Sensor Expiry

xDrip » FAQ » Sensor expiry


Show on main screen

You can have xDrip show when the sensor expires at the bottom of the main screen.
To do that, bring up the home shelf.

Enable “Show Sensor Expiry”.

If you use a G5 in non-native mode, or if you use a G5 (or an old G6) and have enabled preemptive restart, your sensor will not stop. But, if you enable this setting, it will show on the main screen that it will. So, you should disable this setting in those cases.




Notifications

You can enable sensor expiry notifications under Alerts.
When enabled, you will receive notifications 24 hours, 9 hours and 2 hours before expiry.
