How do I add events (medication, insulin, food, exercise and notes) in the Glooko® mobile app?

Lifestyle events, including medication, insulin, food and exercise, as well as custom notes, can be added to your Glooko mobile app so that they can be viewed alongside glucose data to reveal trends and patterns.

Events may be added from the Home screen, as well as from the Daily Log. 

• Adding events from the Home screen
• Adding events from the Daily Log

To add an event from the Home Screen

1. Tap Add (+) on the home screen
   
   
   
2. Select the type of event you would like to add: A1c, Blood Pressure, Exercise, Food, Insulin, Medication, Notes or Weight.
   
   
   
   
3. Tap the date/time field and adjust the date and time of the event, if necessary.
4. Search for and/or select (from your Recent, Frequent or Custom lists) the item(s) you would like to include in the event and add all relevant details. 
5. Tap Done and/or the plus (+) symbol to add the item(s).
   • To add multiple events (of different types) at the same time, toggle between the event types at the top of the Add Event menu and add items as needed.

All events can be viewed by tapping the Daily Log icon on the home screen of your Glooko mobile app. These are sorted by date alongside your glucose data.

TIP: When adding a Food event, you can search for the item, select from Recent or Frequent items, add a Custom item, add a quick Carbs entry, use voice capture or use the barcode scanner. As foods are added, total carbs will display at the bottom of the screen (expand for calories, fat and protein).
