Connected devices to fit your lifestyle

Whether you’re going for a run or have your hands full, you can easily (and discreetly) keep track of your glucose by simply glancing at your wrist.

How lifestyle devices work with Dexcom
Dexcom CGM measures your glucose levels every 5 minutes. By using a compatible smartphone* and data from the Dexcom CGM app, glucose readings can be displayed on a connected smartwatch.*,†
Download the Dexcom app on your smartwatch from the Garmin Connect IQ, Apple App or Google Play Stores to get started.
“To have my Dexcom CGM talking to my Garmin watch and be able to see my glucose at a glance is brilliant. I can stand on the putting green or walk between shots and not have to look at my phone. It limits distractions, and my glucose levels can be seen and reacted to discreetly. While training, being able to see it so quickly ensures that I’m safe to keep going.”
