[Diabetes-Talk] Using Camera to capture QRCode

Fri Jun 16 03:18:02 UTC 2023

Milton , Thanks for giving your explanation for how your using the camera to
pair G7 sensor very successfully. 
Could you please share about your experience with the over lay patch/tatch? 

A friend is using paper tape or medical tape on each side of the sensor
edges, without assistance, but that only works for one spot on his arm and
he and we all know the sensors  need to be rotated. 

Thanks much,
Mary

Hello,

I just inserted a new sensor for the Dexcom G7 using the iPhone camera. I'm
running iOS 16.5 on an iPhone 14 Pro.

I found it pretty snappy once I was able to place the sensor container in
the position where the code can be found on the outside of the applicator. I
aligned the camera about 6 inches from the container and slowly moved the
camera/phone around until I felt a vibration and heard Voiceover tell me
that pairing was complete.

I find that this looks to be better than the G6 app for the iPhone.

Hope others using the G7 will try it and share their experience capturing
the QRCode using their camera whether its with an iPhone or Android device.
