About this app

GlucoDataHandler (GDH): Your central hub for glucose readings on your Android devices!

Keep your glucose levels in check with GlucoDataHandler (GDH)! This innovative app receives data from various sources and visualizes it clearly on your Android smartphone, smartwatch (Wear OS, Miband, and Amazfit), and in your car (via GlucoDataAuto).

Your benefits with GDH:
- Diverse data sources:
- Cloud services: Seamless integration with LibreLinkUp, Dexcom Share, Medtrum, and Nightscout.
- Local apps: Compatible with Juggluco, xDrip+, AndroidAPS, Eversense, Dexcom BYODA, and Diabox.

- Customizable alarms: Configure alarms that notify you in time.
- Wear OS integration:
- Use practical complications on your watch face.
- Receive alarms directly on your watch.
- IMPORTANT NOTE: GDH is not a standalone Wear OS app. The phone app is required for setup.
- WatchDrip+ support: Use GDH with specific Mi Band, Xiaomi Smart Band and Amazfit devices.
- Support for Garmin and Fitbit watches
- Health Connect support
- Nightscout upload
- Accessibility: Full TalkBack support (Thanks to Alex for testing!).
- Android Auto: In conjunction with the GlucoDataAuto (GDA) app, you can keep track of your values while driving.

- Data forwarding: Share your glucose values as broadcasts to other compatible apps

Foreground service:
To ensure reliable data retrieval from cloud services at your configured interval, keep widgets, notifications, and Wear OS complications up to date, and ensure alerting, GDH runs as a foreground service in the background.

Accessibility Service API (Optional Feature):
GDH optionally uses the AccessibilityService API to display your glucose values directly on your Always On Display (AOD) screen. This feature is optional and requires a device that supports AOD. This permission is ONLY used to draw the glucose information onto the AOD. NO other data is accessed, collected, stored, or shared. The user has to grant this permission EXPLICITLY in the settings.

Ratings and reviews

Overall, the app works well and lets me read my Libre 3 / LibreLinkUp values directly on my Galaxy Watch, which is very convenient. My main concern is that it occasionally shows spikes that don’t appear in the Libre 3 app—sometimes 10–15 points higher than the actual readings. That can be a bit alarming, so improved accuracy or syncing would make this a much better experience.

Love the app, but... 1. I'd like to see a complication that combines the graph, current reading, delta and change. 2. With LibreLinkUp cloud service, I lose connection often and have to switch the cloud service off then back on in the phone app to immediately show a current reading. I've tried the setting to connect with the password next time, but it doesn't seem to help. My LibreLinkUp app never loses connection and neither does my other app using LibreLinkUp.

Fantastic! My work wouldn't let me install xDrip+ (so I could 'follow' my primary instance), but I found this app which did exactly what I want-- and more!! Now I can see (and hear!) my blood sugar info in my car via Android Auto!! I'll admit- I pay 13$/mo to T1Pal to host my Nightscout, but it's totally worth it, and that data is shared with friends, and then apps like this one, and even my SugarPixel clock. But I digress. This app is great, well thought-out, and the widgets are pretty, too
