The "Carbo App" is a mobile application for type 1 diabetics with the goal to perform the whole process of counting carbohydrates, optimizing the amount of insulin to be administered, avoiding hypo and hyperglycemia.

Carbo App is already developed and is in the test phase (www.carbo.pt). We therefore want to improve the database by increasing the number of foods included in the database (currently with approximately 3000 foods), including photos of foods and their allergens for a more correct and safe choice of food; to develop the social and educational side through the inclusion of periodical publications to promote a healthy diet; and to update to new functionalities of the application.
