SugarPixel+ does not officially support CamAPS. However, some users have successfully connected SugarPixel+ by using xDrip+ to read CGM values and upload them for SugarPixel+ to download.
Important
  • These steps are Android only
  • This is a community-provided workaround
  • Setup should be tested before ordering SugarPixel+
  • We may not be able to provide full support for issues related to this configuration
These steps are commonly used with Dexcom, and users have reported that they also work with Libre sensors when paired with CamAPS.

​
How This Works

  1. CamAPS manages the CGM sensor
1

xDrip+

runs on the same phone and reads CGM data
  1. xDrip+ uploads glucose values to Nightscout or Gluroo (recommended), or Dexcom Share (Dexcom sensors only)
  2. SugarPixel+ downloads data from that upload source
2

Install and Configure xDrip+

Install xDrip+ on the same Android phone running CamAPS.
  • xDrip+ is an open-source app and is not available in the Play Store
  • Installation requires allowing apps from unknown sources
  • Follow the community instructions for using CamAPS with xDrip+
Once configured, confirm that xDrip+ is displaying glucose readings before continuing.

Configure Your Upload Method

Once xDrip+ is receiving readings, configure it to upload data so SugarPixel+ can download it.Nightscout or Gluroo (works with Dexcom and Libre sensors)
  • If you already have a Nightscout site, configure xDrip+ to upload to it using Cloud Upload → Nightscout Sync → Base URL: https://YourToken@YourUrl/api/v1
  • If you do not have Nightscout, install the Gluroo app (free), skip CGM sync during setup, then go to Devices → Other and copy the Gluroo Global Connect URL and API Secret
  • Enter the upload address into xDrip+ using the same format: https://YourToken@YourUrl/api/v1
After configuring the upload in xDrip+, enter the corresponding URL and API Secret / Token into SugarPixel+.
