[Diabetes-Talk] Anyone using Dexcom G6 with I O S17?

[Patricia Maddix]

Diane,
I thought the same thing when I got it too. The lid is on very tight and I also find the button to press to apply the sensor is quite firm as well. I wish these devices didn’t require quite as much strength to get the job done.
Patricia.
