I’ve just upgraded from the Libre 2 to a Libre 3 with this app. I’ve used the 2 for a couple of years so I’m very familiar with it. I’m on day five of using the 3 and it has been dramatically inaccurate. I’ve had 3 false low alarms (below 70) with finger stick readings above 110. Readings jump erratically and illogically. I already had IOS 18 on my phone. I’ve called Abbott and escalated 3 times. They say that it’s really not a problem with IOS 18 except that it may be inaccurate for the first 24 hours but it should okay after that. Abbott told me that the “industry standard” is that the sensor reading should be within 30% of a finger stick reading but this sensor should be no more than 20% off. Again, I’m at day 5 and I’m still getting readings well out of that range. I’m a retired full professor teaching research methods and biostatistics at a flagship state university in Florida. I’m preparing a report for the FDA to document this sensor/app as a defective medical device. I’ve working with United Healthcare to reach out to the organization that sold me the unit.
Also, the alarm is too soft to wake me up like my regular iPhone alarms do and Abbott seems to have no clue about how to change to a louder alarm. I keep my phone volume at max. It was fine with the 2.
I could not issue a stronger warning against the Libre 3 and this app. Please use a finger stick check before making any decisions based on the these readings.
