Help Trying to get Guardian Connect to work with Bluestacks

I have an important diabetes device I need to setup the app "Guardian Connect US" but it requires a compatible phone in order to use.
My Motorola 6G is not compatible so I thought about using a virtual machine.

I was able to setup Bluestacks 4 64x with Hyper V with no issue, but when I switched to devices in the advanced tab to phones the app was supposed to be compatible with (Samsung Galaxy 10, 8, 8+) I was getting a "This app is not supported with your device" instead.

Is there a way to get this app to work on bluestacks?
 
This app?

Based on the reviews, that app has terrible compatibility issues in general.

Unfortunately I don't think it will work, that app uses your phones Bluetooth:
IMPORTANT NOTE: This app will only work with Guardian Connect transmitter, which was specifically designed to communicate with your Android device via Bluetooth.

And Bluestacks does not support Bluetooth connections:
BlueStacks does not support the Bluetooth sensors inside your PC. Hence, all apps which require control of Bluetooth or infrared sensors may not work on BlueStacks.

Your Bluetooth device can connect to your PC, but whenever it requires an intervention through the software installed in BlueStacks, it may fail to perform the desired function.
