Medtronic MiniMed recalls Guardian iOS and Android apps (v1.3.0) due to potential failure to upload glucose data, risking hypoglycemia or hyperglycemia. Affected users should check app version.
An app, part of a continuous glucose monitoring system, for use with smartphone devices may automatically log out from CareLink, then the app is not able to upload data. When logged out, linked care partners will not receive SMS notifications (could result in hypoglycemia or hyperglycemia), and sensor glucose values will also not be sent to the InPen app.
Medtronic MiniMed is recalling its Guardian iOS and Android apps (version 1.3.0) because they may stop sending glucose data to your phone or other devices. This could lead to missing critical health information, increasing the risk of dangerous blood sugar levels.
The app may automatically log out from CareLink, preventing glucose data from being sent to your phone or other connected devices. Without this data, linked care partners won't get SMS alerts, and your blood sugar levels won't be monitored properly, potentially causing dangerous highs or lows.
People using the Guardian 4 system with the Guardian iOS app (MMT-8200) or Android app (MMT-8201) version 1.3.0. Those with diabetes who rely on continuous glucose monitoring are most at risk.
