meaningful health coaching. It can
even spot changes in your daily
patterns and coach you on how to
address them.
Syncing and Tracking
BlueStar connects with 400+ smart devices, including fitness trackers and blood glucose meters, to help track your vitals. It can also track your medications, food, weight, activity, blood pressure, and sleep.
Connecting the Data
Wondering how your sleeping habits or physical activity affects your blood glucose? BlueStar shows you daily and weekly trends to help you self-manage your condition and easily share with your doctor and care team.
