App: Smart Watches

Using a smart watch with your system may change how you get the Alarm and Alerts.
• Your smart watch will only communicate with your smart device, not the Dexcom G5
transmitter. You will not receive sensor readings or Alarm/Alerts on your watch unless it
is connected with your smart device.
• Set your device settings to send notifications to both your smart device and smart
watch.
• Do not disable or block notifications from the app.
• Make sure that you understand how notifications are received once you pair a watch.
When you wake your smart watch, it updates your current CGM data from your smart device.
There may be a brief delay before your watch app shows current information.
For compatible devices, see dexom.com/compatibility.

To check your CGM on your Wear watch, use the Dexcom watch face. See your Wear device
instructions to learn about setting a watch face.
Apple Watch
To check your CGM on your Apple Watch, add the Dexcom G5 app. Use the Watch app
installed on your smart device.
