About

Public BETA of the CGM Connect Watchface digital - be the first to get new features and updates, with the downside of things potentially being unstable and energy consuming! Access the data of your Freestlye Libre 2/2+/3/3+ CGM shared via LibreLinkUp (https://librelinkup.com/), Dexcom via Dexcom Share, Nightscout, Medtrum Follower, Twiist Follower, Sibionics or your xDrip/Juggluco with this watchfield on your Garmin watch in mg/dl or mmol/L. Works with every phone that runs Garmin Connect. Due to technical limitations it refreshes at max once every 5 minutes so be patient after setting it up! That also includes attempts where Bluetooth is not working, the phone not responding, etc... This watchface is FREE. If you like this app and would like to show your appreciation, submit a rating, send me a kind message and/or buy me a coffee using this link https://paypal.me/bruderjakob23 or BTC to 1HJZzFNfsZn4eNkugURZxBnmZZTep3cQDr If you are having trouble figuring out the right login-credentials, please make sure that LibreLinkUp (https://librelinkup.com/) is working properly for you and try them with the widget (https://apps.garmin.com/de-DE/apps/034a3784-b27f-4f2a-a109-67413a5f4f83) - it can evaluate your settings every 15 seconds compared to the 5min of the watchface! See this page for more details: https://cgmconnect.exparrot.de/ Always feel free to reach out to me! Use the "Contact Developer" button if you need assistance and I'll try get back to you within 24H. Please check your emails spam folder if you did not receive a reply. 12/24H settings for displaying time have to be changed in your devices "System Settings - Time - Time Format" - the watchface will follow whatever is set there! A blue arc at 9 o'clock will be displayed, if the watch thinks it is not connected to your smartphone. Data viewed from LibreLinkUp includes sensor expiry and the trend arrow (customizable) only trend arrow for Dexcom. You can customize the watchface to show none (at the bottom of the settings set the graphs to "empty"), one or two graphs and up to 8 data-fields depending on how many graphs you configured. If you'd like to preserve battery, disabling the graphs and the seconds are you best bet. On my dated Fenix5s the watchface consumes ~10%/day showing seconds and one graph. For it to work, your phone needs to be connected to the internet, to your sensor and your Garmin watch. For Libre it is required that you set up LibreLinkUp and share your data with that account. For Dexcom, you need to share your data with at least one follower and use your Dexcom credentials. Configure the widget in the Connect IQ app by selecting your device, entering your credentials and selecting mmol/L or mg/dl. Your sensor and apps will continue to work as usual and no warranty is voided. All personal data is stored *only* on your device. Your data is passed through a service located in the EU to do some processing so that it fits the watch. No data is stored - no trace left. Things not yet included but on my TODO list: inactivity-graph Temperature & Weather is powered by weatherapi.com *Disclaimers, please read:* - CGM Connect Watchface digital is not intended to serve as or to replace the real-time display of CGM data of the primary device or standard blood glucose home monitoring.
