About this app

Only use this app if you have the Dexcom G6 CGM System.

Always know your glucose number and where it’s heading with the Dexcom G6 Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) System – approved for diabetes treatment decisions with zero fingersticks* and no calibration.

*If your glucose alerts and readings from the G6 do not match symptoms or expectations, use a blood glucose meter to make diabetes treatment decisions.

With Dexcom G6, always know your glucose number with just a quick glance at your compatible smartphone or smartwatch. For a list of compatible devices visit www.dexcom.com/compatibility. Dexcom G6 provides real-time glucose readings as frequently as every five minutes. Dexcom G6 is approved for children age 2 and older.

The Dexcom G6 System provides personalized trend alerts right on your smart device and lets you see when your glucose levels are going too low, or too high, so you can better manage your diabetes. The Alert Schedule feature lets you schedule and customize a second set of alerts. Custom alert sounds are available, including a Vibrate-Only option on the phone for glucose alerts. The only exception is the Urgent Low Alarm, which you can’t turn off.

The Always Sound setting allows you to receive certain Dexcom CGM Alerts even if your phone sound is off, set to vibrate, or in Do Not Disturb mode. This will allow you to silence calls or texts but still receive audible CGM Alerts, including Low and High Glucose alert, Urgent Low Soon Alert, Urgent Low Alarm, and Rise and Fall Rate alerts. Always Sound is on by default. A Home screen icon shows you if your Alerts will sound or not. For safety, the Urgent Low Alarm and these alerts can’t be silenced: Transmitter Failed, Sensor Failed, and App Stopped.

In addition to the accurate performance provided by the Dexcom Sensor, you’ll receive other valuable features:

• Share your glucose data with your followers who can monitor your glucose data and trends on their compatible smart device with the Dexcom Follow app. Share and Follow functions require an internet connection.

• Quick Glance allows you to view your glucose data on the lock screen of your smart device
• A Dexcom Clarity link on the landscape trend graph lets you easily transition to the Clarity App to view more information on your glucose trends

Wear OS Integration

• Activate the Dexcom G6 watch face to quickly access your glucose information and trend graph right from your wrist

I have tried it for a few days so far and it works well for me..... I like the fact that I can see the last 1h, 3h, 6h, 12h and 24h. I also like thst I can share my sugar levels with.my partner. On the other hand I miss adding some comments during the day if special events happens, food, stress... It would also be good if this app could have a widget.

Issues plague this app. The app freezes up when you open it, sometimes you have to close and re-open the app multiple times to make it load. The alerts system is buggy - you'll set an alarm to make a sound and it'll vibrate only. Or, you'll turn an alarm off and it'll still make noise. The master toggle to 'turn all alarms off' doesn't work. But worst of all is the insane battery drain it has, it uses 10h battery life in a few hours, and putting the phone in power saving mode breaks everything.

Good app but could be better. My main complaint is the alert every 5 mins when I'm out of range. I have this to repeat "never" but every 5 mins I get the alert again, it is going to drive me to turn it off, which is against the point. Secondly the app sounds have the ability to put in notes. Putting in carbs and insulin is good, but it needs notes, what carbs, why did I change my insulin amount? How am I going to remember in 4 months without this ability.
