Push Alerts¶
Push alerts require the use of our CGMSIM mobile app. They are device specific, and can only be activated when logged in with a handheld Android / iOS cell phone or tablet !
Apple iOS and watchOS¶
The CGMSIM mobile app for iOS requires Testflight to be installed on your iPhone.
Testflight is Apple's official app for distributing iOS applications for testing purposes. Download and install it from the AppStore.
With Testflight installed, request an invitation from one of the developers here !
Alternatively, just click on this link on your iOS device: https://testflight.apple.com/join/Oz7Ybtjs
When requesting an invitation, indicate the email address used as your Apple ID. Once your request is accepted, cgmsim-app will be visible in Testflight and valid for 90 days.
You'll be prompted to install, update or open your app. Notice the expiration date ! A new version will be deployed every 90 days and you'll be prompted update your app.
A maximum number of 100 users is allowed when distributing our application with Testflight, so be patient. We'll try to increase this number if the amount of requests requires it.
