| PROS | CONS |
|---|---|
|
✔ Moderately comprehensive information about managing diabetes. |
✘ The app design is unfortunately an incorrect fit to the type of content, which is more suited to apps for magazines. This really lets the app down. |
Privacy and security
The app has a privacy policy which states that personally identifiable information such as name and email address, may be collected but held by the developers only. The policy cautions that the app does have links to external sites that are not operated by Diabetes New Zealand.
