NightKnight Glucose Tracker
Manage Diabetes Beautifully
Free · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
NightKnight is a fast, private, beautifully clear way to follow continuous glucose
monitoring (CGM) data from your own server. It connects to a NightKnight or
Nightscout-compatible deployment you control — so your glucose history stays yours,
never sold and never mined for ads.
A GLANCEABLE DASHBOARD
• Your current glucose in big, colour-coded type with a live trend arrow and a
last-hour sparkline.
• A clean 24-hour chart with your target band, high/low lines, and points coloured
by range. Drag across it to scrub any reading.
• Trailing summary you can flip between 24h, 7, 14, 30 and 90 days: updated GMI
(uGMI), average glucose, Time in Range and variability (CV), with a stacked
time-in-range bar.
ANALYSIS THAT ACTUALLY EXPLAINS ITSELF
• Glycemia Risk Index (GRI) with its hypo/hyper breakdown and risk zone.
• Ambulatory Glucose Profile (AGP): every day overlaid into one 24-hour picture with
median and percentile bands.
• Time-of-day patterns — overnight, morning, afternoon, evening — so you can see when
things drift.
• Hypo/hyper episode detection with a recent-events feed, plus advanced variability
(J-Index, MAGE, CONGA, SD).
• Every metric has a plain-language "?" explainer with a link to the clinical source.
BOTH UNITS, FIRST-CLASS
mg/dL and mmol/L are both fully supported. Switch any time; every chart, metric and
alarm follows instantly.
ON-DEVICE ALARMS
Optional high, low and rapid-drop alerts that run on your phone. Simple on/off, no
accounts, nothing to configure in the cloud.
APPLE WATCH & WIDGETS
A glanceable Watch app and complication, plus Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets,
keep your latest number and trend a wrist-flick away.
APPLE HEALTH
Optionally read glucose from Apple Health, or write your readings back to it — you
choose, and you can turn it off any time.
PRIVATE & SECURE BY DESIGN
• Talks only to the server you point it at — your NightKnight or Nightscout instance.
• Credentials are sent in headers, never in the URL.
• Default deployment works behind Cloudflare Access with a service token.
• No third-party analytics, no advertising SDKs, no account with us.
WHAT YOU NEED
NightKnight is a follower/viewer app. You need a NightKnight or Nightscout-compatible
server with your CGM data. See github page for details. Add your server URL and device token in Settings and you're in.
NOT A MEDICAL DEVICE
NightKnight is for information and personal insight only. It is not a medical device
and must not be used as the sole basis for any treatment decision. Always confirm with
your CGM/meter and follow your healthcare provider's guidance.
