Take the guesswork out of dosing

The app uses your glucose levels and a carbohydrate estimate to recommend the dose that’s right for you. It even considers the amount of insulin that’s still working in your body, to help you avoid lows.

Dose reminders

Avoid missed insulin doses

The InPen app can help you avoid missed insulin doses. It allows you to set reminders to take insulin at common meal times.

See how

Estimate carbs or choose a fixed dose

The InPen app can help you estimate carbs based on your meal size. There’s also a fixed dose option that allows you to choose the same carb amount for a specific meal each day.

Can I pair more than one InPen to the app?

Yes, you can pair as many InPens as you need to the app. This enables the flexibility for you to have one InPen at home and another at work or school.

Note: Make sure your paired device is within range of your InPen when you dose. Your InPen app will automatically sync doses from all paired InPen(s) when within range.

What is active insulin and how is it shown in the app?

Active Insulin, also known as insulin-on-board (IOB), is an estimate of how much insulin from recent doses is still active in your body. For example, if you take a 5 unit dose, there will initially be a full 5.0 units in your body. Over several hours this will decrease as your body uses the insulin. The InPen app shows active insulin from rapid-acting and mealtime insulin only, not long-acting or basal insulin.

How is active insulin shown in the app?

Active insulin is shown on the homescreen below the calculate dose button. This number shows your total active insulin based on all rapid-acting and mealtime doses from the past eight hours.

Is the i-Port Advance^™ injection port compatible with the InPen?

Yes, the i-Port Advance^™ injection port is compatible with the InPen. Needles used with the i-Port Advance^™ injection port need to be 5-8mm (3/16-5/16”) in length and 32-28 gauge.

Is the InPen integration with the Guardian^™ Connect system compatible with both iOS and Android^™ devices?

Yes, the integration is compatible with both iOS and Android^™ devices, however you should check compatibility for both the Guardian^™ Connect system and the InPen app prior to ordering.
