After you have started the app you will see this profile wizard, which will help you to make the main settings.
There you can select the language of the app, then you can select, if you want to enter your BG readings in mg/dl or mmol/l and the unit of your weight. Very important: You can choose, if you want to use an exchange unit for your carbohydrates, like BE or KE. If you don’t select an exchange unit, your carb intake will be stored in gram! | |
| In this case the bolus calculator works according to the American formula:
Bolus = Carbohydrates divided by carb/insulin ratio. If you activate the exchange unit, the bolus calculator works according to the European formula:Bolus = BE multiplied with BE-Factor The blind mode is recommended, if you want to use the app with Apple's built-in screen reader, VoiceOver '. Is this mode is activated no graphical elements will be displayed in the statistics. | ||
 |
In 'More' you can adjust the settings for the app or get the information which version of the app you are currently using. You can also rate the app in iTunes. Please consider: If you want to complain about something, please contact us prior to the review. Usually we’re able to elucidate misunderstandings or help with problems you may have. | |
 |
In the profile settings you can adjust which unit you prefer for measurements (weight, blood glucose,
carbohydrates) and which is your target range for blood glucose. If you want to track your carbohydrates in 'gram' then let the exchange unit deactivated. Otherwise activate and name it (as 'BE' or other name) and set a ratio (here it is for example '12', which means that 1 BE = 12 gram carbohydrates). You can adjust the target range for your blood glucose with min. and max. value. This range will be shown in the logbook as green fields. (The display in this example shows the value in mg/dl, but of course you can also use mmol/l) | |
 |
For more settings like language, time/date format or numbers of columns in the logbook, please tap on 'Settings' in the section 'Setup'.
The ‘Programsettings’ section is divided in 'Main logbook data' (like BG, carbs, bolus and so on) and 'Data types'. You can adjust here which lines you want to use in the logbook. Data types must be synchronized from 'SiDiary Online' first before you can adjust them. The app supports all data types which you can also use with the PC version of SiDiary or 'SiDiary Online'. So you are free to track everything you can imagine. | |
In ‘Keyboard’ you can adjust, if you want to use our optimized keyboard layout for the app or the iOS standard layout. The ‘Blind mode’ prepares the app to use with the screen reader ‘VoiceOver’. In this case the statistics uses no graphical elements only the tabular detail statistics. Under ‘Color-Text’ you can change the text color of the app (the default color is blue) according to your wishes. | ||
 |
In the item ‘Synchronization’ please enter (optional) your username and password that you have chosen for the login in SiDiary Online. After that you can
always sync your data from the app with SiDiary Online in the Sync tab. You can also automate the synchronization. Either once a day to an arbitrary time (when you are at home and can use your Wi-Fi) or every time you exit the app. This also works, when you put the app in the background only mode! | |
 |
The email-notification can be used, so that the app automatically sends an email to a person of your
trust, if a blood glucose reading exceeds the limit of the Min./Max. range that you have specified. The settings you make here, can be protected with a freely selectable PIN code. Changes then can only be made after you have entered the correct PIN. | |
 |
Of course we would be grateful if you would also share your experiences of our app with other users. The easiest way to do so is with the option ‘Rating
SiDiary’. It allows you in a very easy way to post your opinion on iTunes.
