I’m using the XDrip plus app. Started using it about 6 weeks ago and at least twice now my sensor has stopped before the 10 day auto shut-off period. Is there a setting I’m missing.

Sorry, perhaps the wrong forum for this question but any suggestions would be great!

Does it show sensor error or sensor stopped in the event log ?

Check if Bluetooth connection to transmitter is active.

How do you start sensor ? With xDrip or Receiver?

xDrip system status will show trans id, trans days, and sensor days, bluetooth status. Does that look right?

On right side 3-dot menu, check Event log.
