App Profile: Pet Diabetes Tracker

I used this app roughly 3 weeks ago for the first time and other than some of the wording being in a different language it worked great. Today I need to use it again for the blood glucose curve test tracking. When I went to enter the third set of results I realized all of the prior results for today’s testing were gone, nowhere to be found. Very disappointed! These test results are very important and they are just gone. Unreal!

This app seemed great. It wasn’t quite as extensive as the other canine diabetes tracking app, but much easier to use. It stayed at 3 stars because of that. I wish it had a separate injection site entry, as alternating the injection site is important and not having to go searching the notes for where I injected last would be nice. The other recording questions are very nicely laid out. However, it’s losing stars because it keeps crashing when I go to save information. Today I lost my body condition photos. Yesterday it crashed twice while inputting water and then food info on two different occasions. I think it’s crashing when it’s been open in the background and I then try to save info. Regardless, it’s extremely frustrating. If it saved automatically and/or just restarted when I reopened, that would be better than thinking I had the info I wanted input and the lose it. I don’t trust it to do my dog’s BG curve and that’s sad cause it’s a pretty nice recording. I’m thinking of just starting a spreadsheet rather than look for an app that meets all our needs.

I tried downloading the when my pet was diagnosed but everything came up in a different language and I couldn’t find a way to change it. This is no longer a problem and I find the app very useful. For future, maybe a way to note what device is used for blood glucose since some pet owners like me sometimes use Freestyle Libre which calibrates a bit higher than the AlphaTrak. It would be helpful to know looking back which device I used. Thanks for a great way to easily help my dog.
