[Diabetes-Talk] Not working

[d m gina]

I have folks in town who are interested in this, I just share it is out 
there, and how to get to the site if they wish to look at it.
I share how it was harder for me to get started but it doesn't mean it 
will be the same for them.

>>> Hello Dar,

>>> flick right to the settings option and then the settings will open in
>>> a new window and you will look for the text to speech option and
>>> double tap on the on/off toggle. This should turn the speech option
>>> on. You then will need to find either the unlabeled scan button in
>>> the 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.
