MyCGMLog vs Sugarmate by Tandem

Sugarmate is a general diabetes companion app with glucose monitoring, while MyCGMLog focuses on structured CGM session and issue tracking.

Overview

Sugarmate is designed as a general diabetes companion app and integrates with Dexcom and Nightscout to display glucose data and notifications. While you can manually add notes about device changes, these notes are free-form and not structured around CGM-specific details like sensor serial numbers, lot numbers, or transmitter IDs. This makes it harder to review the history of a single sensor or understand patterns across multiple sessions. MyCGMLog focuses specifically on logging CGM sessions and recording issues in a structured, searchable way.

Key Differences

  • MyCGMLog provides structured fields for sensor serial numbers, lot numbers, and transmitter IDs
  • MyCGMLog creates a searchable history of individual sensors and sessions
  • Sugarmate integrates with Dexcom/Nightscout for live glucose data
  • Sugarmate provides customizable glucose alerts and notifications
  • MyCGMLog helps organize information needed for sensor replacements
