I have the xDrip+ Cloud dealie set up with my Dexcom username and password and just am curious how often it uploads data to the Dexcom server.

@Headlands Every five minutes. It’s real-time.

I can see you’re making real progress with xDrip+ if your setting up share. You can also set up a master and followers all running xDrip+ thus having access to all reports and data, identical to what the master can see.
