Configuring Dashboards

What is a dashboard? Your personal start page in the app – with tiles or a list for quick access to your most frequent actions.

Dashboard Basics

Dashboard tile → Tap         → Record event
               → Long press  → Open event history

You can create as many dashboards as you like and switch between them – similar to iPhone home screens.

Creating a New Dashboard

Navigation

Settings → Dashboards fig.↗ → (Plus)

Selecting Actions

In the list of “available actions” you see:

• All your parameters (individually)
• All your parameter groups
• Food and Drinks (always available)
• Waypoints (always available)

Activate: Tap an entry → it moves to the active list at the top.

Deactivate: Swipe left in the active list → Deactivate. Your configuration is preserved.

💡 Every new dashboard automatically gets a settings switcher tile added. This lets you switch directly between your dashboards from the dashboard itself, without going into Settings manually.

Choosing a Layout

Tap “Layout”:

Adjusting Tile Size

In tile view you can enlarge individual tiles:

1. Tap the grid icon to the left of the drag icon on a tile
2. Select the desired size (1×1, 2×1, 2×2, …)
3. The mini-dashboard in the preview shows the effect immediately

Example: 4-tile grid
  [ Headache ][ Fatigue ][ Energy ][ Mood ]
  [    Blood Pressure (2×1)       ][ Pulse ][ Weight ]

Adjusting Tile Color

Tap a tile in the Dashboard Editor fig.↗ to open the editor. The upper area shows a live preview of the tile and the option to change the icon.

Every parameter and group tile can be individually colored fig.↗ → “Appearance” → “Palette”.

A sheet opens with three sections:

1. Choose palette — horizontally scrollable mini-preview of all available palettes. The chosen palette determines which colors are available in the next sections. The current app palette is pre-selected.

2. Background color — 30 fields from the chosen palette. Tapping applies the color immediately to the tile preview.

3. Symbol/text color — 5 base colors (black → white). There’s also an auto-contrast button: it automatically selects black or white, whichever is more readable on the chosen background.

💡 Besides the palette sheet there are also direct color pickers for background and symbol color – for any colors not contained in a palette.

Understanding the Capacity Display

The app calculates how many tiles fit on screen:

Capacity: 17 of 18 available, but 2 tiles clipped

• Green: All active tiles fit
• Orange triangle on a tile: this tile will be clipped
• Solution: Reorder tiles in the active list

Sorting tiles: Long-press the drag icon (3 lines on the right) → drag up or down.

Exporting and Importing Tiles

You can export the active tiles of a dashboard as a template and share it with other devices or the community.

Exporting Tiles

Settings → Dashboards → select dashboard → Import/Export symbol (arrows, top right) → “Export active tiles”

The app creates a .ioom file with all active tiles including their parameters and groups. You can share it directly via AirDrop, Mail or iCloud.

Sharing Tiles to the Community Library

In the same export menu there’s also “Share to Community Library”. A two-step sheet opens: first you select a single tile from your list (parameter or group tiles), then you enter a description and upload it. The tile then appears in the template library where other users can download it.

Importing Tiles

Settings → Dashboards → select dashboard → Import/Export symbol → “Import”

Or: tap a tile template in the template library → “Download”

Selective Import

After opening a tile template you see a selection dialog with a checkbox list of all included content:

☑  Tile "Migraine"          → will be added to the dashboard
  ☑  Parameter: Intensity   → will be created
  ☑  Parameter: Duration
☑  Tile "Sleep group"
  ☑  Group: Sleep
    ☑  Sleep onset
    ☑  Sleep quality
☑  Tile "Meal"               → special tile, no sub-level

You can deselect at every level: - Deselect tile → tile not added, but content (parameter/group) can still be imported - Deselect group → individual group parameters still selectable (created as standalone parameters) - Deselect parameter → only this parameter is not imported

Select all / Deselect all via the quick-select at the top of the list.

Using Multiple Dashboards Effectively

Switching Between Dashboards

Swipe left or right on the dashboard to switch between your dashboards.

Mini-Preview Tile

You can place a special mini-preview tile on a dashboard that shows a scaled-down preview of another dashboard – useful for example to always keep the medication stock in view while tracking on another dashboard. Tapping the tile navigates directly to that dashboard.

Alarm Overview Tile

The alarm overview tile shows the status of all configured alarm slots at a glance:

• Number of active alarms relative to the total (e.g. 3/5)
• Next trigger – time of the next ringing alarm
• If no alarms are configured: hint “No alarms configured”

Tap the tile → detail view “Alarms” opens with all slots, their time, recurrence pattern (daily / weekdays) and status (active / disabled / next trigger).

💡 The tile captures all alarm slots – both tile reminders and medication alarms. Especially useful if you want to keep alarms from different areas in one central view.

Dashboard for Different Devices

Each screen resolution requires its own configuration. When switching from iPhone to iPad (or Mac), a new dashboard must be created.

If You Get Lost in the App

Close the app completely (double-tap Home or swipe up → swipe away the app) and restart it. You always land on your dashboard.
