Using the MiniMed™ Mobile app
Device: MiniMed™ 770G insulin pump
The app may show information differently depending on the compatible mobile device and operating system you use.
Home Screen
The Home screen shows an overview of data received from the pump. The Home screen is divided into two main areas: the status area and the graph. There is also a Menu button in the top left corner of the Home screen.
The display may vary based on your compatible mobile device and insulin pump model.
If the MiniMed™ Mobile app has not been continuously running in the background on your mobile device, it may take a few seconds for information to appear when you open the app.
Status Area
The status area shows the most current data that the pump has sent to the MiniMed™ Mobile app and status messages that may require your attention.
It shows your current sensor glucose (SG) value, trend arrows, active insulin, status icons, and basal rate (when in Manual Mode).
The current data and status messages also appear on the Lock screen of your compatible mobile device.
Active Insulin
The Active Insulin is shown in the Status area. Active insulin is bolus insulin that has been delivered by the pump and is still working to lower your BG levels.
Sensor Glucose (SG) Value
If you use CGM, the status area shows the most recent SG value received from the insulin pump. If the sensor is turned off on the pump, the MiniMed™ Mobile app shows the current active insulin amount where the SG value is usually shown.
Trend Arrows
If you use CGM and the SG value is rising or falling, one, two, or three arrows appear on the Home screen. The more arrows that are shown, the faster the SG value is rising or falling.
Status Icons on Home Screen
Icons may appear in the status area to inform you about the status of the MiniMed™ Mobile app or the paired pump. You can tap on any status icon to see a message bubble that shows what the icon means.
To close the message bubble, tap on your screen anywhere other than the message bubble.
Status Messages
Status messages are shown in the status area. Most status messages are messages from the pump.
Other messages refer specifically to the status of the app itself.
Banners
The banners shown in the status area correspond with the banners shown on your pump.
Time in Range
If you use CGM, you can access the Time in range graph by swiping left in the Status area on the Home screen.
The Time in range graph shows the percentage of time you spent in and out of a set sensor glucose (SG) range. This SG range is preset in the MiniMed™ Mobile app and cannot be changed. The preset sensor glucose (SG) range is 70 to 180 mg/dL.
- The orange section shows the percent of time that you spent above 180 mg/dL during the past 24 hours.
- The green section shows the percent of time that you spent between 70 and 180 mg/dL during the past 24 hours.
- The red section shows the percent of time that you spent below 70 mg/dL during the past 24 hours.
- Your average sensor glucose (SG) reading is shown at the bottom of the screen.
- A “Not enough data” message is shown if there is no sensor data for the past 24 hours.
Swipe right to exit the Time in Range screen.
Graph
The graph shows glucose values and event markers based on the data the app receives from the paired pump.
To navigate the graph:
- Swipe left or right over the graph to navigate through past and current data.
- Stretch and pinch to zoom in and out from the 1-hour view to a 24-hour view.
- Double-tap the graph to cycle through the various graph zoom levels (24 hr, 12 hr, 6 hr, 3 hr).
- Tap
to show your BG reading at that time. - Tap
to show your BG reading at that time. This BG reading was not sent for sensor calibration. - Tap
to show the carb count for the meal you entered. - Tap
to show the amount of bolus insulin delivered and which type of bolus was used. - Tap anywhere on the screen to close the event details.

Notifications
The MiniMed™ Mobile app lets you receive alarms, alerts, reminders, and messages from your pump on your compatible mobile device.
All notifications from the pump appear at the top of the Home screen. The same notification title and text appear in the app and on your compatible MiniMed™ insulin pump screen.
Notifications have a different background color depending on the type:
- Alarm – Red
- Alert – Yellow
- Message – Blue
- Reminder – Gray
Do not rely solely on the notifications from the MiniMed™ Mobile app. Notifications on your compatible mobile device and notifications sent to care partners may not occur as expected. Notifications may not always be noticeable on the app. Always rely on your pump for the notifications.
Always clear notifications on your pump. Dismissing a notification in the app does not clear it on the pump. It is important that you promptly respond to all notifications that appear on your pump. When you respond to a notification, there may be times when another notification appears. Always be sure to address all notifications you receive.
