Carrot Care: Bloodwork Tracker 17+

Why not jsut connect with apple health and get all the data for those who connected apple health to their health care provider. All the info is there.

Hello! Good feedback, we already integrate some parts of the blood data like glucose and looking to expand into more biomarkers.

The app can scan test results in pdf or image formats issued by any medical facility and captures data for specific biomarkers.

The scanning is done within the app but this can create mistakes while reading sometimes (guess the algorithms need better vetting). However, the user can send pdf files to the developers for scanning and that gives much better accuracy. The results from the latter can be downloaded and then deleted from their servers (according to given instructions).

I am half way through accumulating around 10 years of data on this app, and the overall picture it offers is quite useful. The records can be downloaded as a unified pdf or backed up to iCloud. Not sure where the backup file is put on iCloud though and if it can be accessed via the app from another device. The pdf currently lacks the graphs offered in the app but perhaps that is yet to come.

Overall, the app is stable and very promising. It would be great to have more instructions/details on using and importing or exporting, and hope the developers will continue the good work.

Thank you for the warm feedback! Excited to hear you enjoy having the full history in the app and it works great for you.

Regarding the PDF graphs, we wanted to make the PDF export lightweight so people can bring those to their doctors. Engineers are looking into whether we can make the graph in PDF happen.

We’re actively working on a new “Medical Files” feature so tests can be interlinked with original files. We’re also constantly improving our OCR/tests recognition service. Stay tuned!

I’m so glad to have found this app! Traditionally I had used Apple Health to track my lab work, but it’s far too restrictive around adding and amending data. If there’s a slight difference in spelling or terminology, the whole thing breaks down.

With carrot care, they give you so much control over your own lab data, and the ability to watch trends over time. The auto-scanning isn’t quite there yet, but their team was able to help get years of history imported for me over email. Excited to be able to use this as a tool with my doctors.

It's fantastic to hear that CC has been a positive addition to your health tracking experience! We're delighted that you appreciate the control and flexibility our app offers, especially in comparison to more restrictive options like Apple Health. It's our goal to provide a user-friendly platform where you can manage and analyze your lab data effectively.
