Hi All,
Since being told I am diabetic a couple of weeks ago I have been playing with the Carbs and Cals app on my iPhone to record my meals. Today I met up with my cousin who has Carbs and Cals on their Android phone. We have noticed several differences between the two platforms. The android app has a diabetic section for recording BG's but the iPhone doesn't for example which in itself is not a great problem.
Of more concern is the food values are different between each app, for example:
Broccoli(Boiled) 80 gram portion
android: Carbs 1g, Cals 19, Protein 2, Fat 1g
iPhone: Carbs 1g, Cals 26, Protein 4g, Fat 1g
I have emailed the app makers but obviously do not expect to hear until probably the new year (if they reply)
I appreciate the app is only a guide but wondered what the groups thoughts were on this (surely the data should be the same even if the platforms are different).
Thanks and have a good Christmas.
