If you're using the Dexcom G6 or G6 Pro Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) Systems, you're in the right place. These innovative systems are designed to help you manage your diabetes more effectively by providing real-time glucose readings every five minutes, without the need for fingersticks or calibration.* With the Dexcom G6 and G6 Pro, you can always stay informed about your glucose levels and their trends, which is crucial for making informed treatment decisions.

*Please note, fingersticks are required if symptoms do not match the readings provided by the system.

The Dexcom G6 and G6 Pro Systems are suitable for both children aged 2 years and older, as well as adults with type 1 or type 2 diabetes. A key feature of these systems is the ability to receive personalized alerts and alarms based on your glucose levels directly on your smart device. This helps you quickly identify when your glucose levels are too low or too high, allowing for better diabetes management.

With the Alert Schedule** feature, you can customize a second set of alerts to suit your daily routine. For instance, you can set different alert settings during your work hours and the rest of the day. You also have the option to choose custom alert sounds, including a Vibrate-Only option on your phone for glucose alerts. However, the Urgent Low Alarm cannot be turned off as it's vital for your safety.

The Always Sound** setting, which is enabled by default, ensures you receive critical Dexcom CGM Alerts even if your phone is set to silent, vibrate, or in Do Not Disturb mode. This feature allows you to silence other notifications but still be alerted to important CGM alarms such as the Urgent Low Alarm, Low and High Glucose alerts, Urgent Low Soon Alert**, and Rise and Fall Rate alerts**. The home screen icon indicates whether your alerts are set to sound. For safety, the Urgent Low Alarm and three other alerts—Transmitter Failed, Sensor Failed, and App Stopped—cannot be silenced.

Additional features include the ability to Share** your glucose data with up to ten followers in real time using the Dexcom Follow** app, which requires an internet connection. You can also integrate with Health Connect to share retrospective glucose data with third-party apps. The Quick Glance feature lets you view your glucose data directly from your smart device's lock screen.

For users with Wear OS devices, the Wear OS Integration feature allows you to receive glucose alerts and alarms directly on your watch.

**These features are not available on the Dexcom G6 Pro System.
