BG Monitor has unique features that help you manage your diabetes. The application allows diabetics to record their blood glucose, carbohydrates, insulin dosages, as well as add notes and pictures. BG Monitor then uses the data to help diabetics identify trends in their blood glucose levels so they can make changes to their diet or insulin dosages.

• Record blood glucose levels, carbohydrates, insulin dosages, exercise, notes and pictures.
• View and edit entries quickly with the intuitive Holo-themed user interface.
• Take pictures of meals so you can go back and see what you ate and how much you ate.
• Detailed graphs and statistics provide insight on your blood glucose levels.
• Filter entries and statistics by date, type, and meal category.
• Insulin calculator - calculates insulin dosages for insulin pump and MDI users.
• Set “insulin : blood glucose” and “insulin : carbs” ratios depending on the time of day.
• Warns you when giving a bolus and insulin is on board.
• Record the insulin type for each entry.
• Export data as a spreadsheet file (.csv format). Email spreadsheet to doctors and family.
• Backup and restore data on different devices.
• Supports mg/dL (U.S.) and mmol/L (international) blood glucose units.

NOTE: Pictures are currently saved on your device’s internal storage. You can free memory by deleting your old pictures from “Settings” > “Tools”.

NOTE: Development was focused on smartphones so the app is not optimized for tablets.

    Ive used them all. I've even written one for my palm handspring years ago. This is by far the best one of the lot. Used with Calorie Counter to figure net carbs, it provides a complete solution. Developer is first rate and responsive. I'm certain it will

    Just downloaded it, I like it for free, have been living with DM for too long, glad that you have taken the app design from a DM perspective, & bonus on credibility, too. Isn't there a way for me to enter HbA1c? Great app so far, will see if I get the don

    I think I have downloaded just about all of them. This is simple and straight forward. Entry is quick and easy. I like this so much, I downloaded the 'donate' version to support the developer. Great job!
