If you use the time-in-range metric, how often would you estimate you typically look at your time-in-range reports?

I almost said “never,” but answered “other.” I notice my Time in Range on my telephone, and I’ve seen it once on my T-connect. But, I’ve never paid a lot of attention to it. I have noticed that my time-in-range on my phone is different every day. Some days in the 70% range, and some in the 90%’s.
I know it’s an important number, but I just haven’t taken the time to give it a lot of consideration.
I said every day because what I do is set a high goal (>90%) for in range that I have to really work to achieve. I use Dexcom Clarity noftications and get a notification each day I make that goal. I also look over a weekly summary. I have found thinking about TIR makes me pay a lot more attention to reducing post meal elevations. Its a game a play with myself but it has helped me figure out what worls well and what does not.
I look at time in range report when the reminder is sent
I have to answer every day since I get Dexcom reports daily. It confirms for me that Iām going on n the right direction. Before I started Tandem CIQ, I was lucky to ever get up to 70% in range, whereas now, Iām routinely in the 90s.
Although I keep track on Tidepool, my own daily records that I have kept for years, are much more helpful for me—mine are precise and I can instantly check back in detail for a day or a month to see ranges over a day…or a month. It may “sound” time consuming but it’s only a couple of minutes a day…jotting down numbers.
My phone updates me every day.
Since I’ve been using t-connect on my phone I find myself looking at TIR on that app frequently.
I was going to comment the same thing. I never really looked at it but now that the t:slim allows ābolus by phoneā and the app you use to do so shows it, I see time-in-range every day.
I’m still getting used to having it. Just switched to Tandem/Dexcom about 6 weeks ago!
A notification on my watch/iPhone gives daily reports. I donāt pay much attention. But notice if a super good or bad percent shows up. Iām still trusting a1c above all else.
I check clarity 2day TIR. It is good reinforcement. Diabetes for me is day by day.
I get a weekly email from DexCom Clarity that reviews the previous week.
It is just one of the many things I can look at with my Libre. I also find the ‘daily patterns’ view useful. ( It shows a time course line that is averaged for the the week, so it becomes obvious if certain highs or lows are becoming habitual. )
Actually, I love numbers and stats.
I answered too quickly. In reality I check TIR daily on my phone. It’s very helpful to see an updated percentage number instead of an A1c average. Life with T1 is rarely “average”.
With my tandem pump the last 24 hours timing range appears right in the T connect app which I use many times a day to check pump status and take a bolus. So as a result I see it very frequently. As far as the 30 day or 90 day timing range I go to the Dexcom Clarity app to view this a few times a month.
If you get the updated application where you can bolus from your smartphone you can see your TIR right on the Home Screen. I highly recommend it. Super helpful in showing when your changes start and stop.
I look at Time in Range (TIR) every day. It is the most accurate and important measure to determine how much control you have over T1D.
Every time I pick up my Smart phone and check my Dex and T-connect apps, along with every time I use my pump. I’m starting to use my Pump T-connect app more and more every day.
Each day I start off at 100% for most of the day. Around dinner or early dinner it hits between 80-95%. Sometimes a low, sometimes a missed bolus, always my error. Today was a bad day so I am a bit tired of not being perfect.
If bolusing from my phone, time in range is displayed on the first screen.
Easy to find in three apps I use. Best picture of his things are doing.
I find it easy to view my TIR in my t:connect mobile app on my phone.
I chose once every couple of months. That is when I look at my reports online to see a greater view of patterns.
This not when I look at my phone: every time I check my BG or deliver a bolus which shows my time in range, nor when I see my weekly reports from Dexcom.
I check it several times daily.
