Afternoon! Strange question🙂

Does anyone know if you can have a Dexcom one and Dexcom G6 activated on your phone at the same time?

I’ve just received my first Dexcom G6 for pump training next week as well as having changed my Dexcom one yesterday. I thought it would be an interesting experiment to wear both at the same time for a couple days but don’t want to risk my G6 not connecting or the Dexcom one interfering with the One.

Has anyone ever tried this?
 
No idea I’m afraid. Perhaps call Dexcom / their distributor?
 
Ah of course I can’t believe I didn’t think of that! I think I’m going to give it a go and see what happens. Put the sensor on and activating tomorrow.
 
I can confirm it works!

Findings so far is that the trend is the same which is reassuring but I think I will need to calibrate the G6 as it’s currently 3mmol out.
