FreeStyle Libre 3 – US App Reviews

Can't understand why I can't use Receiver and Cell phone with My libre 3 Sensor.... They should both work... If your receiver not with you, than phone should take over or vice versa. But the choice is now it's one or the other....

I have been using Libre style CGM for the past two years. I used iPhone app all along. Glucose readings differ significantly for low glucose alarms. Often the difference in readings is 18+ when compared to Metrix and Accu-check finger stick readings. App must allow custom glucose alarms in addition to the standard alarms and integration with other health/nutrition apps.

While I love my libre 3 having an app on my watch would be more convenient . I can’t always have my phone out but always can see my watch.

1-Be nice if the app kept up with iOS updates. Scary to update iOS not knowing if I’ll lose the ability to cgm. 2-Website difficult to navigate to find compatible iOS versions. This could easily be added to the home page for iOS and android. 3-Should seamlessly integrate with Apple or android watches.

I have been using this app on and off go 1 year. I get 8 cartridges for my prescription. About 4 out of 8 do not last the full two weeks. I always have to carry my phone around because the range is about 20 feet. If the price was lower then I would be a bit happier but since I pay $86 with insurance. $420 without

The 3 works fine but is missing the ability to silence alarms for a set period and restart automatically. This is very annoying as there are times you need quiet for an hour or more funerals, church, lectures, meetings etc and the feature on the Libre 2 was fantastic. It’s ridiculous that this feature was added as an update to the Libre 2 but not included in the Libre 3. Come on Abbott; you can do better.

I have been wearing this for about 10 hours now and it continually has me around 120 mg/dL. I knew this wasn’t right and confirmed it with my standard glucose monitor that does a finger prick…. Keto mojo’s 94 mg/dL vs. Libre 3’s 125 mg/dL. I spoke to Libre support and they said it takes about 24 hours to calibrate. I’ll wait it out with a neutral review

Great tool and app. I find my readings to be in generally valuable but blood tests often show the Libre to be off by 20 or 30 percent off, especially at low or high extremes. I will reiterate what others have said. I’d buy an Apple Watch if it worked with my Libre. I also feel it would be a great benefit if the data could feed other apps like Apple Health. The fact that doctors and healthcare providers silo my data is a problem. I should be able to have a central healthcare data prof

Would love to see it on Apple Watch.

blood sugar readings being available instantly is great. Apperance , functionality, are evolving. all in all i like it

The last couple of weeks have been nothing by “signal loss alarm” and it’s right next to me. I have to close the app, relaunch it. Then wait for a couple of minutes before the number pops up. If I look again, is back to signal loss message with no number:( VERY FRUSTRATING! I finally had to turn off the sound for the signal loss because it goes off all the time. It is happening on different sensors too. Please update the app soon and fix this!!!

It’s almost always a 20/30 minute delay and the readings I get are anywhere from 20-100 points off compared to my home machine. I did notice it works a little better with low readings than normal ones. This all defeats the purpose of trying to regulate your sugar if you’re going off readings a half hour ago.

This app would be useful if it included a Lock Screen widget.

Warning is helpful, and necessary. I admit. But every time it starts beeping, my recording was interrupted and completely stopped. Really annoying.

Lacks so many basic features. Can’t scroll through your readings by touching the chart. Wish I could have it read every 5 minutes and not every 1 minute. Wish you could add pregnancy mode or add weight and height and more details. Lacking too much

Have had this for less than a day. First 20 hours were fine. I wake up to a sub 60 alarm and am instantly panicking. Than I get a sensor error after downing something to bring my blood sugar up. Manually check and my blood sugar is 250+. 10 minutes later I get a 350+ error. Check my blood sugar manually and it’s 300. 50 point difference. My nerves are shot and I’m on the verge of tears. Got my diabetes diagnosis just 2 days ago. I was really hopeful about this, but now it’s just scaring me.

App is great but we should be able to go back and see details of previous readings. Example: I noticed a spike in the morning but I don’t have the exact time or what the actual reading was.

Be aware that this app doesn’t respect your phones mute setting. I discovered this at a concert where the noise of my phone (which I always remember to mute) interrupted the concert. So if you go to those sorts of concerts, turn your phone off or leave it at home.

So disappointed with this app. For some reason, it loses connection all the time?

By making this app more universal and incorporating a feature like Garmin Connect that uses account backups, it ensures seamless use across different platforms without any data loss. This not only enhances the app's appeal but also provides a significant benefit to patients by safeguarding their data when they switch phones.

… if you happen to be wearing headphones. I’m just doing the dishes, chilling, listening to my podcast, and suddenly an extremely high pitched and loud alert almost deafens me. I stopped what I was doing to write this - seriously, someone will sue you for ear damage. The app is barely passable otherwise. Imagine making more money than God and releasing something barely passable like this app - what a time to be alive.
