Layout is easy...wish I could print the graph
I have a daughter with type one diabetes. We are running all the time and I needed a portable BG diary application to input her information into. I tried several other apps, but I needed something quick and easy. The layout is what I like best about this application. The "home" is layed out in an easy to input "go down the list and input" style. I use the insulin setting where I can put in decimals as my daughter is on a Levemir/pump untethered regimin. The different colors for the different insulins (which are already listed...thank you) is very helpful. The way the information you input is displayed in the "list" is also what I like. Other applications just listed the information one right under the other; some had an indicator on the side as to whether is was insulin, carbs, or BG. This app lists one on top of the other but it keeps the BG in one column, the carbs in the next column and the insulin (in color) on the third column. The "day" segments are very helpful as well. The info is much easier to look at and read! It also puts BG in red if it is out of the range you set. I like the feature where you can specify where the shot was given. I know there is not an official food list or place to make a list of food but this is no problem for me as I hated making a list on other apps and then having to scroll through the list to put in every food she ate...again too much time to do that!!! I just put the food she ate into the notes. I like that I can add "time of day categories" as I use the "during night" and "ramdom" if it is an odd check for highs or lows. I can export the information into a file where I copy and paste the info into my own graph that I created (although I REALLY wish the graph on the iPod could be printed as I REALLY like that graph!!!). I wish the date and time on the export file were separated, though, as it would be easier to work with in creating my own graph. I am sold on this application; easy and quick to use. Just perfect for me!
