Hi can anyone recommend a simple easy to use app for my phone where I can record and monitor my bs insulin and carbs. I'm not a big technology person so ease of use important. Thanks

mySugr is the best one out there in my opinion, I've tried several and this one is easy to use, fun, and best of all free!

Is that available on andriod? The kids version comes up but looking on that link there's an adult companion version? It takes me to itunes though!:roll:

Looks like they are still working on the Companion version for Android.

Is the Companion app also available for Android?
We’re hard at work on this.
The Companion App is a medical device. Therefore, it must meet several standards and requirements. This is a very time-consuming process. Furthermore, we want the Android version to reach the same quality level as its iOS brother. Please bear with us – your patience will pay off.

The grown-up version is still a little bit child-like IMO ;) There should be a feature to turn the monster off :crazy:

ManageBGL is a good app for Android. You have to join it first though to find out what it does for you but its a good bolus wizard and will also help guide in using the correct basal rate for the bg levels entered as data and also help adjust the carb ratios correctly.

I e-mailed the MySugr people to ask when the Companion would be available and the reply said they hoped by the end of this year or early in the new year.

I currently use onTrack which is available on Android and is free. I've used it for 3 years but unfortunately recent "upgrades" are not to my liking but if you've not seen it before its worth a look as it may be just what you want
