Time in Range (TIR) data reflects the last 24 hours and requires a minimum of one sensor glucose (SG) value to display any data.

   In order to receive notifications in the form of:

   • ALERTS
   • ALARMS
   • MESSAGES
   • REMINDERS

   
   

   Notifications from the pump must be toggled ON!

   When repeat notifications is on, app notifications will repeat every minute

3. Notifications basics:
   
   • Notifications will appear at the top of the Home screen in the app
   • When app isn’t opened, notifications will appear as all notifications from apps appear
   • All alerts and alarms can be dismissed on the app, but the alerts and alarms can ONLY be cleared on the pump
   • If Repeat Notifications is on, the notification will repeat every minute
   • If notifications are off or the phone is set to Do Not Disturb, notifications will not be received through the app

The MiniMed^™ Mobile app (Version 1.2 and higher) is also compatible with Apple^® Watch*. You can monitor your values on your watch face or tap to enter the app. You must connect your Apple^® Watch with your compatible iPhone^® device to get alerts and notifications on your watch. The watch communicates with the iPhone^® device, not the insulin pump, so if your iPhone^® device is out of range, you will not get updated glucose information on your watch.

Installing MiniMed^™ Mobile on your Apple^® Watch

1. Make sure your Apple^® Watch and iPhone^® device are connected. You can check this in your Bluetooth^® settings and use the Apple Watch User Guide if it’s not.
2. Download the MiniMed^™ Mobile app from the App Store on your iPhone^® device if you haven’t done so already.
3. Next, you need the companion app on your Apple^® Watch. If this does not happen automatically, there are two ways of doing it manually:

Watch faces and complications

Complications are pieces of information from apps that appear on a watch face. Installing the MiniMed^™ Mobile app complication allows you to quickly access your sensor glucose on your Apple^® Watch. You can add complications to your Watch to make MiniMed^™ Mobile app easier to use, here’s how with the Apple^® Watch.

1. With the watch face showing, touch and hold the display then tap Edit.
2. Swipe left all the way to the end and tap on the complication node you wish to use.
3. Use the digital crown to scroll through the options. MiniMed^™ Mobile has three complications that can be used, choose the one that best suits you:

* Not supported in WatchOS 9

Note - Do not add a color or tint modification to your chosen watch face. This can cause the MiniMed^™ Mobile app to become difficult to read.

The MiniMed™ Mobile app currently supports these complications: Activity Analog, Activity Digital, Explorer, Mickey Mouse, Motion, Photos, Utility, Astronomy, Breathe, Kaleidoscope, Liquid Metal, Fire and Water, Nike Analog, Portraits, Solar Graph, Timelapse, Toy Story, and Vapor.

Our team is working to bring support to additional complications and watch faces. Access this webpage from your phone, so you can download the complications and easily set them up.
