OnTrack Diabetes for Android

I had the Blackberry Version of this app, then moved to an Android phone and redownloaded it. It is actually better under Android than under RIM. Yes, it takes some time to set up, but - it is easy to adjust on the fly if necessary. I highly recommend it!

Great app — probably the best of the free Android apps. Fast, exports, graphs at a glance. I'd love it to also add body temperature tracking (I'm prone to hypothermia) and for the food tracking to include calories, protein, and fat (and hopefully sodium)… but I wouldn't want to drag it down with more than the basic features

When I was first diagnosed with diabetes twenty years ago I created my own tracking system to track all aspects of all my health. Daily input takes about 5 minutes and I have a continuous record of all the data needed for all the years I have had diabetes. It is easy to set up your own tracking information on any spreadsheet and once you create it it is your own exactly the way that makes sense for you.

Was surprised at the first ad I received: A diabetic cook book with meals having 10g of carb or less. This seem rather useless as I would always have a low blood sugar after a meal having only 10g of carb. Who writes this stuff ? I have had diabetes for 51 years, have an A1C of 6.2 and no complications. Are there really diabetics out there who would not have a low blood sugar after a meal with only 10g of carb ?

I have to check this app out on a friends cell phone.
