As an example, Glooko makes a mobile version of a glucose logbook that reads data straight from a sampling device - useful, but not earthshaking. But to go from that data to automatic reminders and advice about managing glucose levels - what raganwald wishes existed - would require a much more stringent level of approval from the FDA.

I used to work next to the guys from mySugr. They went through the process of having their app certified as a medical device by the European Commission, (the CE or Conformité Européenne mark). Not easy, but doable. I'm not sure whether it gives explicit recommendations, but it let's you identify patterns based on what you're eating and the activities you're doing.

Hi glennos! Nice to meet you here!

We are now getting FDA approval too. Good fun.

Regulations are a bastard, but there for good reasons. Imagine getting a med which wasn't tested and which is made in someones bathtub… Exaggerated but you get what I mean?
