See now the applications that we have separated for you:

Glic app

First, let's talk about Glic, which is an application to measure glucose.

It also works as a guidance app for people who wish to have access to necessary and routine diabetes care tips, such as help with medication schedules, daily diabetes care.

So we can say that the Glic application helps patients in their daily lives and prevents them from forgetting procedures they need to do on a daily basis.

It is available at Google Play and Apple Store.

Your Health Online App

In second we brought the glucose control, as the name suggests is an application to measure glucose and works together with a glucometer if the person has it.

So in this case, it is necessary to have a glucose measuring device, so that this measurement is more effective and also so that the user can use the application's features correctly.

In this way, the user will be able to use the application in a peaceful way to measure and monitor the level of sugar present in their blood.

Finally, we brought an application that was made to measure glucose and shows promising results in a test carried out.

We can say that the purpose of the application is to indirectly detect blood glucose levels, without the need for frequent needles and finger pricks.

This application emerged as a way to assess the heart rate of patients and is even being tested by researchers at the University of California, located in the United States.

We can say that the Freestyle Libre application works by checking the pulse, for this, the individual places his index finger over the flash light of the cell phone camera. In this way, it makes it possible to detect the heart rate through pulse waves.

In this way, the main purpose of the Freestyle Libre application is to be trained to be able to directly capture the different waves of blood glucose levels, so you can make a link between both metrics. 

So, in a future that is not so distant, it will be possible to cross data to inform patients about their blood glucose value, in a practical, painless way, using only the cell phone camera and with reduced costs.
