Purchased Today….Needs Sync Improvement…...

I am looking for an app that will track my glucose, and provide reports that I can send to my doctor. Ive been using "My Net Diary" to track my daily diet. Not particularly happy that blood glucose cannot be tracked on my iPhone. Would consider using this app to track my diet, but the sync procedure is entirely manual. The folks at Digital Altitudes should contact the "My Net Diary" developers to learn how to automatically sync the desktop and handheld device immediately upon entry. I can enter a meal on my handheld, then check my desktop just seconds later. All synced. I do not have to make sure my Wifi is on, or my app is open. A $30 app should be able to do that. Still playing with the app to determine if it was a waste of time and money.

Ive been using this app for a few days now. Thought it would be fair to update my evaluation. After a day of using the app, I decieded that I simply paid the price of admission just to get an Excel spreadsheet(s)…..but it offers some REALLY NICE spreadsheets. I love the interface. Very easy to use,a nd intuitive. Hardly read the instructions for use. I am not using the food part of this application. Teh database seems weak to me, especially compared to My Net Diary and Calorie King. This might be an unfair criticism. Ive had three months to create my own food list on My Net Diary, and used information pulled form Calorie King very liberally. Still both those apps cater to weight loss. No problem, it is just one icon away on my iPhone, with iMac back up,

It would have been a great option have a Diabetes Pilot-Lite app that omitted the food entry, and drop the price by $20. But, Hey, everyone has to cover expenses and earn a living.

I do wish that automatic syncing would become the standard for Diabetes Pilot. For now, Ill go through the extra steps to force sync this app. Upgraded my rating to four stars, I find this app very useful, and helpful toward my goal of better health. After a few days use, I do not regret the purchase.
