Important User Information Regarding Tandem Mobile Apps

The information on your Tandem mobile app display may not be identical to the current status of your pump. Wireless uploads from your Tandem mobile app to Tandem Source require a compatible phone and an internet or wireless data connection. Uploads to Tandem Source do not take place in real time and should not be relied upon by healthcare providers or caregivers for remote patient monitoring. Users should always follow the advice of their healthcare professional and seek medical attention when appropriate. Standard carrier data rates may apply.

This user guide is applicable above and beyond any recommendations made by the manufacturer of the mobile device on which your Tandem mobile app is installed. Feature sets available within the app may depend on your Tandem pump software version and the compatible smartphone's model and operating system. See your Tandem pump user guide for more information.

For an up-to-date list of supported smartphones, please visit tandemdiabetes.com/compatibility, or tap Help on the Settings screen, then tap App Guide.

/!\ Precautions

NEVER connect your pump to a public computer. Always use a Trusted Computer.

Use of security features on your Trusted Computer is important. These security features include:

  • The use of a password or PIN to unlock the Trusted Computer.
  • Making sure that your Trusted Computer has current security software.
  • Keeping your software updated when prompted by your Trusted Computer.
  • Some web pages can be unsafe and can affect your Trusted Computer just by visiting them. You should minimize visits to unknown websites and look for 'https' in the browser address or for the padlock symbol next to the URL when visiting websites.
  • You can check system requirements at tandemdiabetes.com/tandem-source-system-requirements. You can verify the tandemdiabetes.com certificate in the browser by clicking the padlock symbol next to the URL.

Exercise caution whenever you connect your pump to a Trusted Computer and remain in the presence of the pump at all times while your pump is connected to a Trusted Computer.

Connecting the pump to a Trusted Computer that is attached to other equipment could result in previously unidentified risks to the patient, operator, or a third-party. The user should identify, analyze, evaluate, and control these risks.

Subsequent changes to a Trusted Computer could introduce new risks and require additional analysis. These changes can include but are not limited to changing the configuration of the Trusted Computer, connecting additional items to the Trusted Computer, disconnecting items from the Trusted Computer, and updating or upgrading equipment connected to the Trusted Computer.
