Home and desk displays

Choose the exact display implementation, then configure viewing access to a Nightscout site that already has fresh data.

• SugarPixel: separate Classic/Mini and Plus instructions.
• M5Stack/M5StickC: firmware determines whether it receives data from an iPhone or directly from Nightscout.
• Tidbyt: no verified maintained Pro setup is supplied; assess the exact app before purchase.

Create a separate readable token when a display can authenticate directly. Keep Wi-Fi and token values private. Compare a new reading and its timestamp with the browser, then check the display under its ordinary network conditions.

A lit screen or a successful Wi-Fi join does not prove data is current. If Nightscout is current and one display is stale, investigate that display’s configuration; restarting the CGM or changing therapy will not repair its follower connection.
