Dont worry, the process is shockingly painless, not even a pinch.
you’re able to also purchase more patches through the Stelo site or through retailers likeAmazon.
you might connect the Stelo app toAppleHealth orGoogleHealth so that connect your activity and sleep data.

Theres also a companion app that your healthcare provider can download to view the sensors results.
How did my session go?
Theres an Events tab that you’ve got the option to use to log events throughout the day.

I monitored the glucose recorded through the biosensor versus my blood glucose test to see the difference.
