Averages Report
This report shows your average blood sugar for the past 7, 30,
60, and 90 days.
This report should not take the place of tests
recommended by your doctor such as glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c).
The report will also display a rough "best guess" estimate
of your HbA1C. Because this estimate is based only on the data
that you've entered, it may be inaccurate in certain circumstances
depending on your data entry patterns. It's intended for informational
purposes only - you shouldn't rely
on it for medical decision-making purposes or as a subsitute for
actual HbA1C testing.

Range report
This report shows the portion of your glucose measurements that
fall within the ranges that you've specified in the Preferences
screen. Note that the total of the percentages shown may not add
up to 100 percent because you may have some readings that are neither
high, low, nor in your specified target range.
You can specify the date range to analyze by tapping on the "Start
Date" and "End Date" items.

Category Report
The category report analyzes your readings based on their category.
If you have been using the category feature to categorize your records
as you enter them, this report may help you find patterns in your
readings. See Recording and Editing
Data for more information on using categories.
Use the "Show" dropdown list next to select the measure
that you are interested in. You can choose from the following items:
- Average Glucose
- Minimum Glucose
- Number of Glucose Readings
- Glucose Readings in Target Range
- High Glucose Readings
- Low Glucose Readings
You can specify the date range to analyze by tapping on the "Start
Date" and "End Date" items.
