Which CGMs does Bolus support

Bolus works with two continuous glucose monitors: FreeStyle Libre and Dexcom. Connecting one is optional, and Bolus plans your food perfectly well without it.

The two options

• FreeStyle Libre connects using your LibreLinkUp login, the same account you use with the Libre apps. See connect FreeStyle Libre.
• Dexcom connects through Apple Health on your iPhone. See connect Dexcom.

Bolus does not tie you to a particular model. If your device works with LibreLinkUp or shares its readings with Apple Health, Bolus can read them.

What you get by connecting

With a CGM connected, the Insights tab shows a glucose timeline and how your readings sat around your meals, so you can reflect on how the week went.

Bolus shows this as information for you. It is not a medical device, it does not give dosing or treatment advice, and it does not tell you to change what you eat. You carry on managing your glucose with your care team as normal.

Where to connect

You can connect during setup, or any time later from Settings, under Health Data. To understand exactly what Bolus reads, see what Bolus reads from your CGM.
