      I'm a home automation nerd and was looking through your other videos to see if you mention this feature or not... but dexcom integrates with home assistant for home automations. so i can have my glucose shown on a tablet mounted to my wall that also controls my lights and has my security camera feeds... but beyond that i can even set automations based on my readings... i recently set one up that if my sugar is low AND trending down at night it will automatically turn on the lights in the bedroom to wake me up. it can only get more interesting from there... im working on an automation that will alert my wife if my sugar is critical and i'm not physically near her.

    I’m so happy I found your channel. My dad is type 2 after having a Whipple procedure about 15 years ago. He had another change in his medial status so I was able to switch him from the Libre 2 to a Dexcom - so excited to not have to constantly bug him to scan his arm all the time!! Thanks for all the helpful videos, I feel so much more confident when it comes in the mail this weekend.

      What series is your Apple Watch? I THINK it only works with series 6 or higher
      I can’t get it to work on my older Apple Watch but I can get the app on there so that I can tap on the app to get my blood sugar, but I can’t get the complication on my home screen.

    Hello. Excellent video, thank you! I successfully have my Dexcom app on my Apple Watch 6, and put a complication on my home screen. (super convenient!) but the number keeps disappearing. Often reads "---". When I tap it, it comes back, but why does it keep doing this? Thanks in advance!

    Hello, which apple watch series version and watch os etc do you use successfully with Dexcom G6? I recently got burned by Garmin only having support for G6 in the US. So now I want to check more carefully for support outside of US.

    • @robin31165
      @robin31165 Год назад

      I’ve been trying to set it up on an older Apple Watch and it’s not working as far as adding it as a complication. You can put the app on your watch and then tap on it to see your blood sugar, but I don’t think you can set a complication on an Apple Watch prior to series 6. At least that’s what I’m finding out.
      Good luck 😊

      I was able to use the Dexcom app on my iPhone 4 & also on my 11 & 13. My Apple Watch 3 will accept the app but I can’t get the complication to go on the home screen. I believe you need a six or higher - watch, that is).

    I have Dexcom running on both my iPhone and Apple watch. And when I ask Siri on my phone it will give me my glucose reading. At one time I was able to ask Siri on my watch what's my glucose? and it would speak it back to me via my watch. It no longer does this and I have tried numerous times to get it to work but unsuccessfully. I have reloaded the app on the watch and when asked Siri comes back: "I do not recognize that command. What short cut do you want to run?" I have not tried reloading the G6 app on the iPhone as of yet. Any fix suggestions?

  • @MWS1960
    @MWS1960 Год назад

    It would be nice to get the reading on the watch without the phone being next to the watch. I have the new Ultra Watch from Apple that has its o an SIM card…so basically I can make calls directly from the Watch. I would you should be able to get dexcom reading directly to the new ultra watch…effectively the watch is a phone with its own SIM card
