Use this app if your loved one is sharing data from their Dexcom CGM app. The Sharer will need to send an invitation to allow you to connect after you have installed the Follow app.
Dexcom Follow works seamlessly with your loved one’s Dexcom CGM, giving you visibility into their glucose data, even when they’re far away. Dexcom Follow allows you to view and follow their glucose levels, trends and data right from the app. Whether your child is in school, your parent lives independently, or your partner is traveling, Dexcom Follow helps you stay connected and informed.
With Dexcom Follow, you can:
• Receive glucose information of up to 25 different Sharers – children, friends, or other loved ones – if you know multiple people with diabetes
• Respond quickly with the help of customizable glucose alerts and push notifications that can inform you when a Sharer’s glucose levels are outside of target range

However, many reviews repeatedly report critical reliability problems: missing/delayed alerts, data gaps or 'No Data', frequent freezes and need to refresh, and loss of quick-glance features. These issues pose safety risks, especially for caregivers monitoring children at night. Overall, usefulness depends on stability and timely notifications. ### Pros - Landscape view now shows blood sugar and time and is easier to navigate - Easy to use - Has saved lives when it functions correctly - When it works well, the app provides effective glucose monitoring and follow features ### Cons - Alerts/notifications are unreliable or missing, which can be dangerous - Frequent data gaps or No Data that prevent monitoring - Frequent freezes/crashes and need to refresh or restart the app - Loss of quick-glance features and widgets (no longer easy to view at a glance) - Connectivity/server issues causing downtime or delayed updates ## Similar extensions and apps - [Dexcom Follow (US)](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.dexcom.follow) — 753,877 users, 2.66 / 5 - [Dexcom Follow mg/dL DXCM1](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.dexcom.follow.region1.mgdl) — 84,116 users - [Dexcom Follow mg/dL DXCM2](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.dexcom.follow.region2.mgdl) — 130,695 users - [Dexcom Follow mmol/L DXCM15](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.dexcom.follow.region15.mmol) — 3,367 users - [Dexcom Follow mmol/L DXCM1](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.dexcom.follow.region1.mmol) — 176,899 users - [Dexcom Follow mmol/L DXCM4](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.dexcom.follow.region4.mmol) — 39,789 users - [Dexcom Follow mg/dL DXCM10](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.dexcom.follow.region10.mgdl) — 2,448 users - [Dexcom Follow mmol/L DXCM5](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.dexcom.follow.region5.mmol) — 37,130 users - [Dexcom Follow mmol/L DXCM10](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.dexcom.follow.region10.mmol) — 950 users - [Dexcom Follow mmol/L DXCM2](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.dexcom.follow.region2.mmol) — 2,377 users - [Dexcom Follow mg/dL DXCM3](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.dexcom.follow.region3.mgdl) — 13,694 users - [CareLink™ Connect](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.medtronic.diabetes.carepartner) — 320,475 users, 2.13 / 5 --- Source: [Chrome-Stats](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.dexcom.followglobal)
