When Do You Get Which Alert?
You always get your Urgent Low Alarm. If you are an Android user, there is one
exception. If your device is on the most restrictive Do Not Disturb setting, you will not
get your Urgent Low Alarm.
Depending on how quickly you’ll be at 55 mg/dL, you get either your Urgent Low Soon
Alert or your Low Alert:
• Within 20 minutes? You get the Urgent Low Soon Alert.
• Not that fast? You get the Low Alert.
If you get one, you won’t get the other for 30 minutes.
High Alert
This notifies you when your G6 readings are above your target glucose range.
What you hear, feel, and see
• Initial alert: Vibrates 2 times.
• Until confirmed: Vibrates and beeps 2 times every 5 minutes.
