I got this yesterday and started hating it within the first hour!! This app is developed by an European company, and the default language is German......I think. But that was okay because I thought turning the language selection to English would be a breeze. I thought WRONG! Since the entire app is in a different language, I kept touching the wrong buttons and wasn't able to find out the right setup buttons! I checked out SiDiary's website's troubleshooting area, but didn't help much; there is no step by step instruction or any pictured guide. After playing w/ it for 30 mins or so, I was somehow able to do it, but only partial texts got turned into English, not everything!!!!!! After opening and closing the app about 8/9 times within 15/20 mins, it automatically fixed this issue and everything was in English. I thought I was all set to go now. But I was so wrong!
When you open this app, there is a "+" sign on the first page. Once you touch that +, it takes you to another page where you can enter your data like time, blood glucose, blood pressure, weight, event, carb count, etc. I touched "Time," which is the very first field. It allowed me to enter the date and time nicely.......no problem. Then I touched the 2nd field, Blood Glucose, and the app just closed on me! I tried again.........and again..........and again. Same thing happens everytime. Instead of letting me enter a number, the app closes. I tried with other fields like weight, BP, etc................but in vain! Bottom line is: the app let me only enter in the "Time" field and nothing else. When I tried to enter value in any other field, it got closed down. A Diabetes Management app that doesn't let you enter your data!!!! What a sucker!!!!!!!!!!!! And I spent $5 for it!
I have used apps like this before and I really like the one from "Diabetes Pilot." Only reason I wanted to switch is SiDiary offeres an online logbook and Diabetes Pilot only allows PC/Mac downloadable version. And sometimes it's convenient to have your data online if you don't have your laptop w/ you! But I am going back to Diabete Pilot and WILL NEVER BUY from SiDiary again. I am just shocked to see their quality control; anyone doing a few simple tests would have been able to catch those basic issues!
