Three layouts, nine colours, every position yours to choose. ━━━━━━━━━━━━ SEE MY OTHER FREE APPS GGlance CGM - widget and 12-hour graph https://apps.garmin.com/apps/7c75ab12-67c8-47ad-8fb9-e6253576c752 GGlance CGM Data Field - glucose inside activities, with a low alert https://apps.garmin.com/apps/bddd4e35-05ea-4bd9-8312-4021ef5a68c7 ━━━━━━━━━━━━ SETUP Guide: https://gglance.app/en/tutorials Set GGlance as your watch face, pick your CGM source, then enter that account's login in THIS face's settings - watch faces have their own, separate from the app and data field. If you don't see your glocuse right after installing the app, wait a few minutes before the watchface properly fetch all the data. ━━━━━━━━━━━━ FEATURES • Three layouts - ARCS (three gauges, stacked clock, curve at the foot), GLANCE (clock, reading, curve, nothing else), DASHBOARD (wide clock, four fields around the reading) • Customise on the watch, no phone - hold the face, then Customize. The layout picker draws a miniature of each one. Every position takes any of thirteen metrics: glucose, heart rate, steps, battery, Body Battery, calories, distance, floors, notifications, weather, date or time • History graph on every layout, 3 to 12 hours, with your high/low guide lines, the hours along the foot, and the reading's age - so a stale number is never ambiguous • Colour means something - white in range, red below your low, your main colour above your high, grey once over 15 minutes old. A low stays red whatever colour you pick • Nine main colours including White, eight backgrounds, four shapes • Night mode - 22:00 to 07:00, one soft grey on true black. Choose what stays lit: time + glucose, plus the curve, or time alone • mg/dL or mmol/L, your own targets, 24h or AM/PM, battery as percent or days ━━━━━━━━━━━━ FREESTYLE LIBRE • A Libre 2 or 3 sensor with the LibreLink app on your phone • A LibreLinkUp (https://www.librelinkup.com) "follower" account following your sensor - enter ITS email and password, not your Abbott/LibreLink login • Accept any pending terms in the LibreLinkUp app first, or sign-in is refused DEXCOM • A Dexcom G6 or G7 (G4/G5 too). Dexcom ONE and ONE+ are NOT supported - no Dexcom Share, so no app can read them • Dexcom Share ON with at least one follower (Dexcom app, Settings then Share). With no follower Dexcom uploads nothing - you can follow yourself from a second phone • Use the login of the PERSON WEARING THE SENSOR. Opposite of Libre: a Dexcom follower login signs in but shows no data ━━━━━━━━━━━━ PRIVACY No account, no tracking, glucose history never stored on a server. Libre: your password never leaves your phone. Dexcom: sign-in goes through the GGlance relay - encrypted, forwarded only to Dexcom, never stored. ━━━━━━━━━━━━ DISCLAIMER GGlance is informational only. It is NOT a medical device and NOT for diagnosis, treatment decisions or insulin dosing. It does not replace your Libre or Dexcom system, a meter, or medical advice. No alarms - a Garmin watch face cannot vibrate or sound an alert, so colour on a low is a visual cue only. For alerts use the LibreLink or Dexcom app. Values may be delayed, inaccurate or unavailable. Always confirm critical values with your official app, sensor or meter, and follow your healthcare provider's guidance. ━━━━━━━━━━━━ Independent app, not affiliated with, endorsed by, or supported by Abbott, Dexcom or Garmin.

What's new

v1.2 Bug fix v1.1 Fixed the trend arrow being hard to read in the Arcs and Dashboard face styles on some watches — it's now clear and legible on every layout. The clock no longer shows a banded/stepped color effect on some displays. The battery icon now fills to show your actual charge level, instead of a fixed icon. Glucose data now appears within seconds of picking the face for the first time, instead of waiting up to 5 minutes. Settings screen cleaned up (credentials no longer mislabeled as LibreLinkUp-only — this face also supports Dexcom).
