Hi I’m new to all of this I am currently using tomato with my Miao Miao and Libre, but spike seems to be the most popular.
I don’t own a pc, just a Iphone and I pad, how do I continually sign and renew with a Pc if I want to swap over?
You need weekly access to a PC to re-sign the app, as it has to be unofficially loaded onto your iPhone. One solution is to buy an Apple developer account (£89 a year) and you’ll only need to re-sign it once a year, so could you maybe borrow a computer to do it on?

I think a lot of people are using Tomato for that.
I’ve just got new Apple Watch 5 - hve been using Libre, MM and Tomato. V disappointed as cannot seem to get sound and vibration alerts on my Watch. Get Vibration and Sound alerts for messages, WhatsApp etc. V disappointed. Tried so many settings no difference. Any suggestions- people say Spike better but not sure when read the problem with it on here.

Which xDrip? If for the iPhone the instructions are here https://lookaside.fbsbx.com/file/4....bYZ-P4KiCV8fmsuKwQk-rC-9GSoltBJ6hSHSnecmAa6eQ which is from their Facebook page (pardon the link size) and it's a whole lot better than tomato, there's the option to send to a watch complication (I don't have one so unsure of the terms) but then I'd say tomato isn't fit for purpose :)
