Questions
What does this page check?
Glide's monitor sends a request through the API that the Glide app uses and gets an answer from one of the server's functions. It does not test sign-in, stored data or the reading of CGM servers, so a problem in only one of those parts does not show here.
Up means that the server gave the expected answer within 1 minute. Down means that it failed at least two checks in a row. A check runs every 5 minutes from one location, North Virginia. The history counts each failed check as 5 minutes of downtime, so one failed check shows there as an outage. These checks began on November 8, 2026.
What stops when Glide's server is down?
Glide cannot get new readings, and its alerts and nighttime call can stop, because the server sends them. The app still shows the readings it already has. Your CGM maker's own apps do not use Glide's server.
What does Glide cost?
Glide is free: readings, the chart, followers, alerts, the nighttime call, the report and the Apple Watch app. Glide Premium ($4.99 a month or $39.99 a year, two weeks free) adds photo carb counting and My Lab's food groups.
