settings separately in each

Why: Settings are specific to each display device and don’t carry over to
other devices. If you set up one device and then use another device with
different settings, you might not get an Alarm or Alerts.
Consequences: You may miss a severe low or high glucose event.
Precaution
Do: After connecting any accessories, make sure that the smart device
settings allow you to continue receiving Alarm or Alerts on the smart device.
Why: Using an accessory device (like a smart watch) might override your
smart device sounds.
Consequences: Alarm or Alerts might vibrate or be heard on the accessory
instead of your smart device, causing you to miss severe low or high glucose
event.
