since a lot of functionality at my job that doesn't require me to physically be in the office can be done on a web browser I use my tablet as a work computer if the office is occupied. before this year I used my smartwatch as a phone monitor because even vibrating I can't feel my phone ringing in my pocket or vibrate for text messages. and it was literally vitally important that I be available 24/7. these days I no longer need to be constantly available but I now have to monitor my glucose levels so I found a watchface and corresponding phone app to send that information to my phone.
tablets and watches still have a place for a lot of people.
I was also interested in glucose monitoring, but the Samsung watch7 only gives an estimate.
The technology is still way behind.
my workaround for glucose watch monitoring is an android app called gluroo. if you're using an app that sends your glucose data to a server gluroo pulls that data from the server and displays it on your watch as a specific watchface so the info that's displayed is as accurate as the sensor you're currently using. the downside is that gluroo can't pull directly from whatever app you happen to be using, so going to an area with no data service at all will show no stats even though your phone is right there.
