DexCom, Inc. announced that the Dexcom G7 Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) System now connects directly to Apple Watch in the United States. Dexcom G7 is the first and only CGM available with Direct to Apple Watch, offering users the freedom and convenience of real-time glucose readings on their wrist even when their iPhone isn't with them. Using its own dedicated Bluetooth connection, Dexcom G7 sends glucose information and personalized alerts right to a user?s Apple Watch, allowing them to go for a run, enjoy a dinner out, and feel confident leaving their iPhone behind.?
