I was hoping to be able to use this to help my daughter in learning how to count carbs for her diabetes . The food selection is not great. Once that gets beefed up this app will be great.

This would be so much better for my T1D 5 yr old if she could see Lenny portrayed in this app wearing his pump. Otherwise, nice basic app.

It needs a search facility or a bigger food selection but other than that it is totally great I love the games

Its all right I'm 12 and have diabetes but don't have a pump i still think this is very useful i been to camp they never used Lenny they just gave us some cards at the end of camp but the cards wasn't enough to carb count i think they need to come up with more foods to even carb count ten little cards does not help you carb count don't you agree??? Needs to be better for teens and little kids kids cant carb count just from cards it has to take time...

MUCH room for improvement other than the 30 minutes invested in the food carb section

X70%
by X####:

This app's data base is way to small to be useful. I also found an inaccuracy. 1 cup of rice has around 80 grams of carbs, not 45!

D70%
by D####:

Doesn't have so many foods like carrots of all things. no way to go back from next page without closing app. Just pure crap.

G70%
by G####:

I want the MyMedtronic app that you can get for Apple devices. This is a good app for kids to help learn to count carbs.

X70%
by X####:

This has maybe 1/1000th the info needed to track carbs in the food we're eating...

X70%
by X####:

Not a good tool for really tracking carbs.

Very cool

T70%
by T####:

It's a good start to help kids and parents learn some of the basic foods and their carbs. It would be nice if there was a bigger food selection and it included dietary sugars and fiber. The game is a nice touch and we'll use it to help our three year-old learn the cardlbs in his foods. Thank you and we look forward to seeing this improve.

It's good for 1st timers

It is boring.

The most user friendly app for carb counting i've seen so far. It would be great if included a much larger food database. Keep up the good work.

It helps my child

M70%
by M####:

Great app for kids and even adults who don't understand the concept of what has how many carbs. Some carb amounts are off such as cottage cheese having 0 carbs (albeit very low carb). I couldn't expect the app to have the carbs of every different type of bread for instance wheat vs white and subtract the fiber. Overall good to get the general carb counting idea out there.

Hi Robert, glad your son is enjoying the games and thanks for your feedback. Due to FDA rules, I'm not allowed to talk about future products. But I can tell you that we hear you and are working toward the development of products that make it easier and more convenient for people with diabetes and their loved ones to access diabetes health information anytime, anywhere. So, please stay tuned!
