I think the usual recommendation is before meals, two hours after meals and before going to bed. So that was 7 times a day for me. The big problem with testing more times is that you are literally damaging your fingers and hoping that they

I appreciate this is a beta, but it is hard to know what already works and what is planned. Also, does not seem to allow uploading files over 100mb, which leads me to ask what exactly is the 200MB , 10 GB or 100Gb Transfer limit on the var
