Health Diary by MedM 4+

Great App but one glaring deficiency

I really like this app and love that it connects via Bluetooth. The data I do enter manually is easy to do as well. I really like that you can choose what you see on your dashboard as well. The one glaring deficiency is the ability to change the order of items displayed on the dashboard. It’s rather irritating that I can’t put things I use daily at the top rather than having to scroll down. It really makes me want to not track things like blood pressure which I only update a couple times a year but wouldn’t mind having the info because it pushes weight which I enter daily way down.

Best app to record and store your health data!

I wanted to take the time to express how thoroughly pleased I am with the MedM Health Diary app!
I am 65 years old with type 2 diabetes and occasional high blood pressure. I was in search of a health app that would allow me to keep record of both, as well as my weight and daily steps - and that would sync with Apple Health and my meter. I decided to download several apps and to try them all for a week - deleting them as I went along when they didn’t do what I wanted them to do! MedM was the clear winner after only two days! The app syncs to my meter and is so user friendly when I need to input other data manually. And all of my Apple Health data has a place in the app too!
I am so happy with this app and recommend it to everyone who likes to have all of their health data in one spot - that is easy to use and has a great customizable dashboard that shows the health info you want to see at a glance when you open the app.
This app helps me keep track of all my health info in one great place!

No longer works with my hardware

I bought a blood pressure monitor and it said to use this app. It mostly worked but the sync took forever to their servers, so the app was terribly written, and I disabled most of it except for the BP. But after the latest iOS updates, the app shows the splash screen for several seconds and then quits, it won’t fully open. Now I’m stuck with a BP monitor I can’t sync to my Apple Health history. On top of that I’m seeing other reviews saying they’ve done a bait and switch and won’t even sync data to Apple Health without paying; this was free and is the reason I bought the monitor, for Apple Health compatibility.

The app is written so poorly, if it ever works again I would never consider paying for it; I feel like the developer should maybe pay me for the time I spent keeping my phone awake to sync the first few times. And it sounds like I may be stuck with buying another blood pressure monitor that has an app that still works and is included, especially if it never works again.

Really unusual to have an app be this actually terrible and then to quit working entirely, especially with a paid hardware device I’m stuck with.

We appreciate your feedback and understand your concern. MedM is an independent software developer, not sponsored by the makers of health monitoring devices. For almost a decade we have developed and maintained our apps for free. However, continued investments are needed to keep user data protected, support more hardware, add new measurement types and features, improve user experience, stay ahead of the operating platform updates, and offer support. To maintain the user-centric approach and to stay an independent software developer, we must rely on the financial support of our users.
