locations and foods. I wish you add the amount of water you drink to the main page as well.

The developers for Diabetes:M, MySugr, Sugarmate, and Glucose Buddy need to get together to integrate their apps to build a true “ultimate” app for diabetics. I was excited about Glucose Buddy because the design itself is nicer looking than Diabetes:M AND it could actually integrate my CGM data; however, one of the best parts of Diabetes:M is the bolus advisor and insulin on board indicator. Without those features, there’s no point in me using this app since it tracks the same things that the Dexcom and Diabetes:M apps track when used together. I wish I’d read more closely before I paid $2 for the app.

The app will not stay open and needs an update

Does the job simply and easily. That’s all I need. Good work, GB team!

The lack of integration with Dexcom. I get message that says "The client application is not known or is not authorized." And lack.of tech support.

These guys are masters of “updates” of questionable necessity, of giving no instructions about how to navigate the changes in an update, and introducing new features that don’t work. Such is the case with their latest. No clue why they wanted to change it. No help on how to get it to work, and the introduction of new features which prevent you from entering accurate information conveniently. It took me two weeks to figure out the last upgrade, which finally worked acceptably. Now a new upgrade which does not accept glucose readings being entered without exiting that screen and going to another for corrections. It sure looks like you have no diabetics in your software team. Or maybe they’re comatose from inaccurate readings?

This app is great

Great record keeper

I paid to upgrade but good luck getting in touch with anyone when your upgrade doesn’t “take.” They are equivalent to thieves-take your money but don’t deliver anything in return. App functions pretty well-it does what it is supposed to do (most of the time-crashes notwithstanding).

This app was a very good tool to manage my health. The recent update changed it to a completely useless toy. Why they chose to fix something that wasn't broken, I can't imagine. I researched the old app and bought it and made it a part of my health routine. I paid for it and the app they ruined it. I want my money back. OMG, In the Blood pressure graph the use a red dot on a red back ground. I rest my case. Don't buy it until they change it back. Ed M. Ps. The 4 1/2 star rating is for the old app. Let's see if anyone likes the updated version.

They are good about updating this appt. sometimes that is good, sometimes it causes little glitches. They do go back to correct. Scanning foods to get nutritional information is great. I have to count carbs and this makes it much easier. I do wish the carbs could be categorized for each meal so I could see carbs each meal, not just a running total. This has a few features that I don’t use, but for the most part I am happy with the app.

After paying 1.99 I learned it was just a trial version. Feeling cheated

Easy to use & everything’s in one place: glucose readings, meds, food & steps etc. The food section was an eye opener! Just type in the food or drink item & a comprehensive list of brands, including supermarket, comes up, or you can scan the label with your camera. You can even add the meals you cooked yourself by using recipes & add the ingredients used. I LOVE😍 that: so useful! There just one thing I would like added to this app. Although this syncs. with the Health app on iPhone, it only add those steps counted by the iPhone & not from other sources. I don’t carry my iPhone all the time so, use an activity tracker, & app, that adds steps to the Health app. A more fully integrated sync with the Health app that includes data from all the sources would be more helpful: ALL steps added; not just when I have my iPhone with me! I suggested that using the tech support section under settings & add suggestions.

这次改版升级更改了页面配色。显然不大用心，高光部分太亮，不美观，暗色部分太暗，看不清数据和字。赶快改回来吧。

I couldn’t permanently delete an insulin type so recording BGL/insulin was a chore. So I paid for the + version thinking that would help - no diff!

A once great app, worth five stars, however the current app either freezes and crashes or just won’t allow you to add your meter results, it works one day and is useless the next very disappointed

Medicare requires monthly reporting by the patient to their physician of daily glucose checks. The report from this product, after a brief visit to Excel, make this process easy.

I cannot even use this app, that I paid for, because it freezes each time I open it

App stopped working after update today, and hate the subscribe option of which I will never use. App opens cannot make entry after updating. I guess I have to find another app that works for me. Bs and med entry’s

It is so easy to use and doesn’t take hardly any time I’m busy working and I can do this in a few minutes thanks I really love it

Besides giving me the opportunity to record daily my sugar numbers it also allows me to record my medication and in addition I can use it to monitor my food intake it’s a wonderful centralize app JP

Easy to use!

Please don’t spam for reviews. If I want to give a review I will give one.

Work great until I upgraded.... Now I get multiple entries and no responds from them

One thing that really bugs me is that I cannot remove old medications. Not sure why the app won’t let me edit the list. If you want an app that just tracks BGLs, this is not for you.

I’ve been using this app for many years and was very happy with it. Now not so much. The new model is truly troubled. Since the last release, the app has become too buggy to be of use. Just opening the app takes several minutes. Sometimes it opens and immediately closes. Once it opens entries cannot be made until it’s good and ready. Occasionally it just totally freezes up! I used to be able to estimate my A1C, but no longer unless I want to pay for it! Nope not me! I got so fed up with the bugs that in a fit of rage I deleted the app and all of my data. Wish I could give it less than one star.

The Developer is totally null and void!! I have tried several Glucose Applications and this happens to be my 3rd. This app is the best so far out of all of them. However, it has its limitations and the developers are really negative and none responsive regarding suggestions about improvements!! The help section is totally worthless!!! For an application that boasts being the best, it really needs a lot of work. One of my biggest complaints is it will not link to your Apple Watch App for information about steps, etc. as I wear my watch from when I get up to when I go to bed. I don’t carry my phone with me all the time and you have to for it to track your steps.

I love this app!

I love that this app can sync my blood sugar levels with my Dexcom thru the health app😍

I used to love this app. I even paid for it a few years ago. And now, we’ll it’s a subscription! That’s ridiculous! Many can’t afford this kind of stuff. Not only that, but this app was better and easier the way it was! I miss all the tools I had long ago with this app. I find it hard to use and hard to find information when needed. And keeping track of my A1c is impossible. I can’t afford to pay over and over for this. Medicine costs enough.

This is one of 11 apps found by the WSJ to be secretly sending our data to Facebook without users consent.

I really like what this app can do. It is a good diabetes tracker that works well. What I don’t like - really don’t like - is that it sends my data to Facebook and Google in the background and without my explicit permission. It’s in the fine print of the privacy policy almost at the bottom. Until this sharing is removed or I am allowed to turn it off in the app, I will not be using this app anymore, which is too bad, because as I said, it’s really good at what it does.

Spent my $1.99 to get this app only to find that they want to keep draining my wallet to get necessary and functional features. You’ll keep my two bucks and you can keep your app too.

I purchased this today including the annual fee because it was rated highly. I enrolled, etc. So far I cannot get past their ridiculous ad for a scale. If I hit log glucose levels, more ads & no information. This is useless.

I have used the program for a few years. It works for me

I’ve been using this app for a few years and have been pleased that I could track blood sugar, carbs and most importantly the 24 individual medications that I take daily- several prescriptions are multiple times daily. A few days ago the app was changed and I now have several more keystrokes or ‘buttons to push’ because each medication has to be logged individually, then then add medicine and then save. Previously I could click down my entire drug list on 1 page, then click through the dosages all on 1 page at one time and then save. So I now need to go through adding each drug at a time which is time consuming and frustrating. I have dexterity mobility issues. I wish this new change could be undone. This new change did not enhance this application in any way.

I’ve been using this program for years, but as the new update ruined the ease of usage, I won’t be using it any more. Bye

OMG, In the Blood pressure graph the use a red dot on a red back ground. I rest my case. Don't buy it until they change it back. Ed M. Ps. The 4 1/2 star rating is for the old app. Let's see if anyone likes the updated version.

They are good about updating this appt. sometimes that is good, sometimes it causes little glitches. They do go back to correct. Scanning foods to get nutritional information is great. I have to count carbs and this makes it much easier. I do wish the carbs could be categorized for each meal so I could see carbs each meal, not just a running total. This has a few features that I don’t use, but for the most part I am happy with the app.

Easy to use & everything’s in one place: glucose readings, meds, food & steps etc. The food section was an eye opener! Just type in the food or drink item & a comprehensive list of brands, including supermarket, comes up, or you can scan the label with your camera. You can even add the meals you cooked yourself by using recipes & add the ingredients used. I LOVE😍 that: so useful! There just one thing I would like added to this app. Although this syncs. with the Health app on iPhone, it only add those steps counted by the iPhone & not from other sources. I don’t carry my iPhone all the time so, use an activity tracker, & app, that adds steps to the Health app. A more fully integrated sync with the Health app that includes data from all the sources would be more helpful: ALL steps added; not just when I have my iPhone with me! I suggested that using the tech support section under settings & add suggestions.

A once great app, worth five stars, however the current app either freezes and crashes or just won’t allow you to add your meter results, it works one day and is useless the next very disappointed

Medicare requires monthly reporting by the patient to their physician of daily glucose checks. The report from this product, after a brief visit to Excel, make this process easy.

I cannot even use this app, that I paid for, because it freezes each time I open it

App stopped working after update today, and hate the subscribe option of which I will never use. App opens cannot make entry after updating. I guess I have to find another app that works for me. Bs and med entry’s

It is so easy to use and doesn’t take hardly any time I’m busy working and I can do this in a few minutes thanks I really love it

Besides giving me the opportunity to record daily my sugar numbers it also allows me to record my medication and in addition I can use it to monitor my food intake it’s a wonderful centralize app JP

Easy to use!

Please don’t spam for reviews. If I want to give a review I will give one.

Work great until I upgraded.... Now I get multiple entries and no responds from them

One thing that really bugs me is that I cannot remove old medications. Not sure why the app won’t let me edit the list. If you want an app that just tracks BGLs, this is not for you.

I’ve been using this app for many years and was very happy with it. Now not so much. The new model is truly troubled. Since the last release, the app has become too buggy to be of use. Just opening the app takes several minutes. Sometimes it opens and immediately closes. Once it opens entries cannot be made until it’s good and ready. Occasionally it just totally freezes up! I used to be able to estimate my A1C, but no longer unless I want to pay for it! Nope not me! I got so fed up with the bugs that in a fit of rage I deleted the app and all of my data. Wish I could give it less than one star.

The Developer is totally null and void!! I have tried several Glucose Applications and this happens to be my 3rd. This app is the best so far out of all of them. However, it has its limitations and the developers are really negative and none responsive regarding suggestions about improvements!! The help section is totally worthless!!! For an application that boasts being the best, it really needs a lot of work. One of my biggest complaints is it will not link to your Apple Watch App for information about steps, etc. as I wear my watch from when I get up to when I go to bed. I don’t carry my phone with me all the time and you have to for it to track your steps.

I love this app!

I love that this app can sync my blood sugar levels with my Dexcom thru the health app😍

I used to love this app. I even paid for it a few years ago. And now, we’ll it’s a subscription! That’s ridiculous! Many can’t afford this kind of stuff. Not only that, but this app was better and easier the way it was! I miss all the tools I had long ago with this app. I find it hard to use and hard to find information when needed. And keeping track of my A1c is impossible. I can’t afford to pay over and over for this. Medicine costs enough.

This is one of 11 apps found by the WSJ to be secretly sending our data to Facebook without users consent.

I really like what this app can do. It is a good diabetes tracker that works well. What I don’t like - really don’t like - is that it sends my data to Facebook and Google in the background and without my explicit permission. It’s in the fine print of the privacy policy almost at the bottom. Until this sharing is removed or I am allowed to turn it off in the app, I will not be using this app anymore, which is too bad, because as I said, it’s really good at what it does.

Spent my $1.99 to get this app only to find that they want to keep draining my wallet to get necessary and functional features. You’ll keep my two bucks and you can keep your app too.

I purchased this today including the annual fee because it was rated highly. I enrolled, etc. So far I cannot get past their ridiculous ad for a scale. If I hit log glucose levels, more ads & no information. This is useless.

I have used the program for a few years. It works for me

I’ve been using this app for a few years and have been pleased that I could track blood sugar, carbs and most importantly the 24 individual medications that I take daily- several prescriptions are multiple times daily. A few days ago the app was changed and I now have several more keystrokes or ‘buttons to push’ because each medication has to be logged individually, then then add medicine and then save. Previously I could click down my entire drug list on 1 page, then click through the dosages all on 1 page at one time and then save. So I now need to go through adding each drug at a time which is time consuming and frustrating. I have dexterity mobility issues. I wish this new change could be undone. This new change did not enhance this application in any way.

I’ve been using this program for years, but as the new update ruined the ease of usage, I won’t be using it any more. Bye

The recent updates do not make using this product easier. They actually make it more time consuming. The program used to remember my last weight so entering daily weight was only a minor adjustment. Now I have to scroll a much longer time to find the right number. In addition the blood pressure tracker displayed your last reading before you entered a new one so again there might be minimum scrolling. If I have to enter a new figure each time I don’t need the scroll wheel.

Recent update forces each log entry to be done separately. You can no longer enter glucose level and medications in one screen with ease. I’ve been using the app five years and since the acquisition it’s been increasingly difficult to use as they work to use inconvenience to increase paid subscribers.

Purchased and can’t even type in my login information. Don’t waste your money!!!

All in all I hated GB+. To be fair I love Glucose Buddy and switched back to it. The plus version DOES NOT, 1) Record carb times correctly. If I have breakfast at 8:30am it’s fine because that’s the first meal of the day. Lunch however is treated as a continuous part of breakfast. So after you make your Carb entries you have to go back and change all the times to 12:00 pm. Same thing happens for snacks and dinner. I was spending twice as much time on this changing times... NOT CONVENIENT! 2) GB+ took away my ability to enter recipes. I know I’m weird most of my meals are homemade from “ingredients” and not purchased as packages. So when my wife, also weird, makes me SUGAR FREE peanut butter cookies GB+ either requires that She be Keebler, or Wawa, or I have to figure it all out on paper and enter it as a “Quick Add” which is only good for one use... Not Cool... And finally both versions will not link to my fitness tracker, or let me change the step count manually. I have to enter my step count as exercise “Walking” in miles and the calories burned does not change. And since we’re on the subject of exercise it would be nice if you would add “Water Aerobics”... that’s about the only exercise some of us can do because we have really bad backs and knees. So in conclusion, Glucose Buddy ****, could be 5 if you made a couple of changes. Glucose Buddy + 👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻 Sorry guys your “improvements” weren’t... ** at best. Oh! FYI I use an iPhone with the latest iOS.

The new version of glucose buddy isn’t very good to use and I would like the old version or I will have to get some other apps

I have been using Glucose Buddy for over five years. It has always worked well for me. I think it’s the best app out there for tracking health records.

I think you are continuing to improve app. Current update is nice but a few bugs. 1) on blood pressure it doesn’t hold last reading so always having to dial a lot to get to number; ie goes to 105 and I am usually at 150ish on SYS etc. also why can’t the app be the same as blood sugar where you just type in numbers? All in all it is a good app. Haven’t tried some of the aspects; maybe on another review...

Great app to keep track of all my activity. I also appreciate the responsiveness of the support department.

Track blood sugar, comments, blood pressure

It’s the only way I can stay in control of my type 2 diabetes! I wish it had the features the purchase app has but it’s all I really need! Liked it better before they changed it

I have been using this app for a few years now and even bought the suggested Bluetooth scale that was working great but now it won’t sync to it. Also every time I put in my weight it asks me to update my profile weight. I am hoping this is a glitch that you can fix.

Just great!

Great app. Makes managing blood sugars super easy.

Rally simple To log info. Can’t figure out graphs though.

I am starting enjoy the updated version A little bit more. I do wish how ever that you have more vendors choices of locations and foods. I wish you add the amount of water you drink to the main page as well.

The developers for Diabetes:M, MySugr, Sugarmate, and Glucose Buddy need to get together to integrate their apps to build a true “ultimate” app for diabetics. I was excited about Glucose Buddy because the design itself is nicer looking than Diabetes:M AND it could actually integrate my CGM data; however, one of the best parts of Diabetes:M is the bolus advisor and insulin on board indicator. Without those features, there’s no point in me using this app since it tracks the same things that the Dexcom and Diabetes:M apps track when used together. I wish I’d read more closely before I paid $2 for the app.

The app will not stay open and needs an update

Does the job simply and easily. That’s all I need. Good work, GB team!

The lack of integration with Dexcom. I get message that says "The client application is not known or is not authorized." And lack.of tech support.

These guys are masters of “updates” of questionable necessity, of giving no instructions about how to navigate the changes in an update, and introducing new features that don’t work. Such is the case with their latest. No clue why they wanted to change it. No help on how to get it to work, and the introduction of new features which prevent you from entering accurate information conveniently. It took me two weeks to figure out the last upgrade, which finally worked acceptably. Now a new upgrade which does not accept glucose readings being entered without exiting that screen and going to another for corrections. It sure looks like you have no diabetics in your software team. Or maybe they’re comatose from inaccurate readings?

If it did this it would be perfect

This app is great

Great record keeper

I paid to upgrade but good luck getting in touch with anyone when your upgrade doesn’t “take.” They are equivalent to thieves-take your money but don’t deliver anything in return. App functions pretty well-it does what it is supposed to do (most of the time-crashes notwithstanding).

This app was a very good tool to manage my health. The recent update changed it to a completely useless toy. Why they chose to fix something that wasn't broken, I can't imagine. I researched the old app and bought it and made it a part of my health routine. I paid for it and the app they ruined it. I want my money back.

The recent updates do not make using this product easier. They actually make it more time consuming. The program used to remember my last weight so entering daily weight was only a minor adjustment. Now I have to scroll a much longer time to find the right number. In addition the blood pressure tracker displayed your last reading before you entered a new one so again there might be minimum scrolling. If I have to enter a new figure each time I don’t need the scroll wheel.

Recent update forces each log entry to be done separately. You can no longer enter glucose level and medications in one screen with ease. I’ve been using the app five years and since the acquisition it’s been increasingly difficult to use as they work to use inconvenience to increase paid subscribers.

All in all I hated GB+. To be fair I love Glucose Buddy and switched back to it. The plus version DOES NOT, 1) Record carb times correctly.

I have to enter my step count as exercise “Walking” in miles and the calories burned does not change.

The new version of glucose buddy isn’t very good to use and I would like the old version or I will have to get some other apps

I have been using Glucose Buddy for over five years. It has always worked well for me. I think it’s the best app out there for tracking health records.

I think you are continuing to improve app. Current update is nice but a few bugs. 1) on blood pressure it doesn’t hold last reading so always having to dial a lot to get to number; ie goes to 105 and I am usually at 150ish on SYS etc. also why can’t the app be the same as blood sugar where you just type in numbers? All in all it is a good app. Haven’t tried some of the aspects; maybe on another review...

Track blood sugar, comments, blood pressure

It’s the only way I can stay in control of my type 2 diabetes! I wish it had the features the purchase app has but it’s all I really need! Liked it better before they changed it

I have been using this app for a few years now and even bought the suggested Bluetooth scale that was working great but now it won’t sync to it. Also every time I put in my weight it asks me to update my profile weight. I am hoping this is a glitch that you can fix.

I couldn’t permanently delete an insulin type so recording BGL/insulin was a chore. So I paid for the + version thinking that would help - no diff!

A once great app, worth five stars, however the current app either freezes and crashes or just won’t allow you to add your meter results, it works one day and is useless the next very disappointed

Medicare requires monthly reporting by the patient to their physician of daily glucose checks. The report from this product, after a brief visit to Excel, make this process easy.

I cannot even use this app, that I paid for, because it freezes each time I open it

App stopped working after update today, and hate the subscribe option of which I will never use. App opens cannot make entry after updating. I guess I have to find another app that works for me. Bs and med entry’s

It is so easy to use and doesn’t take hardly any time I’m busy working and I can do this in a few minutes thanks I really love it

Besides giving me the opportunity to record daily my sugar numbers it also allows me to record my medication and in addition I can use it to monitor my food intake it’s a wonderful centralize app JP

Easy to use!

Please don’t spam for reviews. If I want to give a review I will give one.

Work great until I upgraded.... Now I get multiple entries and no responds from them

One thing that really bugs me is that I cannot remove old medications. Not sure why the app won’t let me edit the list. If you want an app that just tracks BGLs, this is not for you.

I’ve been using this app for many years and was very happy with it. Now not so much. The new model is truly troubled. Since the last release, the app has become too buggy to be of use. Just opening the app takes several minutes. Sometimes it opens and immediately closes. Once it opens entries cannot be made until it’s good and ready. Occasionally it just totally freezes up! I used to be able to estimate my A1C, but no longer unless I want to pay for it! Nope not me! I got so fed up with the bugs that in a fit of rage I deleted the app and all of my data. Wish I could give it less than one star.

The Developer is totally null and void!! I have tried several Glucose Applications and this happens to be my 3rd. This app is the best so far out of all of them. However, it has its limitations and the developers are really negative and none responsive regarding suggestions about improvements!! The help section is totally worthless!!! For an application that boasts being the best, it really needs a lot of work. One of my biggest complaints is it will not link to your Apple Watch App for information about steps, etc. as I wear my watch from when I get up to when I go to bed. I don’t carry my phone with me all the time and you have to for it to track your steps.

I love this app!

I love that this app can sync my blood sugar levels with my Dexcom thru the health app😍

I used to love this app. I even paid for it a few years ago. And now, we’ll it’s a subscription! That’s ridiculous! Many can’t afford this kind of stuff. Not only that, but this app was better and easier the way it was! I miss all the tools I had long ago with this app. I find it hard to use and hard to find information when needed. And keeping track of my A1c is impossible. I can’t afford to pay over and over for this. Medicine costs enough.

This is one of 11 apps found by the WSJ to be secretly sending our data to Facebook without users consent.

I really like what this app can do. It is a good diabetes tracker that works well. What I don’t like - really don’t like - is that it sends my data to Facebook and Google in the background and without my explicit permission. It’s in the fine print of the privacy policy almost at the bottom. Until this sharing is removed or I am allowed to turn it off in the app, I will not be using this app anymore, which is too bad, because as I said, it’s really good at what it does.

Spent my $1.99 to get this app only to find that they want to keep draining my wallet to get necessary and functional features. You’ll keep my two bucks and you can keep your app too.

I purchased this today including the annual fee because it was rated highly. I enrolled, etc. So far I cannot get past their ridiculous ad for a scale. If I hit log glucose levels, more ads & no information. This is useless.

I have used the program for a few years. It works for me

I’ve been using this app for a few years and have been pleased that I could track blood sugar, carbs and most importantly the 24 individual medications that I take daily- several prescriptions are multiple times daily. A few days ago the app was changed and I now have several more keystrokes or ‘buttons to push’ because each medication has to be logged individually, then then add medicine and then save. Previously I could click down my entire drug list on 1 page, then click through the dosages all on 1 page at one time and then save.

Easy to use & everything’s in one place: glucose readings, meds, food & steps etc. The food section was an eye opener! Just type in the food or drink item & a comprehensive list of brands, including supermarket, comes up, or you can scan the label with your camera. You can even add the meals you cooked yourself by using recipes & add the ingredients used. I LOVE😍 that: so useful! There just one thing I would like added to this app. Although this syncs. with the Health app on iPhone, it only add those steps counted by the iPhone & not from other sources. I don’t carry my iPhone all the time so, use an activity tracker, & app, that adds steps to the Health app. A more fully integrated sync with the Health app that includes data from all the sources would be more helpful: ALL steps added; not just when I have my iPhone with me! I suggested that using the tech support section under settings & add suggestions.

I don’t carry my iPhone all the time so, use an activity tracker, & app, that adds steps to the Health app. A more fully integrated sync with the Health app that includes data from all the sources would be more helpful: ALL steps added; not just when I have my iPhone with me! I suggested that using the tech support section under settings & add suggestions.

这次改版升级更改了页面配色。显然不大用心，高光部分太亮，不美观，暗色部分太暗，看不清数据和字。赶快改回来吧。

I couldn’t permanently delete an insulin type so recording BGL/insulin was a chore. So I paid for the + version thinking that would help - no diff!

Easy to use & everything’s in one place: glucose readings, meds, food & steps etc. The food section was an eye opener! Just type in the food or drink item & a comprehensive list of brands, including supermarket, comes up, or you can scan the label with your camera.

I think the app continues to keep me on track with my readings through out the day. Especially now that I’m taking insulin before meals. I also enjoy the meal finder, this allows me to plan better with meal choices.

I cannot even use this app, that I paid for, because it freezes each time I open it

App stopped working after update today, and hate the subscribe option of which I will never use. App opens cannot make entry after updating. I guess I have to find another app that works for me. Bs and med entry’s

It is so easy to use and doesn’t take hardly any time I’m busy working and I can do this in a few minutes thanks I really love it

Besides giving me the opportunity to record daily my sugar numbers it also allows me to record my medication and in addition I can use it to monitor my food intake it’s a wonderful centralize app JP

Easy to use!

Please don’t spam for reviews. If I want to give a review I will give one.

Work great until I upgraded.... Now I get multiple entries and no responds from them

One thing that really bugs me is that I cannot remove old medications. Not sure why the app won’t let me edit the list. If you want an app that just tracks BGLs, this is not for you.

I’ve been using this app for many years and was very happy with it. Now not so much. The new model is truly troubled. Since the last release, the app has become too buggy to be of use. Just opening the app takes several minutes. Sometimes it opens and immediately closes. Once it opens entries cannot be made until it’s good and ready. Occasionally it just totally freezes up! I used to be able to estimate my A1C, but no longer unless I want to pay for it! Nope not me! I got so fed up with the bugs that in a fit of rage I deleted the app and all of my data. Wish I could give it less than one star.

The Developer is totally null and void!! I have tried several Glucose Applications and this happens to be my 3rd. This app is the best so far out of all of them. However, it has its limitations and the developers are really negative and none responsive regarding suggestions about improvements!! The help section is totally worthless!!! For an application that boasts being the best, it really needs a lot of work. One of my biggest complaints is it will not link to your Apple Watch App for information about steps, etc. as I wear my watch from when I get up to when I go to bed. I don’t carry my phone with me all the time and you have to for it to track your steps.

I love this app!

I love that this app can sync my blood sugar levels with my Dexcom thru the health app😍

I used to love this app. I even paid for it a few years ago. And now, we’ll it’s a subscription! That’s ridiculous! Many can’t afford this kind of stuff. Not only that, but this app was better and easier the way it was! I miss all the tools I had long ago with this app. I find it hard to use and hard to find information when needed. And keeping track of my A1c is impossible. I can’t afford to pay over and over for this. Medicine costs enough.

This is one of 11 apps found by the WSJ to be secretly sending our data to Facebook without users consent.

I really like what this app can do. It is a good diabetes tracker that works well. What I don’t like - really don’t like - is that it sends my data to Facebook and Google in the background and without my explicit permission. It’s in the fine print of the privacy policy almost at the bottom. Until this sharing is removed or I am allowed to turn it off in the app, I will not be using this app anymore, which is too bad, because as I said, it’s really good at what it does.

Spent my $1.99 to get this app only to find that they want to keep draining my wallet to get necessary and functional features. You’ll keep my two bucks and you can keep your app too.

I purchased this today including the annual fee because it was rated highly. I enrolled, etc. So far I cannot get past their ridiculous ad for a scale. If I hit log glucose levels, more ads & no information. This is useless.

I have used the program for a few years. It works for me

I’ve been using this app for a few years and have been pleased that I could track blood sugar, carbs and most importantly the 24 individual medications that I take daily- several prescriptions are multiple times daily. A few days ago the app was changed and I now have several more keystrokes or ‘buttons to push’ because each medication has to be logged individually, then then add medicine and then save. Previously I could click down my entire drug list on 1 page, then click through the dosages all on 1 page at one time and then save. So I now need to go through adding each drug at a time which is time consuming and frustrating. I have dexterity mobility issues. I wish this new change could be undone. This new change did not enhance this application in any way.

I’ve been using this program for years, but as the new update ruined the ease of usage, I won’t be using it any more. Bye

The recent updates do not make using this product easier. They actually make it more time consuming. The program used to remember my last weight so entering daily weight was only a minor adjustment. Now I have to scroll a much longer time to find the right number. In addition the blood pressure tracker displayed your last reading before you entered a new one so again there might be minimum scrolling. If I have to enter a new figure each time I don’t need the scroll wheel.

Recent update forces each log entry to be done separately. You can no longer enter glucose level and medications in one screen with ease. I’ve been using the app five years and since the acquisition it’s been increasingly difficult to use as they work to use inconvenience to increase paid subscribers.

Purchased and can’t even type in my login information. Don’t waste your money!!!

All in all I hated GB+. To be fair I love Glucose Buddy and switched back to it. The plus version DOES NOT, 1) Record carb times correctly. If I have breakfast at 8:30am it’s fine because that’s the first meal of the day. Lunch however is treated as a continuous part of breakfast. So after you make your Carb entries you have to go back and change all the times to 12:00 pm. Same thing happens for snacks and dinner. I was spending twice as much time on this changing times... NOT CONVENIENT! 2) GB+ took away my ability to enter recipes. I know I’m weird most of my meals are homemade from “ingredients” and not purchased as packages. So when my wife, also weird, makes me SUGAR FREE peanut butter cookies GB+ either requires that She be Keebler, or Wawa, or I have to figure it all out on paper and enter it as a “Quick Add” which is only good for one use... Not Cool... And finally both versions will not link to my fitness tracker, or let me change the step count manually. I have to enter my step count as exercise “Walking” in miles and the calories burned does not change. And since we’re on the subject of exercise it would be nice if you would add “Water Aerobics”... that’s about the only exercise some of us can do because we have really bad backs and knees. So in conclusion, Glucose Buddy ****, could be 5 if you made a couple of changes. Glucose Buddy + 👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻 Sorry guys your “improvements” weren’t... ** at best. Oh! FYI I use an iPhone with the latest iOS.

The new version of glucose buddy isn’t very good to use and I would like the old version or I will have to get some other apps

I have been using Glucose Buddy for over five years. It has always worked well for me. I think it’s the best app out there for tracking health records.

I think you are continuing to improve app. Current update is nice but a few bugs. 1) on blood pressure it doesn’t hold last reading so always having to dial a lot to get to number; ie goes to 105 and I am usually at 150ish on SYS etc. also why can’t the app be the same as blood sugar where you just type in numbers? All in all it is a good app. Haven’t tried some of the aspects; maybe on another review...

Great app to keep track of all my activity. I also appreciate the responsiveness of the support department.

Track blood sugar, comments, blood pressure

It’s the only way I can stay in control of my type 2 diabetes! I wish it had the features the purchase app has but it’s all I really need! Liked it better before they changed it

I have been using this app for a few years now and even bought the suggested Bluetooth scale that was working great but now it won’t sync to it. Also every time I put in my weight it asks me to update my profile weight. I am hoping this is a glitch that you can fix.

Just great!

Great app. Makes managing blood sugars super easy.

Rally simple To log info. Can’t figure out graphs though.

I am starting enjoy the updated version A little bit more. I do wish how ever that you have more vendors choices of locations and foods. I wish you add the amount of water you drink to the main page as well.

The developers for Diabetes:M, MySugr, Sugarmate, and Glucose Buddy need to get together to integrate their apps to build a true “ultimate” app for diabetics. I was excited about Glucose Buddy because the design itself is nicer looking than Diabetes:M AND it could actually integrate my CGM data; however, one of the best parts of Diabetes:M is the bolus advisor and insulin on board indicator. Without those features, there’s no point in me using this app since it tracks the same things that the Dexcom and Diabetes:M apps track when used together. I wish I’d read more closely before I paid $2 for the app.

The app will not stay open and needs an update

Does the job simply and easily. That’s all I need. Good work, GB team!

The lack of integration with Dexcom. I get message that says "The client application is not known or is not authorized." And lack.of tech support.

These guys are masters of “updates” of questionable necessity, of giving no instructions about how to navigate the changes in an update, and introducing new features that don’t work. Such is the case with their latest. No clue why they wanted to change it. No help on how to get it to work, and the introduction of new features which prevent you from entering accurate information conveniently. It took me two weeks to figure out the last upgrade, which finally worked acceptably. Now a new upgrade which does not accept glucose readings being entered without exiting that screen and going to another for corrections. It sure looks like you have no diabetics in your software team. Or maybe they’re comatose from inaccurate readings?

My phone just installed iOS 13.5.1 and Glucose Buddy (+ and regular) immediately turns itself off after tapping the icon.

If it did this it would be perfect

This app is great

Great record keeper

I paid to upgrade but good luck getting in touch with anyone when your upgrade doesn’t “take.” They are equivalent to thieves-take your money but don’t deliver anything in return. App functions pretty well-it does what it is supposed to do (most of the time-crashes notwithstanding).

This app was a very good tool to manage my health. The recent update changed it to a completely useless toy. Why they chose to fix something that wasn't broken, I can't imagine. I researched the old app and bought it and made it a part of my health routine. I paid for it and the app they ruined it. I want my money back. OMG, In the Blood pressure graph the use a red dot on a red back ground. I rest my case. Don't buy it until they change it back. Ed M. Ps. The 4 1/2 star rating is for the old app. Let's see if anyone likes the updated version.

They are good about updating this appt. sometimes that is good, sometimes it causes little glitches. They do go back to correct. Scanning foods to get nutritional information is great. I have to count carbs and this makes it much easier. I do wish the carbs could be categorized for each meal so I could see carbs each meal, not just a running total. This has a few features that I don’t use, but for the most part I am happy with the app.

I couldn’t permanently delete an insulin type so recording BGL/insulin was a chore. So I paid for the + version thinking that would help - no diff!

Easy to use & everything’s in one place: glucose readings, meds, food & steps etc. The food section was an eye opener! Just type in the food or drink item & a comprehensive list of brands, including supermarket, comes up, or you can scan the label with your camera. You can even add the meals you cooked yourself by using recipes & add the ingredients used. I LOVE😍 that: so useful!
