Follow with LoopFollow

LoopFollow can display Nightscout data on iPhone. It does not require you to change the source uploader or configure remote control just to view readings.

Setup

1. Confirm your Pro Nightscout site has current data.
2. Create a dedicated readable access token for the follower.
3. In a new LoopFollow installation choose Setup Nightscout. For an existing setup open Menu → Settings → Nightscout.
4. Enter the full site URL and token. Current LoopFollow can also extract the token from a token-bearing sharing URL; treat that entire link as a secret.
5. Check the connection status, then compare a new reading and time with Nightscout. OK (Read) indicates viewing access.
6. Review the app’s background-refresh and alarm settings for the follower phone. Use its documented alert-test options without changing actual glucose or treatment records.

If the app reports a missing/invalid token, fix that credential. If the site is current but the follower stops in the background, inspect the phone/app refresh configuration. Remote commands need separate version-specific setup and permissions; this viewing guide does not enable them.
