## Review summary

Users praise Sugarmate for lifesaving alert calls/texts and data sharing with doctors/family, plus Dexcom compatibility. However, many report repeated sign-in and reliability problems, especially after redesigns and during iOS updates. The removal of power-user automation (Siri Shortcuts) and ongoing integration gaps (Apple Health/Watch) are common pain points, with requests for broader CGM support and improved stability.

### Pros

- Lifesaving alerts via phone calls and texts for lows, especially overnight
- Ability to share glucose readings with doctors and family
- Dexcom CGM compatibility and potential support for additional sensors
- Customizable alert methods (phone calls and texts) and reliability when they work
- Legacy power-user automation via Siri Shortcuts (appreciated by long-time users)

### Cons

- Frequent login/sign-in failures and authentication errors across iOS updates
- Reliability issues: frequent disconnects, not syncing, logouts, and missing readings
- Redesign by Tandem degraded usability and removed or weakened power-user features (Shortcuts)
- Limited hardware compatibility (primarily Dexcom; desire for support for other CGMs)
- Apple Health/Watch integration issues and OS compatibility problems (iOS updates causing outages)
