Medication tracking in 2.8.0

If you already use Glu Sight for glucose and insulin, you have been doing half the job of remembering your day. 2.8.0 is for the rest: pills and other medications now live in the same log, so you are not juggling the app and a separate list in your head.

Set up meds using a pattern you already trust

You add medication therapies with the details you would actually tell a clinician: form, strength, and how you take them. The flow mirrors insulin therapies on purpose, so the first step feels familiar instead of new. Archive what you no longer use and the list stays short, which makes keeping it current feel lighter.

Log what happened, not only what was planned

Medication intake logging stays quick to open and easy to confirm. Mark a dose taken or skipped so your record matches reality. That small choice matters later: when you scroll back, you are not guessing whether you really took it.

The right nudge at the right time (Plus)

With Glu Sight Plus, you can turn on per-therapy reminders so a notification shows up when a dose is due. You still choose the schedule; the app supplies the prompt so remembering does not depend on you catching the clock. Insulin reminders and Live Activities work the same as before.

A little progress you can see without opening the diary

Home adds a daily medication adherence view so you get a sense of how the day is going in one glance. If you like knowing why the ring looks the way it does, a short help sheet explains the math. Visible progress tends to help people finish what they started; we kept it calm, not gamified.

One timeline for the whole day

Medication intakes sit in the diary next to glucose and insulin, in order, with filters and rows updated so you read a day the way you lived it. Trends and statistics pull from the same data, so charts and summaries do not tell a different story than the log.

Onboarding asks first, then stays out of your way

Guided onboarding now checks whether you want to track medications. If you say no, you are not nudged through empty screens. If you say yes, the app commits to that path, the same spirit as optional insulin tracking: your routine, not a default we chose for you. And just like insulin tracking, you can turn medication tracking on or off anytime from the Profile tab, so your choice on day one is not permanent.

Why this release matters

The gap most apps leave is not glucose. It is everything else you take to stay well. 2.8.0 closes that gap in one place: one story per day, fewer tools to reconcile, and less low-grade stress about whether you forgot something that never made it into Glu Sight.

That is the point of the update.

Smoother logging and clearer charts in 2.7.6

Glu Sight has changed quite a bit since 2.7.0. Not with one giant headline feature, but with the kind of updates you feel when you’re in a hurry: logging from a reminder, typing a decimal your way, or connecting HealthKit for the first time.

Think of this as a polish release: less guessing, less re-typing, and screens that behave the way your region and your day expect.

When a reminder fires, logging should feel obvious

Live Activities already made insulin reminders hard to miss. Now the next step is smoother: open the app from a reminder and the insulin logging flow can arrive prefilled with what that reminder was about. Less hunting, less duplication, faster back to your actual life.

The Live Activity itself is also easier to read at a glance: clearer layout for upcoming and overdue states, and a bit more care on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island. The job here is simple: see the reminder, trust what it says, log the dose.

Numbers should match how you type and scroll

If your locale doesn’t use a period as the decimal separator, glucose and insulin entry now follow your keyboard, not a foreign default. In the diary, totals and labels read in a consistent local style, so the story of your day matches how you expect numbers to look. Small detail, big difference when you log often.

Home and stats that feel calmer to use

The home glucose chart got a full tune-up: steadier axes, mmol/L labels that read sensibly, and a nicer feel when you move around the chart. Glucose and insulin summary cards on Home now line up visually, so headline metrics are easier to compare without your eyes adjusting card to card.

We also smoothed how fresh HealthKit data lands in Diary, Home, and Statistics. The aim is fewer “why did the screen just lurch?” moments when new readings arrive.

Recaps that match what you remember

Daily recaps now line up more reliably with what you logged, especially around insulin. The point is narrative trust: when Glu Sight summarizes your day, it should feel like your day, not an approximation that makes you doubt the app.

First run and HealthKit with less silence

Onboarding is gentler: clearer welcome and “you’re set” copy, more consistent buttons on permission screens, and spacing that fits real phones instead of crowding the important lines.

When HealthKit first connects, you’ll see live sync status instead of staring at the screen wondering if anything is happening. For anyone anxious about sharing health data, feedback beats a blank wait.

Trends and exports, a little easier to trust

If you use Trends or export statistics, previews and sheets got small layout and clarity passes. The job is the same as everywhere else in this update: know what you’re looking at before you share or save it.

Why this release is worth a post

Most of these changes won’t show up in a single screenshot. They show up in daily behavior: fewer taps from reminder to dose, fewer number-format surprises, charts and cards that read cleanly, and onboarding that doesn’t leave you guessing.

That’s the work we want Glu Sight to keep doing between the big releases: make the everyday path feel lighter, so logging stays easy and the data stays believable.

Live Activities for Insulin Reminders

Glu Sight 2.7.0 brings Live Activities to insulin reminders. When a reminder fires, it shows up on your Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island and stays there until you log.

No unlocking, no navigating. Just tap and log.

Your reminder lives on the Lock Screen

When an insulin dose is due, a Live Activity starts automatically. You see the therapy name, the due time, and a countdown right on your Lock Screen or in the Dynamic Island.

Once the reminder is overdue, the display shifts to make that clear. The timing is still visible, and the tap-to-log shortcut stays active.

When you log the dose, the activity dismisses itself. Done.

Tap to log without unlocking

The Live Activity isn't just a notification. Tapping it opens the insulin logging sheet directly, so you can record the dose in one step.

That matters when your hands are full or when you just want to get it done and move on.

Insulin settings, cleaned up

This release also made insulin therapy setup easier to find. You can now manage your therapies from Settings or directly inside the insulin logging screen, whichever fits where you are in the app.

Glucose range settings got their own dedicated screen, keeping insulin and range configuration clearly separate.

Notification setup, more reliable

Reminder notifications now turn on when you're ready. Glu Sight handles the permission setup more reliably, so you're less likely to hit a snag the first time you enable them.

If Live Activities aren't available on your device, the app explains why and what's required.

Why this release matters

Insulin reminders are only useful if they're hard to miss and easy to act on. Glu Sight now makes sure that when a reminder fires, you can see it clearly and log it immediately, no matter what you're doing.

That's what Live Activities make possible.

Localization and Purchase Polish

This release focused on the details that make the app feel finished.

What's new

• The app now works better in Japanese and other languages, including release notes.
• CSV export fits your language more cleanly if you use the app in another language.
• Subscribing and restoring your subscription work more smoothly.
• Small fixes for trends, diary, and calendar make everyday use a bit smoother.

Why it matters

You may not notice each change by name, but together they make Glu Sight feel more polished, more consistent, and easier to use in your language.

Smoother Onboarding and Health Sync

February brought smoother setup and more reliable Apple Health sync for the diabetes app.

What's new

• Onboarding and Apple Health sync now run more smoothly, so you spend less time on setup and more time tracking glucose.
• The app handles Apple Health connection more reliably during setup and when you change permissions.
• Diary, calendar filtering, and the previous-day recap work more consistently.
• Loading and empty screens were updated so you always know what the app is doing while your data loads.

Why it matters

The best onboarding disappears into the background. These updates make Glu Sight feel steadier and easier to trust from the first launch.
