[QUOTE="SimonP78, post: 2661114, member: 556474"] I use the handheld reader to start the sensors, I've not tried using Juggluco for that purpose. I have tried using the Librelink app to start them and simply disabled alerts (iirc) and then killed the app from Settings > Applications once this was done. I have a Garmin watch with this watchface installed, which is the only thing I've done with the watch: [URL]https://apps.garmin.com/en-US/apps/8fab3746-f56f-4b41-b3c7-5f4aaeaed6c9[/URL] On my phone, the Garmin Connect app is installed and acts as a bridge to the watch face (all done transparently when you install the watchface via the ConnectIQ app). The phone-side part of the watchface, which lives in Garmin Connect, looks for the XDrip+ local webserver and reads blood glucose values from that (and also writes e.g. HR and steps to it). This is how data is passed in both directions between the watch and XDrip+. The original "patched Libre app" was patched to emit an Android Intent when a new reading is received (iirc there are some details about the nature of this Intent message on the Juggluco web pages - I'll dig out a link if you can't find it and are interested) as a way of getting decoded data out of the Libre app and into 3rd party apps (the alternative being using OOP2 to decode the message payload which e.g. XDrip+ reads directly from a libre(1|2) sensor. Juggluco has been programmed to emit an identical Intent (you can enable/disable this functionality) so it can stand in for the patched Libre app. Therefore to XDrip+ it looks like the patched libre app. As an aside Juggluco can also pretend to be XDrip+ and provide a local webserver in the same format that XDrip+ provides (so could be used with the Garmin watchface directly without using XDrip+ at all). I don't use the latter functionality (which you also enable/disable it in the settings) because I actually want to run XDrip+ to use its better (IMO) functionality and GUI. For me Juggluco is just there to decode the sensor data and provide 1min readings, which aren't currently supported via the XDrip+ & OOP2 combination. So you need to tell XDrip+ what data source to use (i.e. listen for that specific "I'm the patched libre app" Intent) and also enable the "pretend I'm the patched libre app" Intent within Juggluco's settings. That's still quite complicated I guess, please ask if any of that didn't make sense! :) Re screensaver display, I don't do this (I have the value displayed in the status bar at the top), but I believe both XDrip+ and Juggluco can do this via their settings.
