I'm wondering, is there any apps out there that help with glucose monitoring?

I'm trying to keep on top of my blood sugar levels and don't get along with writing it down in a book. (I forget the book, but my phone never leaves my side) is there any that anyone can suggest?
 
I use the DAFNE app; but you have to have gone on one of their courses to get access to that. It works our your weekly / fortnightly / monthly / 3-monthly averages from each test, which is really handy to keep a close check if your BG's are fluctuating. I also keep a DAFNE diary which I can take to reviews etc for easy reference.
 
Mysugr the free one is really good it gives daily, weekly, etc average and a hba1c forecast

I use an App called Sugar Sense to track BG readings - very simple to use, and stores data by, day, week, month etc. - takes averages and predicts Hba1c ( though I wouldn't vouch for that being 100% accurate ). I also use MyFitnessPal to track food intake - but again, I don't take everything it cranks out as 100% accurate - for me both of these give me enough visibility to be able to understand where I am. I also transfer data to Excel spreadsheet to graph etc., but that's just the geek in me !
 
MySugr, InRange and Diabetes:M are all apps that I know a lot of people use. These also have pretty good bolus calculators.

You can also look at the Contour Next:One meter, which comes with it's own app and will upload all your treatment data to the app.
