## Abstract

Techniques for enhancing sharing of a user's analyte data and techniques for enhancing social support provided to users for managing users' health are disclosed.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A computer-implemented method performed by a first display device for communicating analyte data, the computer-implemented method comprising:
obtaining analyte data from an analyte monitoring device;
detecting that the first display device has lost connectivity with a server computing system; and
in response to detecting that the first display device has lost connectivity with the server computing system:
automatically initiating a scan for one or more display devices;
upon detecting, based on the scan, a second display device of the one or more display devices that is in proximity to the first display device, establishing a communication link with the second display device; and
transmitting the analyte data to the second display device.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The computer-implemented method of claim 1, wherein detecting that the first display device has lost connectivity with the server computing system comprises determining that a predefined amount of time has elapsed since receiving a message from the server computing system.

### Claim 3 (depends on 1)

The computer-implemented method of claim 1, wherein detecting that the first display device has lost connectivity with the server computing system comprises determining that the first display device has lost at least one of WiFi connectivity or cellular connectivity with the server computing system.

### Claim 4 (depends on 1)

The computer-implemented method of claim 1, wherein the communication link is a Bluetooth communication link.

### Claim 5 (depends on 1)

The computer-implemented method of claim 1, wherein the one or more display devices are indicated on a whitelist associated with the first display device.

### Claim 6 (depends on 1)

The computer-implemented method of claim 1, further comprising presenting a list of the one or more display devices on a user interface of the first display device.

### Claim 7 (depends on 6)

The computer-implemented method of claim 6, wherein the one or more display devices are not associated with a whitelist associated with the first display device.

### Claim 8 (depends on 6)

The computer-implemented method of claim 6, further comprising receiving an indication of the second display device that has been selected from the list of the one or more display devices presented on the user interface of the first display device.

### Claim 9

A computer-implemented method comprising:
receiving an indication that a display device associated with a user has relinquished management of transmission of analyte data from the display device; and
in response to receiving the indication, managing transmission of analyte data from the display device for a predetermined amount of time.

### Claim 10 (depends on 9)

The computer-implemented method of claim 9, further comprising returning management of the transmission of analyte data from the display device to the display device after the predetermined amount of time has elapsed.

### Claim 11 (depends on 9)

The computer-implemented method of claim 9, wherein the indication comprises a message indicating that the user has scanned a quick response (QR) code within an environment.

### Claim 12 (depends on 9)

The computer-implemented method of claim 9, wherein managing transmission of analyte data comprises triggering the display device to transmit analyte data upon occurrence of a predetermined condition.

### Claim 13 (depends on 12)

The computer-implemented method of claim 12, further comprising, after receiving the analyte data from the display device, forwarding the analyte data to another display device.

### Claim 14 (depends on 12)

The computer-implemented method of claim 12, further comprising, after receiving the analyte data from the display device, transmitting at least one message to the display device based on an analysis of the analyte data.

### Claim 15

A first display device comprising:
at least one processor; and
a memory storing executable instructions, which when executed by the at least one processor, perform an operation comprising:
obtaining analyte data from an analyte monitoring device;
detecting that the first display device has lost connectivity with a server computing system; and
in response to detecting that the first display device has lost connectivity with the server computing system:
automatically initiating a scan for one or more display devices;
upon detecting, based on the scan, a second display device of the one or more display devices that is in proximity to the first display device, establishing a communication link with the second display device; and
transmitting the analyte data to the second display device.

### Claim 16 (depends on 15)

The first display device of claim 15, wherein detecting that the first display device has lost connectivity with the server computing system comprises determining that a predefined amount of time has elapsed since receiving a message from the server computing system.

### Claim 17 (depends on 15)

The first display device of claim 15, wherein detecting that the first display device has lost connectivity with the server computing system comprises determining that the first display device has lost at least one of WiFi connectivity or cellular connectivity with the server computing system.

### Claim 18 (depends on 15)

The first display device of claim 15, wherein the one or more display devices are indicated on a whitelist associated with the first display device.

### Claim 19 (depends on 15)

The first display device of claim 15, further comprising presenting a list of the one or more display devices on a user interface of the first display device.

### Claim 20 (depends on 19)

The first display device of claim 19, further comprising receiving an indication of the second display device that has been selected from the list of the one or more display devices presented on the user interface of the first display device.
