Shows Your Trends At a Glance
You can enter your goals in the app and receive personalized trends in data that lets you know your progress in meeting those goals. The app will also ask if you want to widen your goal if you are consistently hitting outside the range, and will recommend you tighten your goal once you're consistently within your target.
Asks Motivating Questions
Personal diabetes management coach, Mina, will ask hard-hitting questions that will help you create positive patterns, and lead to better management.

Your results and data are populated instantly so you can see your results at the touch of a button. Plus, you can earn rewards for being active.
Shares Accurate Info With Healthcare Providers
Those with diabetes have to track and monitor their health at all times and share this information with their healthcare provider.
