No she has no clue how to work this, she is learning from me.
It is better to keep striving as we have been doing to get out all of 
the quorks then it will work as it is doing now.

>> Hello Dar,

>> The settings that you are looking for to make sure the app will speak
>> your BGs and trend arrow is in the the menu in the top left hand
>> corner of the main app window. You will double tap on the menu and

>> top right hand corner of the main  or home screen. Alternatively you
>> also can find the check glucose button towards the lower third of the
>> main/home screen. You may also double tap on the button to activate
>> the action. You then can place the top center of the phone over the sensor
> and you will hear a double beep when the reading has been taken.
>> After the double beep you will hear the BG and trend arrow speak out loud.

>> I hope this helps.
