Step 1: Connect Dexcom to Sweet Dreams
Already have a follower in Dexcom Follow? Skip to the last step.
- Open the Dexcom app and tap the Share icon to turn on Dexcom Share.
- Invite at least one follower. Your own email address works. Dexcom doesn't send readings to its servers unless someone follows you, so this step is required even if you only want to see your own data.
- In the follower settings, make sure the follower can see your trend graph.
- Accept the invitation in the Dexcom Follow app. Download it first if you don't have it.
- In Sweet Dreams, choose Dexcom and sign in with the wearer's Dexcom account, not the Dexcom Follow account.
Step 2: Set up Mac & iPad
- Search for Sweet Dreams on the Mac App Store (Macs with Apple silicon) or on the App Store on iPad. In the iPhone app, Settings → iPad & Mac can send you a download link.
- Sign in the same way you did on iPhone.
- Optional: Calendar integration (Settings → Calendar, or Settings → CarPlay → Connect with Calendar on iOS 26) uploads your latest reading to a Sweet Dreams calendar. You'll need your Apple ID and an app-specific password (not your Apple password).

Common questions
Is Mac & iPad free?
Download Sweet Dreams from the App Store to try it.
Which Dexcom account do I sign in with?
The sensor wearer's Dexcom account. Turn on Dexcom Share with at least one follower, then sign in to Sweet Dreams with the wearer's Dexcom account.
Does Sweet Dreams work with Dexcom ONE or Stelo?
No. Neither uploads readings to Dexcom Share, which is where Sweet Dreams reads them from. Dexcom ONE+ is supported.
Why do I need a follower if I only want to see my own readings?
Dexcom only sends readings to its servers when Share has at least one follower. Inviting yourself counts.
