This article assumes you have:
- A Tidepool account — You can create one at tidepool.org/signup.
- Blood glucose meter (BGM) data uploaded to a Tidepool account.
The BG Log view is an at-a-glance summary of blood glucose meter data, similar to a traditional handwritten logbook.
Data is represented by colored dots based on the target glucose values set for the Tidepool Web account.
You can toggle the Values checkbox in the lower right to see the numerical values of each blood glucose result or hover over a specific reading to get more information about that reading including the precise timestamp for that reading and its source.
Double clicking on a specific reading will take you to the corresponding Daily view that includes that reading so you can see the rest of the data from that day.
