  • Publication number: 20160095148
    Abstract: Systems and methods for a continuous monitoring of analyte values received from an analyte sensor system are provided. One method for a wireless data communication between an analyte sensor system and a mobile device involves storing identification information associated with a transceiver of the analyte sensor system, the identification information entered by a user of the mobile device via a custom application running on the mobile device; causing the custom application to enter a background mode; searching for advertisement signals; receiving an advertisement signal from the transceiver; authenticating the transceiver based on the identification information; prompting the user to bring the custom application to a foreground mode; causing the custom application to request a confirmation from the user that a data connection with the transceiver is desired; receiving the confirmation from the user; and completing the data connection with the transceiver.

  • Publication number: 20160066826
    Abstract: “Zero-click” viewing of sensor data without any user input is provided. A display with sensor data may be “always on,” and may enable discrete viewing of sensor data without significant user hassle. Also, a system may be configured to display only current data, and/or to display the most current data for only a set interval. Also, one device in a continuous analyte monitoring system may be designated as a primary device, or hub, for receiving sensor data, and may control the flow of information and/or alerts to other devices in the system. Sensor data and/or alerts may be sent to a hierarchy of devices and/or persons in a designated order.
