If the Bluetooth connection between your t:slim X2 insulin pump and the t:connect mobile app is lost, the mobile app will not display current insulin pump information and cannot be used to request a bolus. To help maintain the wireless connection between the two devices, it is recommended that your smartphone stays within 20 feet of your t:slim X2 insulin pump.
Important: If there are connection issues with your insulin pump and t:connect mobile app, ALWAYS use the information on your pump to make diabetes therapy decisions.
