Feature Request: Notification when sensor wear-time is almost over

[biglu91]

Hi! Thank you for this useful app. I am using it to show my girlfriend's BG in my phone's status bar. Data is fetched from Librelinkup that is also installed on my phone. It would be useful for us if GDH could remind us with a notification when the sensor is almost over and perhaps makes us choose when (how may hours or days) to receive said notification. This would help us remember to bring with us a new sensor since we are often not home.
Thank you

Hi,
I'm using a calendar entry, so I will see it.
But I will think about.

Btw. please do not use LibreLinkUp and GDH, as Abbott may blocks too many requests to their server.

Thank you for the reply.

Can you explain better this? If it should not be used why is it an option in the source settings of GDH? What should we use instead? Thanks

In GDH you can use the LibreLinkUp source, but this source requests the data from the Abbott servers, that is ok.
If you also have installed the LibreLinkUp app, this app will also request data from Abbott servers, this can cause an error "too many requests".
The LibreLinkUp app is only needed to setup the follower account and should be stopped or uninstalled afterwards.

Oh, thank you for the clarification. Being using it like this for a year and haven't encountered any error. I will certainly stop it now. Thank you again

Ok, if there no errors, it is ok. But I have seen a lot of users reporting this problem. Maybe it depends on the server you are connected to.

Back to the topic. I added it to my todo list. I'm thinking about 2 notifications, one 24h and one 1h before sensor end.

But it will take some time, as the todo list becomes longer and longer...
