About RVC Pet Diabetes App APK

Description
Pets with diabetes can be treated very well resulting in a good quality of life. The best results are achieved when you as a pet owner record all things that are important indicators of success or failure. The diabetes management can be fine-tuned on the basis of these, avoiding complications associated with low and high blood sugars, as well as the costs associated with such complications.This free app was designed by pet diabetes expert Dr Stijn Niessen of the Royal Veterinary College, University of London, UK. He designed the app for two main reasons:
1. To provide diabetic pet owners with a convenient free tool to actively participate in the medical management of their beloved pet;
2. To enable the gathering of strictly anonymous data on diabetic pets and their management. This enables diabetic pet owners to actively participate in research and help develop better treatment options for pets with diabetes.
The Diabetes Log feature of the app allows users to record, and easily share with their veterinarian, all those parameters that are essential to keep an eye on when it comes to pet diabetes management; they include: clinical signs like weight, appetite, thirst and urination changes, as well as urine and blood sugar values (for those owners who perform home blood or urine glucose testing).
The app also features the following:
• a medication reminder function
• a reminder to change the insulin injection sites (avoiding inflammation of areas too frequently used)
• a scientifically validated tool which calculates and monitors quality of life
• a scientifically validated tool to score your pet’s clinical signs
• a tool to calculate the number of calories your diabetic pet likely needs
• a tool to calculate the exact amount of food your diabetic pet likely needs
• plenty of space to enter and keep save useful information (e.g. contact details of your veterinarian, important medical history, questions for your veterinarian, etc.)
• visualisation of trends (using graphs), including changes in thirst, weight, fructosamine, average blood sugar values, urine ketones or sugar values, etc.
• links to useful pet diabetes videos
• an easy “export” function enabling the sharing of entered information and graphs with anyone interested, including your veterinarian.
So, take control of your pet’s diabetes and start logging entries into the Diabetes Log. This will maximise your chances to achieve the best possible result, together with your veterinarian. Life is complicated enough, let the Royal Veterinary College Pet Diabetes App be your personal assistant to take extra good care of your furry member of the family (and automatically help pet diabetes research along the way!).

Questions & Answers
Q: What is an APK File?
A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.
Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?
A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.
Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?
A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.
Q: What are Android App permissions?
A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.
Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.

User's Reivew
3 ★Time needs to be fixed. A blood glucose curve from 6pm-6am Australian timedoes not record in time order, and the graph is all out of whack, showingincorrect data
5 ★Great App. I thought it was ridiculous that you can't delete entries, butyou CAN, just swipe left! I found this out by reading old reviews.
4 ★Time needs fixing. I live in Australia and the times in the curve graph do not match real time. I entered bg value at 7.30am and the graph shows it as 8.30 pm the day before. Very confusing..
4 ★Best app to keep track of GBC. Would have gotten full marks if local timezone would be used in chart and deleting one food record wouldn't remove all..
2 ★Your settings for the date are screwy. The day is one day ahead of the actual date. You cannot go into a previous record and edit it and wind up with a number entries for the same day. This pretty sloppy software.
5 ★The developer team updated the app, as per comments from previous reviewers; you can change the date in the monitoring section of the diary; delete entries by left swipe. I am biased since I am the vet who designed it but my diabetic pet owners love it; they can communicate daily changes to the veterinary team, measure quality of life, send results to the vet; before my clients attend the practice I already have a detailed insight into what we should focus on, which steps would be indicated, if anything.
4 ★Everything works great except the dates...the app accepts the dates I enter but when it saves them, it backs the date up one day. We really need it to save the date we enter so please fix this soon and I'll update to 5 stars.
2 ★Limited or no edit capabilities for existing log entries. No way to backdate entries (to catch up or fill in missing logs). Some of us don't live with phones attached to us 24/7.
1 ★Cannot add past glucose curves as there is no way of changing date. Useless
5 ★What a great idea. Thank you RVC team.
5 ★Really user-friendly. Helps me keep track of my cat's clinical signs. Also love the medication reminders!
3 ★Just got it and will test it... Interesting that it needs permissions that are not consistent with what it is so I will block those out (microphone)
