[Diabetes-Talk] dexcom

You could try using Siri. Just ask Siri to open Dexcom G7.
You could also go back to the app store, and on the dexcom G7 page,
you should see an open button instead of the git button once it's been
downloaded.

Can't really help on finding out where it's at on your phone though.
