I have been waiting on this one, Sugarmate was US only until the other day.
If you have a Dexcom g5 you set the share to one of the followers and thats it. The app itself is rather good (see screenshot - and don't worry about the numbers the Dexcom sensor has been on its last legs the last few days and kicked it today).
You can set a few options not present on Dexcom such as alert if high than normal for an hour ... etc. You can also get an automated phone call if your numbers hit extremely low numbers (ideal for those who sleep through nighttime hypos).
But the best feature is the apple watch integration. Its rather clever and doesn't have a complication on the watch (yes that what they are called) but lists a calendar entry. This sounds odd but it complications only refresh every 15 minutes (including the official Dex one). Calendar refreshes instantly, so you always get the latest reading. So really handy for those UK people who have been waiting on the watch app for too long.
Best of all its free, and side note I have no ties to links or the company.
