Is there a time stamp in the Gold version?

I need to have times on my food and glucose and was curious if I upgrade to Gold if that is included? I don't want to pay if that feature isn't available as it is important for diabetics.

Hi @jayallen

There is not a time stamp per se, but you can set up your diary to make it clear when you took your blood glucose measurements.

I ask clients to arrange their diary into breakfast, AM snack, lunch, PM snack, supper, and bedtime snack. Pre-meal glucose measures are recorded ahead of any food being entered, and post-meal glucose measures are entered after the food has been recorded.

Additionally, you can use the "Add Note" feature if you want to record a specific note about your blood glucose readings, such as time.

Kind regards,

Yes, there are those options, but a timestamp on all entries would still be good!

That is one thing I like about S Health. The time is there when you input and you can change it too. I wish the cronometer reports could be downloaded all at one time in one report. Downloading 4 and then copying and pasting and resorting is a pain.

@onseca and @jayallen

The team at Cronometer would love to hear this feedback to help them to continue delivering the very best dietary tracking program.

It would be awesome if you could add these requests to the "Feature Request" forum.

Enjoy your day!

I'm not seeing where I can time stamp in my diary.

@Eric When you add your biometric, also add a note with the time.

Or, if you are taking a measurement at the same time everyday (to see trends over time) you can set a custom group in your food diary and name is a specific time. For example, in the diary tab of the web version, select the settings icon (gear) in the top right corner. Select Diary Settings, then check a new box and name your group "8 am"

@Eric, as a gold user, you can organize your diary into groups to delineate Meals/times/whatever titles you want for grouping your foods/supplements. The default groups are Meal names and supplements, but if you are wanting to group them for specific times, I would suggest writing a time in the header as well as a title. @Susan_RD_101 also suggests in her previous post to take biometrics within a diary group and/or you can write a note with a time in it next to a specific food/Biometric/supplement.

To set up diary groups, on the web version click on the "Settings" Button in the top right corner of "Diary" and select "Diary Settings". Once inside the settings menu, select "Show Groups in Diary" and click OK. Now you will be able to sort your foods into meals! You can view the breakdown of each meal by clicking on the title of each group!

If you would like a more detailed breakdown of this information, feel free to read through the section on Diary Groups in our user guide at https://cronometer.com/help/diary/#groups.
