Follow with Shuggah or xDrip4iOS

These are separate app distributions. Use instructions matching the installed app; do not assume new xDrip4iOS menus exist in Shuggah.

Current xDrip4iOS follower path

On a device intended to be a follower, choose Follower under Settings → Data Source, then Nightscout as the source. Configure the Nightscout site and authentication using Settings → Sharing and Services → Nightscout, then Test Connection. Use a dedicated readable token where the version supports it. Return to Settings → Data Source → Status to check server availability, then compare a newly received reading with the site.

If you want compatible pump/status information, AID Type in the Nightscout service selects the source format: Loop or OpenAPS/Trio/iAPS/AAPS. It changes interpretation of uploaded status, not insulin delivery. Select only the format written by your actual uploader.

Changing a current Master installation to Follower can remove its active direct CGM setup. Do not change the mode of a working sensor phone just to test a secondary viewing connection; use the intended follower device.

Shuggah

Use the installed version’s Nightscout follower settings and in-app help. Enter the complete Pro site URL and the supported viewing credential format. A maintained primary Shuggah menu specification was not verified for this guide, so support may need the version and a redacted connection-screen screenshot to identify exact labels. Do not provide the Pro account password or silently substitute an Android upload URL.

Confirm and troubleshoot

Nightscout must already be current. Check follower value, time and units; never upload the downloaded readings back to the same site. If authentication fails, verify the token’s readable role rather than making the site public. For a fully documented alternative, use LoopFollow.
