The low power bluetooth hangs regularly. Whenever you walk away from your phone, at the beginning of your walk you have to restart bluetooth which disconnects your ear pods and watch, then you have to reconnect them. Then you're good to go. Dexcom and Apple really need to work together to fix this immediately and they'll have a completely baked new feature here that improves everyone's lives.

Great vid @tap3me! I wondered if this feature is already available in Spain, as everybody is talking that it started out in the UK and then the US followed, but no clue about other countries… thanks!!

Look forward to the day that Dexcom actually invests in Samsung/Android watch users

@typ3me 24 дня назад

I agree. I reluctantly went to Apple do this specific feature alone.

@tscott655 24 дня назад

@typ3me Fortunately, and thanks in large part to you, I have Dexcom G7 running on my Samsung Z-Flip 5 as well as my Galaxy Watch 5 (workarounds) Hello from Prescott

@katastihon 24 дня назад

Great news. We want this on Dexcom One+ as well. Greatings from Romania.

Hopefully soon. Greetings from AZ.

@MADNESS625 24 дня назад

Direct to watch is only for the g7

@typ3me 24 дня назад

Yes.

@typ3me 24 дня назад

Correct. 👍

The signal loss happens too often. Not reliable. Was thinking of switching from tslim X2 to mobi and relying on the watch but it doesn't seem like it's going to happen.

T1D’s are known to have keen interest in titrating food (carbs), AND quantifying to titrate exercise, visa vi blood sugar while working out; (whew) is VERY HELPFUL FOR ME NOT CRASHING WHILE IN THE PT POOL. Two things that must occur at the same time; knowing my exercise values and not crashing while exercising. The Apple watch has solved this for me and everyone in the room actually.

Direct to Garmin watch would be nice, they have a crazy long battery life.

@typ3me 23 дня назад

I agree. I’ve unfortunately sold my Garmin because their G6 app never included my overpriced watch Fenix 3

@mgronebe 20 дней назад

It‘s incredible. In germany is ist now also available. I have been using it for a few days, but unfortunately the Watch often simply loses the connection. It is not yet usable reliably :(

@typ3me 19 дней назад

I just lost connection today during a run and learned a fix. You can reconnect DTW by closing all watch apps then restarting the g7 app. Let me know how it goes.

I spent $400 on an Apple Watch 9 and I get nothing. No readings from my phone and nothing from direct to watch. My phone app tells me I'm connected but I never get a message to pair from my watch. My phone continuously says my watch is searching. This is very frustrating. The only reason I bought an Apple Watch was to get my bg without my phone.

@typ3me 6 дней назад

That sucks have you tried restarting the 2 devices

@davidbishop466 6 дней назад

Yes, and it still won't connect

@typ3me 5 дней назад

@davidbishop466 Sorry I wish I knew how to help you. Perhaps try deleting and redownloading the app or checking for updates. Another option is waiting for the 10 day sensor session to end to see if the new sensor connects

@davidbishop466 5 дней назад

@@typ3me thanks 😊

@noelreynolds2356 24 дня назад

This is way too late from Dexcom ,they have been promising this for years. And they ignore over half them Android market.

@typ3me 23 дня назад

I really do wonder why Android has been left out. I feel that these features should be available to open API. Let the best app developers make these apps work with their devices.

@milosd 21 день назад

It would be useful if they said that they will not include Dexcom share. Never crossed my mind that they won’t ship that feature. Our son has t1d, so without Dexcom share, watch is useless for us…

@typ3me 20 дней назад

Good point. I agree what’s the point of tech if it doesn’t make your life easier.

@slackleashdogtraining3598 20 дней назад

Direct to watch feature, will not interfere with the follow feature directly addressing your demographic; but I totally get that it’s frustrating to not have all features on all platforms now. Today though I am able to monitor BG while I’m doing P.T. in a hot salt pool and can read BG anytime, very helpful I’ve had two crashes in that pool.

@milosd 23 часа назад

It’s great that they implemented direct to watch, it solves a lot of hassle for a lot of ppl. The thing is, share feature looks like the simplest thing to implement. It never crossed my mind that they’ll not implement that one.
