User Reviews

Overall, users value BlueStar for strong diabetes management features: easy tracking of glucose, meals, meds, and weight; helpful, encouraging feedback; and solid device integration (Dexcom, glucometers) that supports better health decisions. Many report it can promote real improvements in blood sugar and A1c when it works. However, consistency issues—crashes, unreliable Bluetooth syncing, and frequent sign-up/onboarding barriers—diminish reliability. Users also cite excessive permission prompts and incomplete nutrition data. Improvements in stability, openness to general public use, and smoother onboarding would broaden its appeal.
Pros
  • Helps manage diabetes by tracking glucose, meals, medications, and weight with actionable feedback.
  • Easy to use with encouraging messages after entries and open communication with healthcare professionals.
  • Strong data tracking over time for meals, carbs, and multiple restaurants, aiding meal planning.
  • Integrates with devices like Dexcom or a glucometer for quick data entry and syncing.
  • Has real health impact for some users, including improvements in A1c and weight with consistent use.
Cons
  • Frequent crashes and stability issues, including crashes on startup and after updates.
  • Unreliable Bluetooth/device syncing, requiring re-enabling Bluetooth or disconnecting/reconnecting devices.
  • Onboarding barriers: requires insurer or employer codes and is not readily available to the general public.
  • Excessive permission prompts and privacy concerns, including repeated location/notification requests.
  • Incomplete nutrition data and serving-size information for many foods.

It’s harassment for you to ask me 30 times for permission for more access and more notifications every time I want to record a reading. Surely there’s a way you can record my preferences and not ask multiple times every single time I open the app. It makes me hate using it, so I record fewer records. I’m asking my doctor for a different option at our next meeting. Ugh.

I finally realized I should send a report to myself on a weekly basis, not just to my doctor before a checkup. This way I can download all my records to my computer. There is one problem or bug. Periodically a survey pops up asking if I am taking a certain prescription. The problem is that I will be asked about the lower doses I am no longer taking before being asked about the higher dosage I take now. The lower doses were removed from the medication list when my dosage was increased.

Many foods say “one serving. Some have the option of a half or a quarter. For most foods you need to have the label of the package to determine what a serving size is. This is very inconvenient, if you’re not near the food package or already disposed of it. Could you break it down more: Small Ex: an item says 1 srvg. The label says 1 srvg= 1 tblsp. If you only had 2 tsp, there is no choice except 1/4, 1/2, 3/4 etc. -none of which equal 2 tsp.
