Persistent Signal Loss Issue
Daily function on this system is actually good, but the problem of requiring complete app reinstalling is still unresolved and for that I would give it 0 stars if I could.
Basically, you need to reinstall the app every time you change the sensor. It otherwise drops out persistently.
I’ve noted another review from last year that mentions this - it’s absolutely ridiculous that in this age that the company has not fixed this issue. These sensors are ridiculously expensive, and for the price you pay you have the expectation of functionality. As soon as I finish using the Libre sensors I have I’ll be going back to using the CareSens CGM. This is terrible service and I expected much more for the price I paid.

Super inaccurate
App reading is regularly 3 - 4 mmol/L off from finger prick test. For example, the app could show 9mmol/L but finger test says 13.0. Plus there are huge issues with the app losing signal and functionality constantly makes me feel like I can’t trust this product to help me manage my blood sugar readings effectively…

Where’s the Apple Watch compatibility?
In this day and age it would be nice to see my readings on my Apple Watch without having to take my phone out of my pocket. Is this in the pipeline?
Stopped working with IPhone SE
App no longer working with IPhone SE - phone fully operational and tested at Apple Store, latest OS 26.6.1 installed, sensor on arm working (tested with IPhone 11).
Signal loss - Libra 2
The new Libra 2 has an error where I have to constantly scan the sensor as well as the alarms not working. I don’t want to delete the app and re download as last time I did this, I lost all of my data history.
This problem needs to be fixed asap

Still a issue
When putting new sensor on have to delete and reinstall app after first reading
Don’t bother getting it if you have an iPhone
Isn’t compatible with iPhone. Worked fine for the first few days, then kept loosing signal. By the end of the first week I had to delete the app and reinstall it hoping that would solve the issue. It did not and I lost a whole week of data. The second week was worse with signal dropping every 30 seconds, wasn’t able to get any useful data from that second week. Gave up and will look for an alternative instead.

Application improvements
Sometimes the sensor stops working and then the application needs to reinstalled and in such cases the history is lost from the app. Ideally after we login the app should fetch entire history. It’s handy to see the trend directly on the app instead of web.
Also many diabetes people have issues with their eyes so dark mode support on this app is highly appreciated. Please bring in dark mode.

Bare minimum data
The app is barely useful. Why can’t we zoom into the daily graph to track what our reading was 2 hours ago? It’s hardly worth checking. I don’t even think the readings are accurate either because it says I’m way lower than I actually am. I’m glad this was $15 because it’s pretty bad.
You should be able to correct a misreading
I started using this last year and I’ve had at least a dozen libres that show glitchy numbers consistently I.e., 4 points below the true reading. There should be a feature where you can correct a misreading so it can get back on track, rather than misleading you into thinking you’re in range when you might’ve spent several hours above range. Other than that, grateful for the technology.

App needs updating.
This is a great device I don’t need to test my self everyday anymore. But it’s very frustrating that the sensor same as last review and issue still not fixed a year later. After 1 hour it drops out of signal for the price we pay for these things that should already be fixed.
Needs a “snooze” button on the alarms
Works quite well to help monitor my blood glucose BUT it really needs a snooze button on the alarms. Having a 15, 30 & 60 minute alarm snooze would alert me to check again after I have just injected insulin.
Most USED button is the smallest
Can you please increase the size of the SCAN button? It would surely be the most common feature in this app, & needs to be a little more prominent on screen. There have been so many times I’ve pressed it, held the phone straight to my arm waiting for the scan, before finally realising it wasn’t pressed right on to begin with. Frustrating.
Also, it would be great to have the ability to SCROLL back from the home screen graph, allowing us to see earlier time frames of that day. The ‘daily graph’ doesn’t always suit for this, especially if wanting to quickly look at previous days.
Thanks. :-)

Would love an option to change the scale of the chart on App
Would love an option to change the scale of the chart, and zoom in to the range that is most relevant to me, having the scale to the current setting makes my reading look flatter than they are due to the blank space. Also I’ve found that blood readings varied a lot on day 1 vs day 2 vs day 3 before stabilising, which caused a lot of confusion for me. Day 1 had frequent low warnings when I was actually ok. I think it was a calibration challenge.

Libre sensor
The signal keep dropping out.
Poor quality
The sensor disconnects something like 8 to 10 times a day completely unreliable. You feel like you are endlessly sinking the app with the Centre.
No, I don’t want you to contact me. No I don’t want your standard reply. I’d just like you to fix the thing.

This app needs work
Low glucose alarm fails to notify you. Constantly disconnects, and is paired with my partners phone.
They get alerts, I don’t. They have to call me to warn me!

Let me add notes with custom times
It drives me up the wall that I cannot add a note for something that has happened in the past! I have a baby! Diabetes! ADHD! I don’t remember to add everything the second I do it and I need to be able to add notes that say when I accurately took my insulin/ate my food etc. not just when I remember in bed at 11pm after I’ve been running around all day. Please add a feature to set a time for notes. Also I wish there was some way to overlap the sensors when the old one runs out and you’re waiting for the new one to be ready. That’s a risky hour, I tell you what.

Unreliable app
I thought that the constant loss of signal was an issue with faulty sensors, but it appears that it is a systemic fault with the app.
Not funny having to repeatedly uninstall and reinstall the app just to make it works correctly.
Not good enough, not reliable enough to go without finger prick testing.
