Limited alert option is dangerous! – Dexcom Follow Review

For anyone who knows the unpredictable nature of diabetes, it’s appalling that this app has two incredibly dangerous flaws both having to do with alert time choices. The “no data” alert starts with a minimum of alarming after 30 minutes of no data. I don’t think the developers realize how much can happen in a half hour!! Our son was already heading into severe hypoglycemia because there was no data and it only alerts you after a half hour. He dropped like a lead balloon in that amount of time. Both that option and the option of a repeat low alert (which is also 30 minutes or more) NEED to be changed so the follower has more options. Perhaps 15 or even 5 minutes?? Such a simple fix for a major consequence
