## What is MiniMed Go?

The MiniMed Go™ system helps people manage diabetes.  It is a single-app solution that can integrate glucose measurements captured from a compatible continuous glucose monitor (CGM) with data on insulin doses delivered by the InPen™ smart insulin pen.  

The app can be used with InPen, Instinct sensor made by Abbott, or Simplera™ sensor CGMs, and with Apple Watch™ to view glucose readings and receive alerts. When connected to a CGM, the app supports display of Sensor Glucose (SG) values and trend arrows. When connected to the InPen smart insulin pen, the app supports automatic logging insulin doses administered by InPen, tracking of active insulin, and a dose calculator. The app also supports alerts or reminders for low glucose, high glucose, and insulin doses. 

The MiniMed Go app should only be used with supported mobile devices and operating systems. In order to access the list of the supported mobile devices and operating systems, go to https://www.medtronicdiabetes.com/customer-support/app-support/device-compatibility.    

IMPORTANT NOTE: The MiniMed Go app is intended for use with the InPen smart insulin pen and compatible continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) systems and compatible rapid-acting insulins (NovoRapid, Fiasp, or Humalog) to aid in diabetes management through multiple daily injections.  

Instinct sensor with InPen smart insulin pen is indicated for ages 7 and up, or for ages 2-6 years under the supervision of an adult caregiver. Simplera sensor with InPen smart insulin pen is approved for ages 18 years and older. Adequate sight and hearing, compatible mobile device and operating system, pairing and connectivity, proper settings, accurate manual logging of insulin doses administered by means other than InPen, and occasional blood glucose meter (BGM) readings are all required for proper functioning of the system.  

Treatment decisions are to be made in consultation with a healthcare professional and on the basis of a combination of glucose readings, trend arrows, glucose target, active alerts, and recent events (such as insulin doses, exercise, meals, and medications).  

Failure to observe these and other details as found in the user guides can result in incorrect dosing, missed alerts and notifications, and ultimately hypoglycemia or hyperglycemia, with serious injury or death possible. For complete details, consult the appropriate system and component user guides at https://www.medtronicdiabetes.com/support/download-library/user-guides, taking care to select the correct country.

### 1/5 — InPen App is Much Better

*2026-08-01*

This app is more focused for users of the company's cgm, which I do not have.  I have only used their InPen for going in 4 years. The entire opening screen is useless to me, there's just one tiny line showing insulin on board and if I want to see how much i've dosed through the day I have to click through two extra screens to get there. If taking away the InPen app is your way of trying to force people to use you CGM, it won't work for me. I'm even more convinced I need to move to EverSense and a pump because this forced MiniMed Go app has made managing my care more difficult,

### 1/5 — Seriously?

*2026-07-22*

I can’t even get thru the initial set-up for the app because apparently you have to use one of their CGM sensors? It doesn’t give me any other option to advance to the next set-up step unless I choose a CGM product…. I don’t use ANY CGM sensors. I ONLY use the Inpen. If yall actually phase out the Inpen app completely, you will seriously put a lot of diabetics at risk.

**Developer response:** We're sorry to hear about your experience. Our team would like to learn more and help resolve the issue. Please contact 24-Hour Technical Support at 1-800-646-4633, option 1 so we can assist you.

### 1/5 — Not for InPen stand alone

*2026-07-21*

I use an InPen with the InPen app for automatically logging my insulin. I was notified that the InPen app will be going away and replaced by the MiniMed Go app. So I thought I’d check out the new app today. The MiniMed Go app cannot be used as a standalone InPen logging app. It requires an Abbott CGM and InPen to be used together only to set up an InPen in the app. Will there be a new standalone app for InPen users for logging doses and calculating meal doses or an option to add an InPen only? If not, that’s disappointing.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback. We are continuously working to improve the MiniMed Go app and release updates to enhance performance and functionality. If you are experiencing issues, please contact 24-Hour Technical Support at 1-800-646-4633, option 1 so we can assist.

### 5/5 — MiniMed Go App

*2026-06-25*

Nice job on the MiniMed Go App.  I would like to see the running time of the active insulin like it does with the Inpen app. You have to click on the doses and do the math.  It would be nice to see how long from the time the dose was administered.  Maybe create a daily insulin dosage summary to look at a glance.  Just a thought.  Thank you.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback. We're glad to hear that you're having a positive experience with the MiniMed Go app.
