Connect your CGM during setup

Near the end of setup, Bolus asks whether you want to connect a continuous glucose monitor. This is optional. Bolus works fully without one, and you can connect later from Settings at any time.

Your options

• FreeStyle Libre, which connects using your LibreLinkUp login
• Dexcom, which connects through Apple Health
• Skip, if you do not use a CGM

If you would rather get going first, choose skip. Nothing about your week depends on having a CGM connected.

What connecting adds

With a CGM connected, the Insights tab shows a glucose timeline and how your readings sat around your meals. This is there for you to reflect on. Bolus shows it as information, and does not use it to give you dosing or treatment advice.

Bolus is not a medical device. Carry on managing your glucose with your care team the way you normally would.

For the full steps for each device, and what Bolus reads, see Your CGM. Otherwise, that is setup done, and your first week is ready.
