C.3 Smart Watches
Check your G6 on your Apple or Android smart watch.
Suggested Use
Using a smart watch with your system may change how you get alarm/alerts.
• Your smart watch only communicates with your smart device, not the transmitter.
• You won't get alarm/alerts or G6 readings on your watch unless it's connected to
your smart device.
Make sure you understand how you get notifications when a watch is connected.
• You must wear the watch to see alerts and feel their vibrations.
• In your smart device settings, make sure notifications are sent to both your smart
device and watch.
• Don't disable or block notifications from the app.
Waking up your watch updates your current CGM data from your smart device. There
may be a brief delay before your watch app shows current information.
Go to dexcom.com/compatibility to make sure your watch works with your G6.
