I don’t think @docslotnick is currently using the G6, but he does have a bunch of xDrip+ experience. I am sure he will be by soon. ---

@Reneecaryn Hi, and welcome! As far as xDrip+ is concerned, make sure location, WiFi and Bluetooth are all on and see if that helps. Also it may help to install the latest nightly version: > **[NightscoutFoundation/xDrip](https://github.com/NightscoutFoundation/xDrip/releases)** > > Nightscout version of xDrip+. Contribute to NightscoutFoundation/xDrip development by creating an account on GitHub. Edit: Have you started to use the receiver or Dexcom app with the G6? If so, you could be suffering from BLE signal competition. That’s less likely with the G6 than G5, but not unheard of. ---
