[Diabetes-Talk] Dexcom compatibility

[Jamie Gurganus]

Greg,

I I am running 13.5 on my new iPhone SE, and my Dexcom works just fine. As with any version updates, I sometimes get messages from Dexcom that says they are currently testing the latest version and to continue to the app. Once continuing to the app, I sometimes have to open and close it several times before it works. It always does though.

I am using 13.5 on a brand new SE, and my Dexcom works just fine. As with any IOS  update, Dexcom gives you an error message every now and then for several weeks. It just says that Dexcom is testing the latest version and to continue to the app. Sometimes, I have to open and close the Dexcom app several times to get it to work correctly, but it always does.
