Your iPhone SE might be the problem from the sounds of it and not iOS
14.4.1.

Also users of either the Free Libra or the Dexcom should be aware that Apple
will soon be releasing iOS 14.5 as I saw the other day that Apple has
release to public beta testing its 5th revision. This will mean it will be
not too much longer before the final version is available. I'm not a beta
tester.

I have a iPhone xR and I have a lot of trouble with it connecting and
disconnecting, I was told by Dexcom not to update my  phone past 14.4 but
it's still not working correctly at all

Hi all,
Last week my dexcom app on my iPhone 6 told me that after May 20 the app
will no longer be supported by IOS12.4 (the highest update available for
iPhone 6, as I understand it). Wanting to get ahead and upgrade to a new
phone, I purchased the iPhone SE2020. I didn't realize before purchasing
that the G6 app won't work with all versions of IOS 14. Dexcom's website
says it works with IOS 14.1 and 14.3; my SE came with IOS 14.2 installed,
and I can update it to IOS 14.4.1.
Has anyone tried using the G6 app with the latest version of IOS? I've heard
mixed things. At the moment, I haven't fully activated my new phone and can
still get CGM readings on my old phone, but obviously I don't want to do
that for much longer. I see a new endo next week and will talk to them about
it (and ask for more test strips so I have backup since my supply is low
right now). I'd rather keep using dexcom, but is there another CGM that
works with iPhone? Does the Freestyle Libre?
I'd appreciate any thoughts, suggestions, or words of encouragement.
Thank you.

Alyssa
