The essentials, together
Large glucose numbers, a trend indicator, reading age, and recent history. Choose mg/dL or mmol/L.
A display. A bridge. Your data.
A dedicated screen for a quick glance. A bridge to bring your sensor readings online. SugarData connects them in one simple place.
01 / The display
Keep glucose visible on your desk or bedside table. See the reading, where it’s heading, and how recently it arrived.

Large glucose numbers, a trend indicator, reading age, and recent history. Choose mg/dL or mmol/L.
Use your own or a shared SugarData bridge, connect an existing Nightscout feed, or read a compatible sensor directly on a display that supports bridging.
Adjust brightness, units, and display settings. Check device status and install firmware updates from SugarData.

02 / The bridge
A SugarData Bridge reads a compatible glucose sensor over Bluetooth and uploads readings over WiFi. Use a dedicated bridge, or let a display with bridging support do both jobs.

History & sharing
Displays & web app
Keep a dedicated bridge near your sensor. Your other displays receive its readings through SugarData.
Review a seven-day chart in the app, along with sensor status and battery information where supported. Devices can backfill up to six hours of readings.
Give someone a viewer role to see readings, or a manager role to help with settings. Both displays and bridges use the same permissions.
A display with bridging support can show your readings and send them to SugarData. No separate bridge is needed for that setup.
Your setup, your choice
A display for seeing your glucose. A bridge for bringing it online. Choose the connection that fits your space.
Direct sensor connections require bridging support. Displays without it receive readings from a SugarData bridge or a Nightscout feed.
