Sensor fallout

Until recently I used to use a G6, which was reasonably reliable, but wanted one with a smaller profile and quicker change over. When this works, it’s great. I have a couple of niggles over what you can and can’t do with the app, but otherwise I can live with that. What I find tough to comprehend is the constant multiple signal drop outs even when my phone is less than two feet from the transmitter. I notice this has been previously flagged as an issue, but it would appear unresolved.

Also the app continues, really annoyingly, to flag up alerts which you’ve no means of cancelling the alert because you’re nowhere near being able to swap to a new sensor. I don’t need reminding every 30s that it’s lost communication/connection. There should be a way to shut this off that doesn’t temporarily involve deleting the app.

Amazing

I am type one diabetic, and this app works really well for me. The machine goes in without any pain too. One problem is it wasn’t compatible with my old phone so I had to get a new one. There is also a lot of signal loss. It has really helped me and is much better then the g6. I recently got a dexcom g7 monitor, and there is pretty much zero signal loss except from when I am very far away from it. It is also very useful that you can pause alert sounds, since when I am going to the cinema I don’t want it to alarm halfway through the movie. Ok, I am writing this part of my review a few months forward, and I am happy to say that the signal loss problem has mostly been resolved! Except for a few times when it randomly glitches

Calibration issues

Connection wise I find this so much better than the G6 app which I had constant problems with. My issue with this app is the calibration. I am having to calibrate A LOT due to inaccurate G7 readings at night. Sometimes it works and sometimes it just won’t let me calibrate. Total pain. Dexcom are aware and say to install and reinstall the app again every time it happens. I hope they work to get this known glitch sorted as it’s driving me nuts and leading to a real lack of sleep while I try and tackle this issue at 3am.
