Would love to use this standalone on my Apple Watch (using Libre 2). Is it possible?

As of now, if you want to have current glucose levels shown on the watch, you can Export to Apple Calendar and add a calendar watch complication to see the level, as described in #466

It looks like there was some development effort to have a native watch complication from the app directly (#506 and #508) but it hasn't landed in a development build yet.

Hi @DAcodedBEAT,

To elaborate: What I'm digging for here is a way to leave the phone at home and just use the Apple Watch by itself. This would require an Apple Watch app that has a direct bluetooth connection to the sensor.

I'm guessing the bluetooth connection implementation could be 99% reused on the watch. Although the initial step (scanning to connect to the sensor) might still have to be done from the phone?

I think using the Calendar might very well be the best way to display it still. If things haven't changed since I last looked at complications are a bit rate limited to preserve battery, while the calendar always updates instantaneously.
