While there are other alternatives available, the decision on whether this is the right option for you rests solely with you. The primary goal is to select the best solution to manage your or your loved one’s diabetes in consultation with a medical professional. It is important to avoid external pressure from individuals advocating for specific products. Please note, we have no financial ties to this software.

To complete the setup, you’ll need to follow the installation steps up to the section titled “Setting up followers.” During the process, you’ll be required to navigate through various menus, and this guide provides instructions on how to use them. If you have followers, make sure to complete the final installation step afterward.
