Share Setup and Settings Safety Statements
Warning
• Followers Must Follow and You Must Share
You have to turn Share on to make it send your sensor information to your
Followers. Followers have to download the Dexcom Follow app to see what you
send.
Follow G6 instructions. If you do not, you could have a severe low or high glucose
event.
Precautions
• Followers Do Not Manage Your Diabetes, You Do
Do not rely on your Followers to let you know you need to make a treatment
decision. Stay on top of your diabetes management. Look at your G6 often.
Respond to alarm/alerts. Do not wait for a Follower to reach out – they may not
be getting your sensor information because of a technical issue.
• Check Your Smart Device and Your Followers' Smart Devices
• Internet access required: Both smart devices need to be connected to the
Internet to use Share. Try sending your Follower an email from your device. If
your Follower gets it on their device, both smart devices are connected.
• Batteries charged: Make sure the smart device batteries are charged. If
either your or your Followers' smart device batteries are not charged, Share
will not work.
• Check Your Smart Device
App on: Whenever you power on your smart device, tap the G6 app to open it. If
the app is not open, Share will not work.
• Check Followers' Smart Devices
• Sounds on: Followers must keep their smart device volume on, or at least the
keep vibration on, so they can hear and/or feel alarm/alerts. Smart device
settings trump Follow app settings
