Hey Gary,

I am using Seeing Ai to read the insulin pod screen in the OmniPod app, as the tab is not being read by talkback. The tab will tell you how much insulin is left in the pod, as well as the expiration date of the pod. I suppose if I were on Android for all of my daily functions, I could take a screen shot and have Envision Ai or the Google Ai app read the text from the screen shot.

And as previously stated in the last email… granted with a bit more info.

Glooko: for seeing daily/weekly totals of insulin. This app will also allow my Dr to see my insulin totals for possible adjustments.
Dexcom Clarity: This will allow me and my Dr to see all of my BG readings and time in range.
Happy Bob: This app is more for shits and giggles. Happy Bob pulls all the data from the Dexcom system, but it does it with a little snark. This one is more to make me laugh. It does have a useful function for seeing my BG on the Lock Screen widget on my iPhone.

The application works great with Talkback. As I said before there are a few spots for improvement, but they are easy to deal with. I am also utilizing a few more applications to get the full picture of how my days, and weeks are going.
