Tidepool Uploader

Still workshopping the headline for this one, but for now we're going with: A Buffet of Bluetooth Updates!

Tidepool Uploader now supports the ForaCare TN'G Voice meter, uploading via Bluetooth.
Feature Requirements

More on the Bluetooth front, OneTouch Verio Flex, OneTouch Verio Reflect, and OneTouch Select Plus Flex can upload to Tidepool via Bluetooth on Mac and Windows machines.
Feature Requirements

We've also added support for ReliOn Platinum blood glucose meters.
Feature Requirements

ReliOn Platinum support did require a new device driver, so that's bundled in this latest version too.
Feature Requirements

We've also made a small modification to ensure that OneTouch Ultra 2 and OneTouch UltraMini uploads use our device driver instead of an older one that's no longer supported on Windows.

Tidepool Uploader

Quality of life is the big focus for this update.

We've fixed a bug that would cause Tidepool Uploader to try and download an update twice.
Feature Requirements

Starting with this update, the next time you see an "Update Available" pop up, we'll include some additional details to give you more context about the latest release and the version you are currently using.
Feature Requirements

We've expanded the list of Contour Next meters within the Device Selection menu to help you feel confident you've selected the right "Contour" listing. Hopefully this reduces some confusion.
Feature Requirements

We've adjusted the logic of Tidepool Uploader to prioritize the correct USB cable when attempting an upload.
Feature Requirements

As much as we hate when something goes wrong, error message details will show more information by default, which will help when folks contact support@tidepool.org with any issues.

Tidepool Uploader

Lots to celebrate in this release.

Tidepool Uploader now supports uploading data from GlucoRx Nexus, GlucoRx HCT, GlucoRx Nexus Mini Ultra, and GlucoRx Go meters.
Feature Requirements

We've also made some major improvements related to Tandem pump uploads. Carbs entered into the pump that are not associated with a bolus event are now properly uploaded.
Feature Requirements

Boluses that are initiated from the t:connect app are now properly identified as mobile boluses.
Feature Requirements

To further assist with future troubleshooting needs, we've expanded our internal "binary blob" service to capture more data about Tandem uploads. We hate it when things go wrong, but now we'll have more information up front to make identifying and fixing problems more efficient.
Feature Requirements

We've also updated how we handle basal rate changes beyond what has been scheduled to ensure we're capturing both the percent change as well as the absolute basal rate.
Feature Requirements

We fixed an issue that caused some Tandem uploads to fail because of an unexpected basal rate change value.
Feature Requirements

For our internal reporting, we've expanded some of the details we are capturing for Tidepool Uploader events to include computer operating system.
Feature Requirements

Finally, we've added a link to a key troubleshooting guide if we detect you encounter an issue that commonly impacts Omnipod DASH and OneTouch Verio uploads in regulated environments.

Tidepool Web

Not a full-on bug-fix bonanza, but that doesn't mean we were any less enthusiastic about addressing these issues that popped up.

We resolved an issue that prevented a user's pump settings from displaying because the timestamp for the settings was later than the timestamp for the pump's diabetes data. We think of some pretty creative testing scenarios, but that doesn't mean we think of everything. Glad this one is fixed.
Feature Requirements

A "race condition" is a condition of a program where its behavior depends on relative timing or interleaving of multiple threads or processes—like a series of unlikely events coming together at just the right time to mess something up. In the case of this fix, the race condition is related to a Clinician user attempting to view patient data. Good news: we fixed this one within 4 hours of being notified (not that we were counting or anything).
Feature Requirements

Finally, we added a clarifying note to the new Dexcom Clarity connection feature for our Clinician users to clearly state that this only works for patients with a US Dexcom account.

Tidepool Web

Two major updates to celebrate with this release.

We've added a new feature which empowers our Clinician users to initiate a request to have a patient connect their Dexcom Clarity account. Patients still have to take the final step to link their Dexcom Clarity account to Tidepool, but with the request starting from the Clinic Account Workspace Dashboard, we're hoping this makes everyone's lives a bit easier—with more consistent CGM data flowing in.
Feature Requirements

With this new feature comes some expanded logic to handle different types of scenarios around a patient's use of our Dexcom Clarity connection feature so Clinicians clearly understand what has happened, and what their next action(s) can be.
Feature Requirements

We've resolved a number of issues that came out of our adding Firefox to our official list of supported browsers. It's the attention to detail that matters most.

Tidepool Uploader

Well this is awkward.

This hotfix addresses an issue with Tidepool Uploader version 2.48.0 that prevented some users from updating to the latest version of Tidepool Uploader. All should be well now.

As part of our transition to using Keycloak for user authentication, Tidepool Uploader also received a significant update under the hood. If we did our job properly, you shouldn't notice a thing.

Tidepool Web

This is one of those behind the scenes things that, if all goes well, you shouldn't notice. We've update our authentication protocol to use a service called Keycloak. Again, you should not notice anything different to your day to day use of Tidepool, but a lot went into this update, and this sets the stage for some exciting new developments for 2023.
Primary Feature Requirements

Other fixes that were addressed during internal testing.
