Hi Less. You choose the "profile" tab at the bottom of the screen. Then
start swiping from the top and you'll see app settings, glucose and
eventually you'll find "siri shortcut". Double tap on that and you will find
either on or off, then an edit box where you can enter the text of the
phrase you want to use. I used to use "what's my blood sugar". As of last
night, I use "my reading." Hope this helps.

Hi everyone.
Okay, I did the update yesterday, coming from 16.3. The only thing that
broke was the Siri shortcut. It kept saying there was a missing app. Tech
support told me that I had to uninstall the app, reinstall it and then pick
a new name for the shortcut. It was late and I was tired, so I complied.
What a royal pain in the you know what. The app was easy to deal with,
except for the stupid tutorial. Okay, it's fine if you need it. But each
screen I had to read the text, hit done, get taken right back to where I
was, finally move on after several tries, and lost count of the screens.
<grin> But I got it done. Just for fun, I tried the siri shortcut and got
the same results. So I changed my language and all was fine again. Then I
started thinking, did I really have to uninstall the app or could I have
simply changed the name of the shortcut? So if this happens to any of you,
give that challenge a try first. <grin> The tech person said they see this a
lot. I admit I was glad I hadn't taken out the trash and could still get to
the sensor applicator for the code. Sheesh!
