The app
What's new
What each version of the T1DAL app lets you do, in plain words. Newest first. Nothing here is about code; it is about your day.
1.1
Write down what you ate.
The log sheet now has a spot for the dish and its carbs. Leave it blank and logging is the same one tap it always was. Name a dish once and T1DAL remembers the number for next time.
mmol/L.
If you read your glucose in mmol/L, the app does too now. It picks up whatever your Health app uses, and there's a switch in Profile if you'd rather set it yourself.
Look up an apple.
Barcodes only help with packaged food, so there's now a small library of everyday things: fruit, cooked grains, beans, dairy, eggs, bread. Pick the portion that matches the plate and it fills in the carbs.
Meals from other apps.
If something else already logs your food to Apple Health, those carb entries can become T1DAL meals. One tap each, nothing sent anywhere.
The weekly read and the appointment brief work now.
They never did. The model on your phone was failing silently and the app said the wrong thing about why. Both write real prose now, still on the phone, still never leaving it.
A note about your own log, at most once a week.
Off unless you turn it on. Observations about what's already in your log, never advice, and quiet when there's nothing solid to say.
The lock screen widget takes you to the log sheet.
Tap it and you're straight on the sheet, ready to log.
Guides open in place.
The guide cards in Support now open the full article without kicking you out to Safari.
Every remembered dish, yours to browse.
What you have corrected lists every dish the app remembers, with search, three sort orders, and a word saying where each number came from: typed, barcode, chain menu, food library, imported, photo. Change a number or forget a dish behind a menu and a confirmation, never by accident.
Chain menus and barcodes finish the job.
A chain lookup can save straight to the log, a barcode scan can pick its meal slot and time on the spot, and the recent chips rank by what you actually log.
Today rests clean.
Nothing destructive shows until you tap Edit, and every removal anywhere in the app now confirms with the system's own dialog, which warns when a photo goes too. Sections of Today can be hidden, times sit in a fixed column, and the log sheet speaks in the right tense everywhere.
One door to help.
The Support tab leads with the crisis line: free, confidential, around the clock. The same door now carries device support and help with insulin costs, and all of it works offline.
For the ten-year veterans.
A guide card in Support for the people who have been at this a long time: one guide names burnout's real shape, the other catches you up on the Mobi and G7 in real life.
Accessibility sizes, treated as first class.
A long list of layout fixes at the largest text sizes, and one promise kept everywhere: the crisis message is always fully visible, without scrolling, at any size.
1.0
The first release: glucose from Apple Health, one-tap meal and session logging, barcode scanning, chain menus that work offline, Today, seasons, widgets, and the Support tab with the crisis line first. Everything on the phone, nothing uploaded.
