When using Direct to Watch, will I get my numbers while I am swimming?
If you're in water, you may not get sensor readings until you get out.
Once inserted, the sensor is waterproof up to 8 feet. You can swim, shower, and take a bath with the sensor.
When your sensor readings resume:
- Up to 24 hours of missed sensor readings can fill in on the trend graph on your phone app or receiver.
- Up to 6 hours of missed sensor readings can fill in on your watch app trend graph.
The patch stays on longer if kept dry. For details, go to the Adhesive Patch section in the Troubleshooting chapter of the User Guide.
*The Dexcom G7 sensor is waterproof and may be submerged under 8 feet of water for up to 24 hours without failure when properly installed.
