On Wednesday, medical device manufacturer Dexcom finally delivered its direct-to-Apple Watch functionality for the G7 CGM. Here’s how it works.

A constant glucose monitor (CGM) has historically worked by using your iPhone as a middleman. The sensor gets implanted under the skin, generally behind the arm contained in a white plastic enclosure. That enclosure then relays readings in near-real time to a companion iPhone.
For those insulin dependent that use a compatible insulin pump, the Dexcom G7 was also able to send readings there simultaneously.
