It's gone from my watch completely??

It was great until today. It appears to be frozen on page to record insulin units. What is happening? Who can fix it?

If it ain't broke, DON'T FIX IT!

As is often the case, this upgrade is a failure. The guy who designed or approved this new format never uses it or it wouldn't be so useless. I rate it a failure.
Can't write notes like in the previous issue.
Sentences must be restricted to a single line, only part of sentence can be observed. Can't call up old notes easily.
Numbers are too small for easy reading. Many useful features of the previous issue have disappeared. Go back to the old model and ditch this one.

Working good. Can’t even feel it.

Unfortunately it’s day 3 and it came out as I got in bed tonight.

Not accurate

This cgm always show 20-30 points lower then blood strip.its basically useless.

Irritating…. and frustrating!’

No way to modify lower limits; I often have readings on the low 50s that cause me no distress whatever. And it does not seem to record my increase from food intake at any reasonable rate…..to have 3 warnings whilst eating corn-on-cob just interrupts an otherwise very good meal…. I do hope the Libre3 that I finally hope to get soon will be better.

Very disappointed

This is either the 4th or 5th sensor in a row that has either fallen off or lost the signal. Abbott use to be a reliable company. Now they would just rather replace the product.

Not accurate

The alarm on my Libre go off constantly, and the readings are not accurate most of the time I have to uninstall the app most of the time at night in order to sleep without the force alarms

Average

Average looking app

Dexcom user since inception.

I’ve been a CGM user since they were first introduced duced by Dexcom. I think Dexcom is a fantastic company and the device is very good. I had heard about Libre but hadn’t thought to change being very happy with Dexcom. I was given a Libre sample I was reluctant to spend the time and effort to try something new. I’m happy I did. The sensor is tiny, it goes on the back of your arm. Yes I know that’s where dex goes now and I had tried all those places before it was even approved way back with the 1 but until now they were all to big and I knocked them off to easy. Now they aren’t but in comparison the Libre is a Dime and the Dex is a Quarter. I like the Libre app it’s good and the accuracy good. I’m sure it will have its moments like the Dex does but I’m
Very happy with it so far. The size and location are my top likes.

Brooklyn girl

Loves Libre

Not sure what to think

So I know it disconnects randomly to sort of go over its readings but mine has been not notifying me and it’s showing me my results 20 minutes late. My blood sugar bottomed out and I couldn’t see it in real time, luckily I have my glucose monitor with me at all times but besides this one incident I’m really enjoying the app and sensor. I hope this is a bug you guys can fix?

It’s the best app for diabetics I highly suggest that you use it

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Medication

Only give you the options for insulin where I don’t take insulin. I like to indicate that I’m taking my medication’s like I used to do on my handheld meter instead of my phone. Also, I have another program. I do called Wellth Rewards and if I take a picture of my Lusky5, my medications first thing in the morning I get paid for doing that. It’s hard to take a picture of your glucose on the phone I have found that if I use my tablet, I can do that.

Libre 3 Plus

I think you need to work on the Libre to stay on. The adhesive does not stick good.

Pretty good sometimes

I’ve noticed that recently there is quite a delay in touchscreen entries. Sometimes it doesn’t work at all.

Sugar sugar

Awesome job on this App
Love the way y’all have added the compatibility to the iPhone and watch

Dislike

The pitch of the alarm. It is irritating.

Knowledge is power

I love having access to what is going on with my sugar. Also, this new app I'm learning more about the food intake. It's giving me more knowledge. Knowledge is power.

Great app

Since switching to the libre freestyle 3 Plus, this has taken a lot off the guesswork out of knowing when my sugar levels are spiking and falling, which has helped me manage my type-2 diabetes better.

It’s also more convenient than finger sticks.

Please add widgets

Love the app, but all it needs is widgets, so I don’t have to keep opening the app to check my sugar
