Clarity comes with insights.
By now, you’ve been using Dexcom G7 for a week. If you haven’t already, be sure to explore the Dexcom Clarity feature of the Dexcom G7 app.
In the Dexcom G7 app, you can see high-level glucose insights on the Dexcom Clarity card that’s built into the home screen of the Dexcom G7 app. It populates once it has enough data to define trends, helping you gauge how you’re doing. The more you know, the easier it is to stay in range, which can lower your A1C.
If you want to use the Dexcom Clarity app itself on its own, you can also download it from the Apple Store or Google Play.
