User Reviews

Users overall value Glucose Buddy+ for comprehensive diabetes logging (glucose, carbs, meds, weight, BP, activity) and useful premium features, with positive notes on Dexcom G6 and nutrition data. However, recurring themes across reviews include stability issues after updates (crashes, freezes), removal or downgrading of key features (notably Insights) in favor of paid options, persistent subscription billing problems, and uneven customer support. Interoperability gaps (Apple Health, Fitbit), data delays from connected devices, and incomplete nutrition data also recur. These tensions reflect a product with strong utility but problematic updates and billing practices that alienate long-time users.
Pros
  • Comprehensive diabetes tracking across glucose, carbs, meds, weight, blood pressure, and activity with long-term usefulness.
  • Premium features add value for many users (A1C monitoring, more integrations) and some report worth the cost.
  • Strong food/nutrition data with carb counting via barcode scanning and up-to-date grocery/restaurant info.
  • Clear visuals and dashboards for glucose levels (circles indicating levels) and useful insights.
  • Solid device/platform integrations (Dexcom G6 and Apple Health) and ability to connect external data sources.
Cons
  • Stability issues and crashes after updates (weight entry crashes, barcode scanner crashes, freezes).
  • Updates often remove or degrade features (notably Insights) and push users toward paid subscriptions.
  • Persistent subscription billing problems (auto-renewals, charges after cancellation, hard to cancel).
  • Account access and support problems (sign-in failures, slow or missing tech support).
  • Interoperability and data gaps (Apple Health and Fitbit sync issues, Dexcom delays, incomplete food carb data).

I started with this app before I started with a CGM for my Diabetes, it really helped me keep track of my sugars. I frequently recommend this app to my ER, and Urgent Care patients while I was still in clinical practice when they learned they were diabetic and needed to track their blood sugars ( I have been retired for 2 years now )

It recently stopped working. It starts and when I try to add a weight entry the app crashes.

Since you updated glucose buddy two days ago, whenever I attempt to add a weight log it won’t allow me to put a different weight in. When I try to do so it cancels the app out and immediately returns to Home Screen as if I was never in the app.
