  • Good, but needs a fix

    I love that this app syncs to Apple health, but I wish it would do it automatically. I use the Libre 2, which requires a manual scan. The only way to get the data from Librewatch to Apple health is to open the librewatch app every time. I wish it would just push to Apple health with no requirement from me. Other than that, the app is great!

    Hello! Thanks for your review :) I’ll look into that issue and will fix it for a next update :)
  • Complication Just Not Working

    I liked being able to see the readings on the simple watch face, but today the complication is blank. I tried to put it back but it is not working. I’ve only had it for a week.

    Developer Response

    Hello! Thanks you for your feedback. I’ll try to enhance it and make it work better. Can you tell me what Apple Watch and watchOS you’re using?
  • Good app with some issues

    First I’m glad to see developers in general filling the functionality gaps so completely ignored by Abbot’s own app. Being able to quickly access my cgm readings from my Watch is a nice improvement. But I cannot for the life of me get the reading to show on the complication itself (AWU1 watchOS 10.5) as seen in the example pictures, no matter what face or complication slot I try to use. It’s just a blank where text should be and a trend arrow, and I must tap into the complication to actually see a reading at all.

    So for now, I’ve left it as a quick access on my widget stack. I’d love to be able to see it on a complication though. I look forward to any updates.

    Hello ! I'm sorry about your issue. Can you write me an email, so I can troubleshoot with you? Thanks!
  • The Best…thank you!

    So excited to finally have a quick way to look at my blood sugars without taking out my phone. I find it reliable and super useful. The lag is minimal, if at all, definitely doesn’t bother me. The only thing I wish could be changed is the military time to am/pm. I messaged the developer, but haven’t heard back. Small detail.

    Developer Response

    Hello! Thanks for your review :) sorry if I still haven’t answered, but I will! As for am/pm, I started working on that, and it will be available on the next update :) Update : I just released an update, you can now set the app in am/pm :)
  • Thank you

    After spending hours of frustration, going down the rabbit hole using chain of apps to connect to health app unsuccessfully, your app seemed like a gift. Never been this happy after installing a new app. Thanks.

    Thank you very much for your review :) I’m glad you like the app!
  • Doesn’t work without a iPhone

    I got this app because my daughter is 9 years old and was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes I wanted her to be able to be a kid run around and do what she wanted with out a phone so I figure I would give her my Apple Watch so she could just use the Apple Watch and have her readings without her phone. Well that looks like is not going to happen. She still needs to have her phone or the watch won’t read her glucose if the iPhone is not close by. Her apple watch is cellular and Wi-Fi and is connected so this is app is now pointless me her to use.

    Developer Response

    Hello! I’m sorry to hear that. Indeed, you need to have a way to read the sensor, with LibreLink on your iPhone in range ; Apple Watch can’t connect directly to the sensor for now.
  • Password reset

    Hello! I just love this app. I bought a new iPhone and Apple Watch just to use it. Since there was some issues with the app these past couple days, I am unable to log back in. Is there a way to reset the password? Again, this app is a great find!

    Developer Response

    Hello! You can change your password using LibreLinkUp. This is the account you need to use to log in LibreWatch :)
  • Well done sir, thank you!

    Very handy, really appreciate your effort on behalf of all us Libre 3 users. One issue (others seem to have this as well), the complication on my Series 6 Apple Watch only ever displays a white curved bar above a set of eight dim green segments followed by a gray one. If I press the complication it immediately displays the full app and I can get my last sync’s (delayed, if course) BG number. Would have given a full five stars if the complication actually showed the time-delayed value without having to press and invoke the full app.

    UPDATE 2024Jun20: After installing your latest version yesterday ( I think it is 3.1.0, the one you posted just this week) the complication displays “at HH:MM” ( where the time is set to the time of install) on the innermost curve and “- - MG/DL” on the outer curve. It no longer throws the connection error (thank you for fixing that) but never updates the time or BG # on the complication. Tapping it brings up the full face LibreWatch display which works fine (as does the time graph screen).

    Hello :) Thanks for your feedback, I’m glad you enjoy the app. I’m working hard on making it all working, I’ll look into your issue.
  • I Needed This

    Great app, thank you.

    The installation was a bit complex but straightforward. More timely updating of the display would be nice, but a click is all that’s needed to get the latest reading. I know this is being worked on. Nice work!

    Developer Response

    I’m glad you enjoy the app! There is now a bug because of Abbott changing the way I can collect data, but an update is on its way :) 
  • Issue with Apple Health

    I've been using LibreWatch for about a week now, and overall, it has been a positive experience. The app provides a seamless interface for tracking glucose metrics, and its user-friendly and intuitive. However, I've encountered a significant issue with the integration with Apple Health. Despite multiple attempts to sync the data, the integration does not seem to work correctly. This is a crucial feature for me, as I rely on Apple Health to consolidate all my health information in one place. The lack of this functionality is a major drawback, especially for those who use multiple health-tracking apps. If LibreWatch can address the Apple Health integration issue, it would greatly enhance the app's utility and make it a top choice for health tracking. For now, it remains a useful app with potential, but with a critical flaw for Apple Health users.

    Developer Response

    Hello! Thanks for your feedback! Apple Health integration was fixed on last update, but there might be a bug still going that I’m not aware of. You can send me an email so I can figure out with you what’s going on, and fix it :)
