Medical Warnings

LAST UPDATED · 10 JULY 2026

About these warnings

These medical warnings are part of the SangraMate Terms of Use, and the app asks you to read and accept the same warnings before you first use it. They exist for one reason: SangraMate shows you information about your diabetes — it must never be the thing that directs your treatment.

Intended use

SangraMate is a data-logging and shared-monitoring application. It helps people living with type 1 diabetes record and review blood glucose, insulin, meals, activity and related events, and supports communication with the carers and clinicians they invite — their Care Circle.

It is designed to be used alongside primary diabetes monitoring devices, such as continuous glucose monitoring systems and insulin pumps, and is not intended to replace them.

Important warnings

  • SangraMate is not a medical device. It is not intended for the diagnosis, treatment or monitoring of any disease or medical condition.
  • Keep using the primary, manufacturer-approved display of your CGM, pump or glucometer, and follow your healthcare professional's instructions.
  • Do not make any therapy decision based solely on data displayed by SangraMate. When a value matters, confirm it with an approved meter or your approved CGM app.
  • SangraMate is not intended to control insulin pumps or any other drug-delivery device.
  • SangraMate should not be used by anyone unable to use mobile devices proficiently.
  • You use SangraMate at your own risk. The app is provided "as is".

Readings can be delayed or missing

Glucose data reaches SangraMate through your LibreLinkUp account and is typically refreshed about every two minutes. Delivery depends on your sensor, your phone, your network and Abbott's LibreLinkUp service, and any link in that chain can be delayed or unavailable.

Compared to your original CGM system, data in SangraMate may be delayed, incomplete or inaccurate, and SangraMate cannot guarantee a real-time alert for a dangerous glucose level. Never rely on SangraMate alone for time-critical decisions.

Forecasts are estimates

Projections of where glucose is heading — up to 90 minutes ahead — are statistical estimates built from recent data. They can be wrong, especially around meals, exercise, stress and sensor noise. Treat them as a heads-up, never as a measurement.

Alarms have limits

Smart alarms depend on fresh data, your device settings and iOS notification permissions. Critical alerts can break through silent mode only when you grant that permission. Alarms may fire late, not at all, or when not needed — they complement, and never replace, the monitoring your care team prescribed.

AI content is not medical advice

Chat answers, briefings, photo carb estimates and generated reports are produced by AI and can be inaccurate or incomplete. The app labels them accordingly. Review AI-estimated values — especially carbohydrates — before you rely on them.

Your Care Circle is not your care team

Carers and clinicians you invite can view your logged data, but they are not substitutes for your primary care team. Decisions about your treatment remain between you and your healthcare professionals.

In an emergency

In the event of severe hypoglycaemia, severe hyperglycaemia, diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) or any other urgent medical event, do not rely on SangraMate. Call 000 in Australia — or your local emergency number — or go to your nearest emergency department immediately.
