DarioHealth Has Announced the First Blood Glucose Meter to Work With the iPhone 7

With the elimination of the headphone jack from the iPhone 7 a whole host of peripherals will need to be re-implemented to work off of the lightening connector. This includes medical technology. DarioHealth made the Dario that works with the iPhone 6’s headphone jack and now they have added a lightning connector version designed to work with the iPhone 7!

As my wife has Type 2 diabetes I know the importance of tracking her blood glucose. My wife has tried various meters over the years, including one from Bayer that would connect to your computer via USB. Usually she falls back to one of the cheap standbys that our insurance will assist in paying for. Keeping track of your blood glucose over time gives you insight to how your treatment is working and also helps you make good choices at dinner time. DarioHealth has now made it simple for you to keep track of your blood glucose levels.
