FreeStyle LibreLink - US App Reviews

mostly love the freestyle but my only problem really is the SOUND of the notifications on the app you have no option to turn the volume down or turn it off it is so god awfully and so loud! PLEASE make a vibrate setting. i have a scanner and use the app but if you use the scanner you have to stick with it for the 14 days you cannot switch to use the app to scan and vice versa if you choose to use the app you have to use it the full 14 days.

Wish you could like the app with Apple health if they come out with this I’d give a 5 star no issue with the app or nothing like that just want to be able to link it with my apple health

The developers seem to be lazy and not updating the app to all the IOS updates, lots of issue now with failed scans all the time and delays. To get one scan I have to try it 4-5 times to finally work. All the other times just get errors to try it again. Initially all was good but as IOS gets updated the app seems to be less responsive.

This app does what it is expected to do but in a very sluggish way. Tapping on the scan button to initiate the scan is very unresponsive most of the time.

This app is super useful for tracking a diabetes patients blood glucose level. It used to be snappy and responsive too. Recently, it has become very sluggish - it sometimes takes a few seconds for the UI to do anything or respond when I press “Scan” and when scanning, it also takes at least 4-5 seconds to finish and display the reading whereas it used to take about 1 second and feel much more snappy. Not sure if it’s a recent app update or the IOS 17 update but I did recently upgrade to iOS 17.

Does the job but sometimes need to force close and reopen to get it working right. Wish there was a way to add notes other than right at the time of measurement.

Fix the app!!! I am tired of sitting with my phone in my armpit waiting for the reading to happen only for it to vibrate like it did a reading (after 2-3 minutes) but not actually having a reading In The log only to try 1-4 times again and then giving up or having it actually give you the reading while you are trying again. POC.

Very basic. Doesn’t integrate to Apple Health. Can’t even scroll backward in time to see what the value was an hour ago, which seems so rudimentary and required. The UX for this is very well known, established, open Apple Health and find any value, say Pulse, and drag your finger around & it’ll show you value for any interval, time. It sort of makes the user always look at the Average. Not the current value. Odd. Lots of low hanging fruit here.

Now it doesn’t work at all I tried deleting and reinstalling 2x. Still won’t scan

I was trialed a Libre 3 and that worked great. But my Kroger substituted the Libre 14 day (old version 1) this app that comes with it is a night mare. Buttons periodically do not respond. The app will change previous value. Values will bounce around. Freezes. There is a version 2 and now 3 each with different apps. The developers should either fix the version 1 or stop selling it
