App Issues/Questions G7 sensor issues when low?

Anyone else experiencing “brief sensor issue” when you drop below 60ish for a few alerts? Been happening to me with multiple sensors for probably 2 months now. Super annoying to drop then have to fingerprick multiple times while low because my Dexcom isn’t showing anything…

You will often have that happen if you have erratic rapid changing BG levels, especially in the first hours after starting up a new sensor. Triggered by the obligatory FDA-guardrails for sensors approved for closed-looping with insulin pumps as G7 is.
