Not ready for prime time yet

It’s a good concept. The execution leaves something to be desired. The sensors are inconsistent and unreliable. When they work, it’s a great tool. The other 75% of the time … not so much. If they figure out how to improve reliability, it could be a solid product.

Recent food tracking update is bad

Before, Lingo's food tracking was free-form and let me enter whatever I wanted. Recently, Lingo introduced something similar to what MyFitnessPal does, but the database doesn't have everything, and I can't enter my own food anymore. There should at least be an option for free-form entry when needed. Because of this, I've stopped logging food altogether. Otherwise, the tracking and the graphs are great — I just can't remember what caused the spike anymore.

This app is ridiculous! It doesn't allow you to enter homemade customized meals

You only get to choose from foods on their stupid ridiculous
list, so if you make your food homemade, and not from some restaurant, you're up the creek without a paddle as far as adding it. Most of the meals they have pre- listed come from restaurants or prepackage foods. So if the chicken you ate wasn't from a restaurant, fried in greasy oil, or smothered in sodium. It doesn't matter.. that's what you get to choose from. Nothing homemade. If it's not on their list, you don't get to add it to your glucose rise event. I'm not even going to bother recording any food events now that they changed to this stupid food choice list. Nothing on their list is what I actually ate. My review of this is app below zero! -10! I'm very disappointed in this version of the app. 😡September 14, 2026

Useful, but yet not reliable to work.

I’ve been using this product for a few months now and I found it useful and wanted to continue to use. However one of every two sensors I bought ended early causing me to get them replaced which is an unnecessary hassle. Hope they get better soon making them all work.
