The Apple Watch prepares a major revolution for diabetics

When Apple introduced the original Apple Watch in its day, it made it clear to us that we were not just in front of any smartwatch, that we were not in front of a constant meter, that we were not in front of a sports monitoring system, not even in front of a new tool for our health. We were before all that we have said and much more, that is why the latest leaks that relate the Apple Watch and diabetes do not surprise us.

According to the CEO of Dexcom (manufacturer of one of the most famous glucose meters for the iPhone), the Apple Watch could revolutionize the daily life of diabetics soon. It is clear that Apple keeps something secret, since watchOS 4 went little less than unnoticed in the last WWDC 2017.

More specifically, Kevin Sayer has mentioned the way in which Apple Watch CoreBluetoothWith watchOS 4, they can change the way Apple Watch users take their glucose measurements. Currently, Dexcom glucose meters work with the Apple Watch, but the information must first go through the iPhone, which is the one that synchronizes it with the Apple Watch, that is, they do not work independently, a "problem" to solve in this type of technology.

However, Based on the new CoreBluetooth connection available in watchOS 4, the Dexcom G5 glucose meter will be able to make direct contact with the Apple Watch, to inform users more quickly and easily, saving time for users who have enough to waste minutes in this type of activity. Without a doubt, any facility for diabetic patients, millions of people around the world, is an important advance. Nothing like improving people's daily lives in important things like health, and not with new emojis that do not contribute absolutely anything.

Meanwhile, rumors remain that Apple is working on a non-invasive glucose measurement system, which could make it compatible with the Apple Watch, something that the CEO of Dexcom also confirms, although he does not indicate what the method would be.
