Hi, I wonder how Drafts might work for something like this. You can
configure it to add a line of text to an existing file. Of course I'm
not sure how it can be manipulated to add numbers or track statistics or
anything, but worth a look in case Drafts might help with this.

Hi,
I agree that a spreadsheet is the best way to go for us blindies. However when
I changed from Windows mobile where I could enter my readings in the
spreadsheet on the fly, to the iPhone, I had no way to do this. So I gave up on
the spreadsheet.
If you can be bothered logging results in notes, then adding them to a
spreadsheet, then stick to that. If your lazy like me and only want to enter
them once, try Glucose Buddy.
If you sync to the glucose buddy site, you can see your results in a table, so
its still quite easy to see trends For Example, post breakfast readings being
too high. If you log your records long enough, you can also see the average A1C
on the site.
This has inspired me to take another look at numbers, since I hear its
accessibility has improved.
Cheers,
Brett.

I say that because I have tried probably two dozen blood sugar tracking apps
and found them all to be lacking in some way or other. Mostly, it seems
following results for comparison and trends.
Really, the best solution I have found so far is to create a sheet in Excel
on my PC. I know virtually nothing about Excel, so you might imagine how
simple it is. But, I am able to follow columns to spot trends. I am
fortunate to have a copy of MicroSoft Office, but there must be other
spreadsheet programs for the PC or Mac. I have not yet tried using my sheet
with Numbers on my phone/pad, so what I am doing in the meantime is simply
noting results in Notes until I am able to enter them into the worksheet.
It really seems most apps for this purpose want to be to pretty or too
techie. I really wish there was something as simple as the paper logs that
come with strips and meters or as straightforward as the spreadsheet I
created. I am still open to others' findings.
