Dexcom Share Overview

2.1 What is Dexcom Share?

Dexcom Share is a feature within the Dexcom G5 Mobile CGM App. It allows for
remote monitoring from one person, the Sharer, of Dexcom G5 Mobile CGM System
data to another person, their Follower.

Dexcom Share includes:
• Dexcom G5 Mobile CGM System
• Sharer's smart device
• Dexcom G5 Mobile App
• Internet connection
• Follower's smart device
• Dexcom Follow App
For a list of compatible devices see: www.dexcom.com/compatibility
You cannot use the Share feature with Dexcom G5 Mobile CGM System Receiver.
Once the Sharer activates the Share feature in the Dexcom G5 Mobile App, the smart
device transfers sensor glucose readings to the Dexcom Share Cloud using either
Wi-Fi or a cellular data plan. Then, the sensor glucose readings are sent from the
Dexcom Share Cloud to the Follower's smart device using Wi-Fi or the Follower's
cellular data plan.
Do not bring the smart device (e.g., mobile phone, tablet computer) into a room
containing medical equipment such as Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI),
Computed Tomography (CT), or diathermy.
These smart devices have not been tested with this equipment. Exposure to these
types of equipment could heat and damage the smart devices so that they are unable
to send or receive glucose information.
The Sharer must be within 6 meters of their smart device in order to send data to their
Follower or it will not work.
