I guess it was about a year ago Sugarmate discontinued their app that let you display your Dexcom feed in the Mac menu bar. I’d been using it for years and really missed being able to just glance up and check on things while working on my laptop. I looked around a bit but there didn’t seem to be anything to fill the gap, so eventually gave up. BUT, oh frabjous day, calloo callay, I just stumbled across a replacement. It’s called Luka, and it’s on the Mac App store. Same as Sugarmate: feeds off your Dexcom Share account, displays your number and direction arrow on the menu bar. Yay!

I’m loving Luka Mini, after keeping an browser window with Sugarmate open for a year or so. I had to upgrade my computer to use it, so it’s cost me several thousand dollars. (Well, if you insist, it was time to upgrade anyway.)
The only problem I’m having is that it won’t open in the menu bar after a restart. I have to trash it, download it again, and open it anew. A minor nuisance, though. I think a pull-down one-hour trendline might be helpful too. But I appreciate its simplicity.
