A Very Underrated App, IMO

There are other Glucose apps, which charge for live activities not nearly as accurate and helpful as FLwatch. I started using this when I still had an Apple watch which I’ve since ditched because of the inexcusable battery life. Still use on my iPhone and the Live Activities update with my Librelink app immediately. Thank you for a great app with both privacy and great performance.

Works great

This app does what Libre 3 is too lazy to do, it talks to my Apple Watch! Yay! Now I have to figure out why it won’t talk to Apple Health.

Response from developer

Thanks for the review. Maybe some missing permissions for Apple Health? Please send an email to support if the problem persists.

This is exactly what the Abbot app is missing. Thank you very much for working on this!

Usefull

This app is great. It brings functionality that Freestyle should really supply via their app. Well done and thanks

Response from developer

Thanks. Glad it helps! 😊

At last, an app that’s practical!

love love love the app. User friendly and just sensible. Being able to easily see what’s going on at a glance without having to open apps and pressing a million buttons is amazing. My only suggestion/request would be to make the ‘resulting carbs’ button a free-fill option when we know the carb quantity already. Coffee donation on it’s way to you, it’s well deserved for making my (and my kids) life so much easier. Thank you!

Response from developer

Thank you so much for your review. I agree with the carb field. But I could not make it accepting input as well. And adding another field made everything too cluttered. My wprkaround: add the carbs on the carb/100g field, tap the 100g portion field and there you have the carbs you entered. 😊

Great looking app but it eats battery charge!

I installed this app two days ago and have to say that initially I was very impressed. Really nice graphics and faultless operation. After 24 hours it became apparent that both phone and watch battery charge levels were being badly impacted. Another 24 years on and the iPhone battery app reports 40% usage by the FLwatch app.
I have reverted to SweetDreams app which functions the same but only uses a few percent in the same time. Real shame. 😞

Response from developer

Thanks for taking the time to leave feedback and for trying FLwatch. FLwatch is a free and open-source project that I develop in my spare time to help the diabetes community. I genuinely appreciate bug reports, feature suggestions, and constructive criticism, because they help improve the app for everyone. That said, some limitations are outside of the app’s control — especially regarding iOS/watchOS background updates, widget refresh frequency, and battery usage, which are heavily restricted by Apple’s system policies and can vary significantly between devices and configurations. I always try to improve performance, reliability, and battery efficiency whenever possible. If something is not working as expected, please consider reaching out through the project channels with details about your setup so issues can be investigated properly. Thank you again for your support, patience, and understanding.

Excellent. Top notch

Very useful to get the libre 2 sensor data in near real time on the apple watch. The widget was easy to set up a complication on ultra watch face instead of (music) and i get a direct read of sensor data.. clicking on brings up a graph. All I need! Great!

Diabetiker Must have

Ich kann dem Entwickler nur meinen herzlichen Dank aussprechen und hoffe meine Kaffeebohnen haben geschmeckt.
Alleine für die Carplay Funktion gibts bei mir schon 100 Punkte. Unverständlich das Abbott so etwas nicht auf die Reihe bekommt, bei den Milliarden die die mit Libre verdienen.

Works but fails to update

The app works as advertised, only problem is that the lock screen graph and number do not update. When you press the update button, it opens the app. This is not why I wanted this. I want an app the can be made to show the current blood glucose number as measured by my CHM to show on the lock screen. Three stars as the app is halfway there….
Wow, got a nasty message from the developer. Diabetics are looking solutions. I understand that being limited by iOS is frustrating but not nearly as frustrating as monitoring your vital signs every 15 minutes and taking six shots of insulin a day. Maybe the rating should one star based on customer service.

Genial

Endlich eine App die den Blutzuckerwert auf der Uhr anzeigen lässt und das sogar mit Verlauf. Alle 15 Minuten wird der Wert aktualisiert und das ist genial so hat man den Zucker kontinuierlich unter Kontrolle - nach dem Essen sollte man ja sowieso wieder erst nach 2 Stunden messen bevor man mit dem Insulin gegenreguliert.
Ich hoffe der Erfinder der App gewinnt im Lotto weil die App ist Goldwert!

Incredibly good.

This app is incredibly good and works surprisingly well. The only time it’s stopped working on my watch. is when my sensor disconnected and that’s not the fault of the app.

I wouldn’t recommend this with Freestyle Libre 2 sensors because of how unreliable those sensors are for staying connected. Again that’s the fault of the sensors and not the app.

So far it works incredibly well with the Libre 3 Plus sensors and I highly recommend it!

Incredible app

App is in incredible for my diabetes with using my watch such a great useful app for anybody with diabetes and keeping eye on daily basis especially with Apple Watches so great

Response from developer

Thanks a lot. I am glad the app helps!

Great app

Thanks a lot for such a great app that lets me keep track of my blood sugar easily on my phone

Response from developer

Glad it helps! Thanks for letting a review!

Awesome but not working anymore

Worked flawlessly for a few months but now, not working on my iphone 17 pro. Why ???

Response from developer

Hi, good question, what exactly is the problem? Best is to send an email to support. Thanks.

Fab and easy to use

This is the app that Freestyle Libre sensor users need (ie all the missing functionality that Abbott can’t be bothered supply as standard!).

1. Integration with Apple Watch using the LibreLinkUp data. Very easy to set up, especially if you’ve already done this yourself share data with your GP/DSN. FYI I use the modular watch face and set the complications to update every 20 minutes.
2. Ability to record IOB - no idea why LibreLink doesn’t do this - prettier y essential.

The app is free, but I’ve bought the developers some coffee and recommend you do the same 😀

Es funktioniert tadellos über meine WatchOS. Ich hoffe es ist wirklich kostenlos.

Apple health

Why is not connected to Apple Health? Is there any issue or reason for that?

Response from developer

Apple Health is supported now since a few months. Please try it out.

Tolle App

Funktioniert echt gut mit Apple Watch

Klasse App

Teste die App jetzt seit zwei Tagen und sie funktioniert problemlos. Endlich Freestyle Libre3 auf der Apple Watch.
