This tab also shows previews of:

Predictive Notifications

The Predictive tab provides three optional notifications that alert you to developing glucose conditions.

  • Predictive Excess Insulin: Alerts when GlucoGlance projects that active insulin may cause your glucose to fall too low.
  • Predictive Excess Carbs: Alerts when GlucoGlance projects that glucose may rise above your target range.
  • Rapid Cycle Shift: Alerts when GlucoGlance detects a significant change in insulin sensitivity that may change the effect of your active insulin.

Each notification can be turned on or off independently. The examples displayed on the Predictive tab show the type of information each notification will provide.

Insulin Notifications

Use this tab to enable or disable insulin-related notifications.

Excess Carbs Notifications

Turn this on to receive a notification when GlucoGlance calculates that additional carbohydrates may be needed.

Choose which app opens when the notification is tapped:

  • Insulin pump app
  • GlucoGlance

Excess Insulin Notifications

Turn this on to receive a notification when GlucoGlance calculates that excess insulin may be active.

The previews show how both notifications and their status bar icons will appear.

Only one excess notification is displayed at a time.

Voice Alerts

Turn on Enable Voice Notifications to allow GlucoGlance to speak glucose and insulin information.

  • 30 minutes

Global Notification Behavior

When enabled, GlucoGlance manages its own notification behavior instead of relying only on Android notification channel settings.

This is the recommended setting and allows GlucoGlance notifications to operate consistently if Android notification channels are changed or disabled.
