I did not know this was released, but I was told it was coming soon, so thanks 
for the heads up. I was told you can actually go into an Apple store and see 
one right now, but I have not been able to make it there so far. Also, thank 
you for the suggested data base app.

Do let us know what you find out.

Hi viphone list,
 
A company called Sanofi has released the IBGStar meter, which connects to the 
iPhone. There is also an app that records the blood sugar readings from the 
meter. Has anyone experimented with the app or tried the meter? I am wondering 
if Voiceover would announce the prompts given by the meter. Someone from 
another list said that the app is almost accessible. Labels are above the 
buttons, so one isn't always sure what button applies to what label. Double 
tapping didn't do anything.
I plan to take a look at the app myself since it can be used for logging blood 
sugars, insulin, etc. Maybe if enough people try the app and write to the 
company about accessibility, it will be even more useful.
There has been some discussion on the list about diabetes record keeping apps. 
I didn't like any of the ones I tried, so I used an app called Tap Forms Lt 
which allows one to create databases. The app is totally accessible and allows 
one to create and customize a form as well as to use built in forms. Having a 
meter that would communicate with an accessible app would save some of the work 
in keeping track of things.
