Diabetes is one of the most prominent diseases in the United States. When you are diagnosed with diabetes, you become responsible for checking and tracking your blood sugar throughout the day. No matter when you got diagnosed, it can be hard to remember to check your blood sugar, especially on the road. You no longer have to worry about forgetting to track your blood sugar because the apps will do it for you. All of these apps listed below track your blood sugar and create a logbook of your insulin dosages. No matter which app you choose, they will all help you keep track.
#1. MySugr
MySugr is the most recommended app for diabetes and it is free to download for Android and iOS users. The main features of this app include tracking your blood sugar, medicines, and meals. It is extremely easy to use because all you have to do is type in the data after you check your blood sugar or take your medicine. The best part about this app is the ability for you to set reminders for checking your blood sugar. This app is mainly free, but you do have the option to pay for more advanced features if you wish.
#2. Diabetes: M
If you were recently diagnosed with Diabetes, then this is the app for you. Diabetes: M will calculate your insulin dose after you log in what you are eating, how much you are eating, and your measured glucose. Once it has all of this information, it will calculate the best insulin dose for you. Not only will this app tell you how much insulin to take, but it will also track all of your Diabetes related data. This app is for Android and iOS users.
#3. Center Health
Center Health combines the best features of MySugr and Diabetes: M and combines them into one app while also offering you more features. It is free to use and is available on the Web, for Android users, and iOS users. One of the added elements of Center Health is Aria. Aria is a smart AI that analyzes your logbook to warn you of any possible trends that might appear. It has the ability to warn you when something might be off about your dose. The next feature that makes this app stand out is Nano, which is an add-on glucometer that plugs into your phone. This gives you the ability to test your blood sugar and the data will automatically be stored in the app. You will have to pay for Nano and the strips, but it will definitely make your life easier not having to worry about manually logging your blood sugar information each time.
All three of these apps come with their own positive and negative aspects. Luckily, you cannot go wrong with either of the options. Choosing any of them will allow for an easier time when it comes to tracking your Diabetes related data.
