Digibete is a free service providing support and resources to all children with T1D and their families. These are provided via the Digibete website, but we would also encourage everyone within our service to download the free app.

The Digibete App does not replace the care given by the DOT Tayside team, but is there to complement the service.

Three reasons for you to download and use the DigiBete App today from either the App Store or Google Play:

1. Communication

DOT Tayside can send you relevant information and resources about managing your type 1 diabetes at home as well as newsletters & clinic updates. DigiBete will also send out regular communications.

2. Store Ratios & Record your HbA1c

The My T1D area in the App allows you to store all your insulin ratios safely should your diabetes device break. You will also be able to record your HbA1c history, store care plans, future appointments, and notes. In case of emergency it is so handy to have everything you need all in the one place on your phone or tablet.

3. Essential help, resources and awards!

Digibete app users have direct access to over 200 type 1 diabetes films, including sick day rules, and age appropriate resources to support self-management, managing exercise and all essential training. You can gain awards and track your progress in the Awards section.
