It’s important to point out that already exists a glucometer, iBG-Star by Sanofi-Aventis, that connects directly to the Apple iPhone or iPod touch. Data are mapped according to the values ​​established by Scientific Diabetes Societies: depending on the BG levels, the audio track selected by the user, is distorted.

VIDEO SCENARIO/ It describes a typical day of a diabetic teenager using TrackUp, TuneUp’s menu.

From the top of the main screen, as you saw in the video scenario, the user can get into three sub-section: editor, suggest and save.

The suggest section offers help when editing the track, showing the user past changes on similar glycemic levels; save represents the saving option.
