No, the Sense cannot measure blood glucose, but the app now has a place to manually log glucose levels.

Before posting, re-read to see if it would make sense to someone else not looking at your Fitbit or phone.

Where in the Fitbit app can you manually log blood glucose?

 

FYI, there is a feature request here to request they add the ability to manually log/capture blood pressure, blood glucose and other biometric indicators:

https://community.fitbit.com/t5/Feature-Suggestions/Section-to-log-blood-pressure-amp-Glucose-on-Das...

 

I wish they had the ability in the app or web to at least manually log/enter the following biometric values that play a crucial role in hearth health / prevention/mgmt of diabetes:

  1. Blood Pressure
  2. Blood Glucose
  3. A1c
  4. Total Cholesterol
  5. HDL
  6. LDL
  7. Triglycerides

@bobby2478 it's being rolled out. For example I don't have it but my wife does.

I see this now, but it's in a different spot.  I had to go to the Discover tab at the bottom, then Health and Fitness Stats, and in there I see a tile for Blood Glucose. I was accustomed to clicking "Edit" at the top of the dashboard and seeing stats to add at the bottom.

I'm having trouble finding where this is and how to use it. Could you point it out to me please?

@garden4fun2 in the Fitbit mobile app click on "Discover" at the bottom bar, then scroll to the bottom and select "Health & Fitness Stats", here you will see a tile for Blood Glucose. I don't believe there is an option to do this from the Sense itself (at least I don't know where this is). This is the Android mobile app, not sure about iOS and if they have a different UI.

I am in Canada using iPhone, and do not have Blood Glucose tile.

 

Definitely would love to have ability to log Blood Pressure too

been looking for this for days.  Somehow I had set a reminder, and I could enter it.  But then I couldn't find how to get back to the screen!   I would have to wait until the next reminder!  no idea, but you saved me tons of continued research, so thanks!!!

Try using Google Sheets, with a script you can enter the date and time automatically, when you enter the data.

 

You can have multiple tabs or enter all on the shame sheet.

 

PS. The macro has to be setup on a PC.

 

EG.

- format column A as date in the format you want

- format column B as time in the format you want

- format column C as the value you are logging

 

When you enter a value in column C on a new row it will insert date and time in columns A and B

 

This is the script to add to your sheet - you must grant it access to allow it to run


/** @OnlyCurrentDoc */

function onEdit() {
var s = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSheet();
if ( s.getName() == "Values" ) { //checks that we're on Score or Values or not
var r = s.getActiveCell();
if( r.getColumn() == 3) { //checks that the cell being edited is in column A
var nextCell = r.offset(0, -1);
if( nextCell.getValue() === '' ) //checks if the adjacent cell is empty or not?
nextCell.setValue(new Date());
var nextCell = r.offset(0, -2);
if( nextCell.getValue() === '' ) //checks if the adjacent cell is empty or not?
nextCell.setValue(new Date());
}
}
}

This is the exact way to add blood sugar tile to the main screen for recording. Now this app is useful as it allows us to record our activity, food, weight, and blood sugar all in one place!

Can't find it.  I go to explore>health & fitness stats but there is no tile for glucose tracking.  My iOS app claims to be current.

 

Best Answer

I don't have the tile on my app either (Android in the US).  I am getting the reminders to log in my blood glucose levels, but haven't found a way to view them.

I hit the Discover tab, but there is no "health and fitness" anywhere to be seen.

For me, there is no "Heath and Fitness Stats" anywhere. I searched all over after I went to the Discover tab. I guess the next time the app wants me to add this ability, I better click to do it rather than closing it. Sigh. Fitbit strikes again.

I'd like to see blood sugar options increased to "after exercise" and perhaps somehow correlated to stress levels/level of activity/food intake
