Follow app syncing?

Can this be used with Dexcom follow app as I am a T1D parent and would like to have access to these widgets?

Follow app - Dexcom

Highly recommend. We use this for following with Dexcom.

Absolutely amazing!

Love the app! Its live activity restarts on its own and it does the work that not even the original dexcom app does on my iPhone. You can see the real time numbers on the dynamic island and also your lock screen and the best part it also displays the minutes when it was last refreshed. Definitely recommended especially for iPhone users.

Great app!

Great app but how do you change the readings on watch to mmol/L. I have been able to do it on my phone but not on the watch. Thank you

Way better than Dexcom

The UI issues with the G7 widgets and the consistent way the G7 doesn’t update reliably on Apple Watch drove me crazy for years. Luka is a complete game changer, works so much more reliably. The UI is elegant and practical.

Great on iPhone but watch app not functional

Great alternative to Dexcom interface. But I’d hoped it would offer a more reliable and useful way to monitor glucose via Apple Watch. While it’s possible to install Luka, the app itself doesn’t open and just crashes instantly. Any updates/advice on this would be excellent. Thanks for all your work!

Unbelievable

Clearly made by someone who truly cares unlike Dexcom’s so called “widget”. Thank you.

Millions thank you for that app

So important to see level of sugar for kid. Thank you for make this application

Love the app but the latest update messed up reliability.

This app is simply amazing. I appreciate the dev’s willingness to improve it but the latest update causes it to fail frequently. Go back to the previous version!

Much better than the Dexcom app

I really like the Mac app too

Response from developer

Hi there! Widgets are given a limited "refresh" budget, and Luka tries to refresh as often as possible. When you first add a widget, the system gives it a smaller budget, but if it's viewed often, it's given more refreshes, so over time you should see this improve. You can also set up the widgets to refresh when you tap them. Let me know if you're still seeing issues. Thanks!

Does what Dexcom can’t

This has a nice clean UI and widgets that are clear and useful. As a parent of a T1D child, I can finally have a graph on my watch and everywhere else I need them.
My one request is for a night mode. It’s a bit (a lot) bright at night. 😄

Response from developer

Luka should support dark mode - it'll match the device settings. Let me know if you'd like a dedicated toggle in the settings, you can reach out to me through the settings!

Not working

Since the upgrade Luka doesn’t work!

Response from developer

I'm sorry to hear you're having issues! If you reach out to me (there's a button in the Settings of the app) I'd be happy to help out. Sometimes the app stops working when Dexcom Share has service outages. If the issue resolved itself, would you consider updating your rating?

Wunderbare App

Im Gegensatz zu anderen kostenlos. Funktion ist wie es bei dem CGM Herstellern zusätzlich sein sollte.
Das Update mit Live Activity gefällt mir sehr gut. Ich kann meine Werte auf dem Sperrbildschirm und oben Bildschirm ablesen.

Since recent update, live activities not working reliably

I found this app after Sugarmate became unusable. It is awesome. And free. The Apple Watch complication is better than what Dexcom offers with its follow app. The dev even made a widget for the Mac. Thank you!

UPDATE: the addition of live activities to this app is amazing. I can’t believe the dev doesn’t charge for this. The app should get 7 stars.

Widgets don't work

I really like the Mac app, but the home screen & watch widgets just never work

On my Apple Watch and on my widgets & lockscreen I find it more reliable than the Dexcom app..! Very nice.
