Follow the steps below to connect your Sibionics GS3 CGM sensor to the Vively app and start seeing your glucose data.
Before you begin
Before connecting your Sibionics GS3 sensor to Vively, please make sure you have:
Downloaded the Sibionics app in the Apple App Store or Andriod Store on Google Play
Created and logged into your Sibionics app account
Downloaded the Vively app in the Apple App Store or Andriod Store on Google Play
Created and logged into your Vively app account
Both apps and accounts are required for your GS3 sensor to activate and for data to flow through to Vively.
1️⃣ Apply and activate your GS3 sensor
Before connecting to Vively, make sure your GS3 sensor is properly set up.
Apply the GS3 sensor to the back of your upper arm, following the instructions provided
Open the Sibionics app and activate the sensor
Allow the 60-minute warm-up period to complete
During the warm-up period, glucose readings won’t appear. This is normal.
2️⃣ Confirm readings are visible in the Sibionics app
Before connecting to Vively:
Open the Sibionics app
Check that glucose readings are appearing
If readings are not visible in the Sibionics app, they won’t appear in Vively yet.
Please wait until readings are showing before continuing.
3️⃣ Connect your GS3 sensor to the Vively app
Once your sensor is active:
Open the Vively app
Go to the Track page
Tap “Set up your sensor”
Follow the on-screen steps to connect your GS3 sensor
Once connected, your glucose data will begin syncing into Vively automatically.
4️⃣ Check Bluetooth and phone settings
GS3 sends glucose data automatically via Bluetooth. Please ensure:
Bluetooth is turned on
Your phone is within 10 metres of the sensor
Both the Sibionics app and Vively app are allowed to run in the background
If data stops updating temporarily
If the Sibionics app loses its Bluetooth connection to the sensor, glucose data may stop flowing through to the Vively app.
In most cases, this is easy to resolve:
Simply open the Sibionics app
This re-establishes the Bluetooth connection
Data will then resume syncing into Vively automatically
No re-setup is required.
5️⃣ Refresh the Vively app
If you’ve just connected your sensor and don’t see data immediately:
Go to the Track page in the Vively app
Pull down on the screen to refresh
Wait a few minutes and check again
Small delays can occur shortly after first connection.
6️⃣ Still not seeing data?
If you’ve completed all the steps above and your data still isn’t appearing:
Please email contact@vively.com.au and include:
Confirmation that you’re using Sibionics GS3
When the sensor was applied
A screenshot showing readings in the Sibionics app
A screenshot of the Track page in the Vively app
This helps us quickly identify where the connection may be breaking down.
Important notes
GS3 does not require scanning at any stage
Once connected, glucose data syncs automatically via Bluetooth
In summary
Apply and activate your GS3 sensor
Wait for the 60-minute warm-up
Confirm readings appear in the Sibionics app
Connect your sensor via the Vively app
Keep Bluetooth enabled and refresh if needed
