There are two different methods how to access the readings from Eversense:
- Companion mode, which reads the data from the Eversense notifications (works with the standard Eversense App, available since ESEL version 3.0.1)
- Patched mode, which requires a patched version of the Eversense App (works completely offline, including backfilling)
First of all, you need to install ESEL:
- Get the ESEL apk e.g. from https://github.com/BernhardRo/Esel/tree/master/apk
- Install the apk on your phone
- You need to enable installation of Apps from unknown sources
- Configuration:
- Allow ESEL to run in the background (it will ask for it)
- Allow ESEL access to the Android Notifications (it will ask for it)
- In newer Android versions, these settings may be not directly accessible due to restricted settings. In this case restricted settings must be allowed first, see "Allow restricted settings" in https://support.google.com/android/answer/12623953
- Upload to Nightscout: Activate "Send to NightScout" in the preferences. It needs a configured AndroidAPS with internal NSClient or NSClient itself installed on the same phone
- Inter-App-Broadcasts: Activate "Send to AAPS and xDrip". In xDrip and/or AndroidAPS activate the input method "640g/Eversense".
- "Smooth Data" applies a smoothing algorithm to the raw values and provides these smoothed values instead of the raw readings. Smoothing is per default disabled.
- Install/use the official Eversense App from the Google Play Store
- Optional, but required for backfilling: Login to your Eversense account with your login data
- In Sync, enable Auto synchronization
- Configuration of ESEL:
- Disable the setting "Get data from patched Eversense App"
- For backfilling: Enable "Fill missing data from eversensedms.com"
- Provide as Email address and password your Eversense login data
- Uninstall the Eversense App (Warning: your local historical data (older than 1 week) will be lost!)
- Install the patched Eversense app (e.g. get it from https://cr4ck3d3v3r53n53.club) and use it as described by the vendor
- You need to enable installation of Apps from unknown sources
- Start the Eversense App, login, connect to your transmitter and use it just like the normal app.
- Configuration of ESEL:
- Enable the setting "Get data from patched Eversense App"
If you run ESEL with a fresh installation of Eversense for the first time, it can take up to 15min until your first values appear in xDrip!
