CamWatch - Sync Your CGM to Apple Watch

CamWatch is a companion app for CamAPS FX users who want to display their blood glucose readings on their Apple Watch. By leveraging iCloud contact sync, CamWatch provides a simple way to see your glucose level, trend arrow, and reading time directly on your wrist.

📱 HOW IT WORKS

CamWatch monitors notifications, extracts the BG value and trend arrow then syncs this to a designated iCloud contact. Your Apple Watch automatically syncs contacts from iCloud, so your glucose data appears on your watch face within seconds.

✨ KEY FEATURES

• Automatic Notification Monitoring - Listens for notifications containing glucose values in the background with smart extraction of glucose values and trend arrows

• iCloud Contact Sync - Syncs glucose data to your iCloud contacts with multiple account support and automatic retry on failures
