Doesn't work

App simply doesn't work. If you want to follow somebody's blood sugar level, make sure they use some other device and not Dexcom.
You would think they care more, they're just a bunch of idiots.

Widget Issues

Widget no longer displays sharer name or number. Please fix.

Reliable

The app works well for us to be able to keep up with family member’s BG. Recently, the widget stopped providing readings on my phone screen. Additionally, an upgrade to the watch version to allow for readings on the watch face would be great.

FAQ

What does the Dexcom Follow app do?

The Dexcom Follow app allows you to remotely view and follow the glucose levels, trends, and data of loved ones who are sharing information from their Dexcom Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) app. It helps you stay informed about their glucose activity, especially when they are not with you.

How do I connect to a loved one's glucose data?

To connect, you must first install the Dexcom Follow app. Your loved one, the 'Sharer,' will then need to send you an invitation to connect after you have installed the app. Once accepted, you will be able to view their glucose information.

Can I use this app for treatment decisions?

No, you should not use Dexcom Follow for treatment decisions, such as insulin dosing. The Sharer should always follow the instructions on their CGM system for making treatment decisions. This app is for monitoring purposes only.

What devices is Dexcom Follow compatible with?

Dexcom Follow is compatible with your Apple Watch, allowing you to monitor and view glucose information and trend graphs of up to ten people directly on your wrist. Your watch can also alert you when a sharer's glucose levels are outside the norm.

How many people can I monitor with Dexcom Follow?

You can receive and monitor the glucose information of up to 10 different Sharers. This allows you to keep track of multiple children, friends, or other loved ones who are sharing their CGM data.
