Dexcom G6 receiver — a standalone device with a touchscreen that receives glucose readings from the Dexcom G6 transmitter and displays them in real time. It replaces a smartphone: glucose level, trend arrow, graph, and alerts — all on the receiver’s own screen, in mmol/L.

Who needs a receiver

• Children and teens without their own smartphone: no third-party apps or games can be installed on the receiver — glucose monitoring only.
• Older users who find a simple, single-function device more convenient than a phone app.
• Insulin pump owners: if your pump is compatible with Dexcom G6 (Omnipod 5, Tandem t:slim X2) and your phone doesn’t support the official app or it won’t activate, the receiver becomes the main way to see your readings.
• As a backup: if your phone dies, gets lost, or goes in for repair — monitoring continues uninterrupted.

Key features

• Real-time readings — data from the sensor every 5 minutes, no scanning required.
• Touchscreen showing glucose level, trend arrow, and a graph over 1, 3, 6, 12, or 24 hours.
• Alerts for high and low glucose, including an “Urgent Low Soon” warning.
• Simultaneous operation: Dexcom G6 can send data to both the receiver and a smartphone at the same time.
• Optional calibration: the system doesn’t require calibration, but you can enter a meter reading if needed.
• Compact size — easy to take along on a walk or workout instead of a phone.

Please note: the receiver has no Share function (real-time sharing of readings with family) — remote monitoring requires a smartphone with the app.
