Very inaccurate

I compared multiple continuous glucose monitors at the same time and this one was consistently 30-60 lower than the other ones. The other CGMs would match pretty close and I would compare them to finger pokes and this one again showed much lower blood sugars. So for that reason, I believe it could be misleading for low blood sugars and seriously 60 points off is huge and happened frequently, even if blood sugars showed stable on other CGMs.

Update not positive

Sense the latest update my lingo keeps blowing connection with my phone I have restarted Bluetooth no luck restarted phone it did come back but in 15 minutes gone again now will not come back on. My phone is always within 4 feet of my lingo

Unreliable be careful

I’ve used Lingo for a while now until I realized that the readings are false. I have checked against my blood glucose measuring device many times and the results are off sometimes up to 30 points.
I had subscribed to lingo and when I called and described the problem they wouldn’t take the unused boxes.
Very unreliable product and customer service.

BAD Update

The latest update has totally ruined the usability of this App. Trying to log events is so frustrating now I don’t even want to use this anymore. I have used for several years before and loved the usability. If this is not fixed then I will switch to a different Glucose Monitor when this 24 day usage is up.

Awesome

I have type 2 diabetes. I became much more aware of what foods are good and bad for my blood glucose level. And best of all, I realized which diabetes medication is working really well for me vs working only moderately. For experiment, I took one medication for 2 weeks them other one for following 2 weeks. Results were eye opener
