Glucose Monitor Phone App
Dexcom G6 CGM system is the next generation in glucose monitoring. The system is different from traditional glucometers because there are no finger-pricks. Glucose numbers are sent to your smart device. The device has customizable alerts and users can be alerted when glucose levels are going high or low. The device can be used on patients as young as 2 years old. Data can be shared with up to 5 followers.
This diabetes-management and weight-loss app (it works similarly on Apple and Android devices, despite the separate names) features a log for blood glucose readings, A1C results, food, exercise, blood pressure levels, and medication use plus reminders to check your blood glucose. Upgrade to the “maximum” version for integration with fitness trackers (such as Jawbone and Fitbit) and extra features—nutrition planning and more charts and reports. This is for people with type 1 or type 2 diabetes and for those seeking to lose weight.
The Glooko device is compatible with 50+ meters and popular insulin pumps, CGMs, and fitness trackers. You can synch your data to your iOS or Android smartphone, share your data with your diabetes care team, and get personalized insight to improve diabetes management. The apps let you track food, medications, insulin, exercise and more to create a digital logbook.
Cons: Glucose Buddy does not sync with meters, continuous glucose monitors (CGMs), or pumps. Both Android and Apple users can access glucosebuddy.com, but only Apple users can sync their app with the website; Android users have to manually input their log on the web portal. There is no way to back up your data, so if you lose your phone and you haven’t manually entered logbook data on the website (or if your Apple device didn’t sync), you’ll have to start over. A built-in calorie tracker and food database is planned, but no release date has been set yet.
Cost: Free. MySugr PRO is $2.99 per month, or $27.99 per year. Or, for $19.99 per month, or $199.99 per year, get MySugr PRO with in-app counseling by certified diabetes educators (Apple devices only; Android compatibility to come).
One Drop provides for food and exercise logging, plus peer and expert support, all in one place. This app is for people with type 1 diabetes and insulin-dependent type 2. Good for more tech-savvy users.
Baby Monitor Phone App Android
Pros: Sugar Sense provides a community support forum for people with type 2 diabetes and offers diabetes prevention information. The app works with iHealth’s Smart Gluco-Monitoring System and its iHealth app, but only on Apple devices. It pulls data from the My Diet Diary app and from fitness trackers such as FitBit, Jawbone, and iHealth, and it sends data to Apple’s Health app.
