MyCGMLog vs Dexcom G6 App
The Dexcom G6 app displays glucose data and alerts, while MyCGMLog provides structured logging for sensor sessions and issues.
Overview
The Dexcom G6 app reads data directly from your CGM sensor and provides features like alerts, glucose values, and health activity notes (insulin, carbs, exercise). However, it does not provide a structured way to log CGM session details, transmitter serials, or issues with sensors or transmitters. MyCGMLog complements the Dexcom app by giving you a dedicated place for the information Dexcom often asks for when troubleshooting or replacing a sensor.
