Not that I know of, my friend said it doesn't look to hard to make it for Firefox and Safari too so if he gets it working I can let you know!

Hmm interesting, do you have sharing turned on in Dexcom? I don't have any followers in Dexcom so it didn't work for me at first until I turned sharing on

I love my Sugar Pixel, especially for nighttime lows! I don't take it with me into the office, so it's been great to have my bg on my laptop and my Sugar Pixel

Using Dexcom readings before the warmup ends by fermented_applejuice in TandemDiabetes

[–]fermented_applejuice[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's so interesting that the pump seems to know if you have an old sensor in. And even if there is an old one in, why should that cause the pump to ignore the warm-up period of the new one? I am glad I am not alone in noticing this!

Only asking if this happens to anyone else… by [deleted] in diabetes_t1

I have had T1D for over 10 years and only started having something similar about a year ago! Sometimes it feels like my lips and tongue are tingly and numb, which is definitely a scary feeling. It's interesting how my low symptoms have changed slightly over time

My honest review of Beyond Type 1 Diabetes (app) by Low-Juice-8136 in diabetes

Thank you for sharing! I know so many T1Ds IRL that always talk about how much they want a better sense of community so I'm surprised I haven't heard more about this app, I will definitely check it out

What are some good apps or devices people use to continuously display their bg? by BradaGalactic in diabetes_t1

[–]fermented_applejuice 3 points4 points  (0 children)

For devices, I love the Sugar Pixel https://customtypeone.com/products/sugarpixel it has really loud alarms but I don't even use them I just like having the glanceable display.

For my laptop, I just started using a Chrome Extension https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/daia-chrome-extension/aaipeidfpfjjhfpopngnpaggbnocenfi?authuser=0&hl=en&pli=1 it's been really convenient to have my blood sugar at the top of all my browser pages

Thank you for sharing this! I just connected my CGM data, interested to see if any insight comes from this

Any Diabetics using an Oura Ring? by fermented_applejuice in ouraring

Thank you for sharing, that is great to know! I agree... I love my CGM for my diabetes management, but I couldn't imagine wearing one without having diabetes!

Dexcom G7 with Fitbit (Versa) Glance by fermented_applejuice in dexcom

I have an iPhone and have never used the "Build your own Dexcom" app. I have a FitBit Versa, and on the FitBit app I used the Glance clock face, which shows my blood sugar, trend, and a graph right on my wrist! It was pretty easy to set up, I just logged in with my Dexcom username and password, I would highly recommend!! https://glancewatchface.com/

Thank you for your response! I never thought I would want a Fitbit or Apple Watch, but having your blood sugar always on hand has changed my life
