Stop Sharing
The Sharer can swipe the On/Off switch to temporarily stop glucose
information and Alarm/Alerts from being sent to Followers. Sharing stops until
the Sharer turns the On/Off Switch back on.
For reasons of safety and intended use, the Follower will get a message
telling them the Sharer’s data was set to Not Sharing . The Follower’s
dashboard will show the Sharer has stopped sharing glucose information.
