No more errors every five minutes

A limit meant for Nightscout watch links was checking every request our server handles, with one allowance shared by everyone, so at each five-minute sync the app could show errors on any screen. It now applies only to Nightscout links.

Released 7 October 2026

If the app showed errors on and off, often on the same minutes of the hour, this was very likely why.

馃悰 Bug Fixes

  • Errors on any screen at sync time: A limit that protects Nightscout watch links was checking every request our server handles, and because our server could not tell callers apart, everyone shared one allowance. Every five minutes, when phones sync, the allowance ran out and the app got errors on whatever it was loading. The limit now applies only to Nightscout links.
  • Counted one caller at a time: Our server now sees each caller's own address, so one busy watch or widget can no longer use up the allowance for everybody else.

馃摑 Notes

  • Nothing to update or reconnect. This is a change on our servers.
