About

The blood glucose data field shows CGM data such as the current blood glucose, current trend, a history graph and a rough indication of the age of the blood glucose value. The blood glucose data field depends on the xDrip android app, or other app running on the phone that provides the xDrip Web Service interface (for example Juggluco), to obtain the glucose values from the sensor. Note: The "Web Service" needs to be enabled in the xDrip app. Go to "Settings" and then "Inter-app settings" and set "xDrip Web Service" to "ON". Both mmol/l and mg/dl are supported. Use the Connect IQ app on the phone to configure what units to use. Go to "My Data Fields" and choose "Blood Glucose Data Field" tap "Settings" and choose unit type. Disclaimers: This program is only for educational purposes and is not intended to replace cgm monitoring systems or finger-stick blood glucose tests.
