User Reviews

User feedback is dominated by reliability and compatibility issues. Many reviews report that the Dexcom G6 Android app fails on many devices or after updates, hiding historical data and showing only the last hour. Calibration and data accuracy concerns, plus occasional crashes and alarm issues, are common. A smaller share praise the app for glucose management and overall usefulness when it operates correctly.
Pros
  • Helps manage glucose levels / diabetes management.
  • Positive user experience when it works (e.g., 'Great!', 'I love it').
  • Long-term use indicates trust and familiarity with the app.
Cons
  • Widespread compatibility problems across Android devices and updates (Galaxy S26 Ultra, A70, ZTE, etc.).
  • Inability to view historical readings beyond the last hour; 3/6/12/24 hour data often missing.
  • App crashes or stops functioning on some devices.
  • Readings can be inaccurate and require finger-stick calibration.
  • Graph shows data but does not display exact numerical readings (numbers missing).

guys ya gotta correct the DOB field. in May 2026 I had to scroll back this many times. (65×12) +5 to get to my birth month and year. that was 785 taps or swipes just to enter my DOB...THERE ARE EASIER WAYS!!

For the last 4 days my app has said "Lost Signal. Attempting to reconnect. Wait up to 30 minutes." But my Dexcom stayed connected to my Omni Pod 5 device. This started happening after I did an update on my Samsung S25 Ultra Monday morning. Since then I did change my Dexcom sensor and it is now not connecting and it still says Lost Signal. This is very inconvenient as I use this daily due to my type 1 diabetes.

I've been using this app for many years now. But recently, why am I not able to see historical readings past an hour back?
