People stopped reaching for their phones.

As a general practitioner, I find this super interesting for a lot of my patients. Amazing that you made this free.

This is absolutely amazing. I'm a nurse and will 100% be sharing this! Really love that you made this free. Thank you!

As a type 1 diabetic, this is a huge quality of life improvement. Easy to set up and works perfectly. It's now my first app and I added the data field to all my activities. You're a legend, man!

I'm T2 and have been using GGlance on my Garmin Venu. It is unquestionably the best app for getting BG results on my watch. Don't think twice or try any other app. This is the best!

I'm a Type 2 and this app is a game changer. Having a readout on the watch while I run is exactly what I needed and was missing from the watch. Overall super happy, the widget and data field are must-haves.

Best glucose app I've seen out there for Garmin. Quick and easy to download and set up, and it works really smoothly.

Has worked well for me so far with my Dexcom G7 sensors. I find it much more reliable than the official Dexcom app. Setup takes a little more effort, but the instructions were clear. Thank you for creating this app!

Great app, and a very friendly and helpful developer. I use it as a follower for someone who wears the Dexcom G7 sensor. I had setup trouble at first, but after I reached out, the app was updated within a few days and now runs smoothly.

A perfect app for tracking blood sugar levels in real time. The developer made the version I needed for my Garmin model available within a single day. Excellent!

Best widget for checking your glucose day to day. The smoothest and best-looking one out there. I use it every day with my FreeStyle Libre 2.

Easy to pick up, a smartly designed interface. It answers a real need and makes everyday life easier. I recommend it!

LE

Tried it on my Forerunner 165 and hit a "bad server reply" error at first. After an update, it now works perfectly with my Dexcom G7.

TY
TylerDexcom G7 user, Forerunner 165

It doesn't flag when the watch is disconnected, which makes the data easy to misread.

Josip ZivicGGlance user

This is the perfect watch face for quick, unobtrusive monitoring of your blood sugar at work or play. It solves the only issue with the GGlance app, that you couldn't also see the time. I'm using the dashboard view: time, blood sugar, a 3-hour chart, heart rate, battery, steps and temperature, all nicely laid out and easy to read.

Hello, you need to add the minutes of the last sugar reading.
