1
Confirm your site is working
Open your Nightscout site in a web browser, confirm readings are visible, and copy your Nightscout URL.
2
Check whether your site requires a token
Open your Nightscout site in a private/incognito browser. If you’re prompted for an API Secret, your site is restricted and you’ll need a read-only token.
3
Create a read-only token (if required)
Open your Nightscout site and go to Admin Tools. Confirm a role named readable exists with permission
*:*:read — create it if it doesn’t. Add a new Subject: Name = SugarPixel, Roles = readable. Copy the generated access token.4
Enter details in SugarPixel+
Type your URL (and token if required) exactly as shown — SugarPixel+ doesn’t support pasting — then tap Test Connection.
If Nightscout is receiving reliable, real-time pump data — such as from a DIY pump app — SugarPixel+ can display IOB and COB on the main screen. Toggle this under ≡ → Display → User Themes.
