The process of acquiring the specified software for a compatible mobile device allows individuals using the Dexcom G6 continuous glucose monitoring system to view their glucose levels and trends in real-time. This action involves accessing a digital distribution platform, locating the application, and installing it on a smartphone or tablet. This facilitates remote monitoring and data sharing capabilities.
This access is crucial for effective diabetes management. It empowers patients to make informed decisions about their insulin dosage, diet, and physical activity. The real-time data, displayed on a user’s personal device, eliminates the need for frequent fingersticks.
