We submitted a new version of Gluroo (1.9.42) to the App and Play stores and it will be rolling out over the next week. This is an important milestone release as it switches to a new underlying framework: that change both represents an opportunity to eliminate a large class of hard-to-reproduce bugs and improve performance, but also can change behavior across the entire application. We’ve been running this version of Gluroo within our team for the last 6+ weeks and we generally feel good about its stability and performance, but there may be some new issues that arise, so please be ready to write in to help@gluroo.com or post on the FB user community if you notice something that seems off. There are some other highlights:
- Siri (iOS) now works with “Hey siri, what’s my blood sugar in Gluroo”, “Get Blood Sugar in Gluroo”, and other things like that (without needing to set up a Shortcut, though you can still use a Shortcut if you want to shorten what you have to say to just “what’s my sugar?”, for example).
- You can manually track your body weight using the “+” Menu > Vitals, or by importing from Apple HealthKit (or Google Health Connect, but that isn’t new for GHC)
- On iOS, if you’re in multiple GluCrews and using the Contact integration for showing Blood Sugar on an Apple Watch, we now correctly support multiple contact images so that you can see as many Blood Sugar Numbers on a single watch face as your Watchface allows contacts to be displayed. REMEMBER to leave NOTIFICATIONS enabled if you want your Apple Watchface to update with every reading while Gluroo is in the background.
- Much more reliable AI-analysis of text descriptions of meals… just be sure to always #mealname the entry for AI to kick in.
- Charts are more likely open to “now” instead of their prior time.
- Photo-based image analysis has improved a bit on our benchmarks
- Text/dictation-based image analysis when you provide a #mealname no longer asks a clarifying question and just does the best that it can off of the text provided.
- Non-English languages scale down the text in the UI to allow the generally-longer strings to fit a bit better. Switch to large text (Menu > Settings > Display > Text Size) if that makes it too small for you (knowing that that will make the UI not fit quite as well in many cases).
- Fixed a bug that caused Dexcom G7 CGM soaking behavior to not show for some users.
- Various bugs fixed related to sleep time and menstrual tracking.
- Fixed photo-previews looking blurry and not quite matching final photo for some users on iOS.
