The FreeStyle LibreLink app, compatible with both the FreeStyle Libre and FreeStyle Libre 2 system sensors, revolutionizes glucose monitoring by offering users the convenience of scanning their sensor with a smartphone to check glucose levels. For those using the FreeStyle Libre 2 system sensor, the app provides an advanced feature: automatic glucose readings updated every minute. This feature ensures users stay informed about their glucose levels in real-time, enhancing their ability to manage diabetes effectively. Additionally, users receive timely alarms for low or high glucose levels, which are crucial for maintaining optimal health.
With the FreeStyle LibreLink app, you can:
- Monitor your current glucose level, observe trends with the trend arrow, and review your glucose history
- Set up alarms for low or high glucose levels specifically with the FreeStyle Libre 2 system sensors
- Log notes to track your diet, insulin usage, and physical activities
- Access detailed reports like Time in Range and Daily Patterns to better understand your glucose management
- Share your data securely with healthcare providers and family members, upon your consent
Compatibility with Smartphones
The app's compatibility varies based on the smartphone model and its operating system. For a comprehensive list of compatible devices, please visit http://FreeStyleLibre.com.
Using the App and Reader with the Same Sensor
It's important to note that alarms can only be set up on either the FreeStyle Libre 2 reader or your smartphone, but not simultaneously on both. To receive notifications on your phone, start the sensor using the app. Conversely, to get alerts on the reader, initiate the sensor with the reader. After starting the sensor with the reader, you can still use your phone to scan it. However, data is not shared between the app and the reader, so to ensure comprehensive data collection, scan the sensor every 8 hours with the device you're using. For a complete overview of your data across devices, you can upload and view it at LibreView.com.
