Les, what model iPhone are you using? That will help so that those who are having any kind of trouble can be aware if they should decide to update phone or OS.

Anyone using an iPhone older than the iPhone 7 should definitely consider updating to be able to take advantage of not only the new chages but also some of the new things that Apple is adding to the OS.

Hi Milton and Everyone who responded to my query:

Thanks for the info on what you've experienced. I will be curious to hear how the 14 Pro phone is for you. I plan on going into an Apple store in another 2 weeks. I'm still undecided on what I'll do, but I think I'm leaning towards getting a new phone since my 10 will be 5 years in another 3 months and its served me very well.

Eileen

Hello All:

I'm not experiencing any real significant problems with updating to iOS 16.0. I first updated to iOS 15.7 then followed it by updating to iOS 16.0. Running and using an iPhone 11. 

Will be receiving a new iPhone 14 Pro sometime today and will be updating the phone in the next day or so and I'll let you all know how it goes with my Dexcom G6.

One thing that I have been advised is that one should calibrate the Dexcom G6 every time one changes the sensor. It doesn't matter if you have a high reading when testing with your glucose meter but it is a good idea if you have a high reading that you also test and calibrate when you do have a low reading as well.

Hope this helps people using the Dexcom G6 and finding that you are having trouble using your iPhone or iPad running iOS 16.0

I also saw a note yesterday that Apple will be releasing a fix for 16 iOS sometime next week which hopefully fix some of the problems that people have been having when they updated their iOS to 16.0. Not sure what the version number will be for the iOS.

Milton

I downloaded IOS 16 a week ago and haven't had any trouble at all.
