Dexcom Follow is a valuable tool for caregivers who need to keep track of a loved one's glucose levels remotely. It allows you to view glucose readings, trends, and alerts from a Dexcom continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) system on your iPhone or iPad. This is particularly helpful for parents monitoring children with diabetes, or for adults caring for elderly relatives. The app provides real-time glucose data, customizable alerts for high and low glucose levels, and trend graphs to help you understand glucose patterns over time. By staying informed and connected, Dexcom Follow enables caregivers to provide better support and peace of mind, even when they're not physically present. Note that the primary Dexcom app must remain running in the background for followers to stay connected.

Updated review. Just found out that if the person wearing the Dexcom closes the app, it disconnects people who follow. So make sure whoever has the primary Dexcom app on their phone keeps the app running in the background so caretakers can follow.
