This delay could cause you to miss alerts for dangerously high or low blood sugar, or make treatment decisions based on outdated information.
- 2026-05-20DexcomClass IIDexcom G7 iOS app recalled for delayed glucose alerts
A software defect in the Dexcom G7 continuous glucose monitoring app (versions 2.9.0–2.11.2 for iOS) can delay glucose value updates and alerts when the app runs in the background. When you open the app, notifications may replay in sequence or show outdated readings. In some cases, the app may incorrectly detect signal loss, creating a risk that users could miss high or low blood sugar alerts or make treatment decisions based on outdated information.
