About this app

Manage diabetes together with the LibreLinkUp app – a tool for monitoring someone's glucose from afar [1]. Now with interactive glucose graphs and glucose alarms [3, 4].


LibreLinkUp allows you to monitor and support people who are using a FreeStyle Libre sensor and compatible FreeStyle Libre app. You can link up by asking them to invite you in their app.

Whether you’re a family member, friend or co-worker, the LibreLinkUp app helps you monitor and support people in your life so they can better manage their diabetes. You can use the LibreLinkUp app to view their glucose with a quick glance of your phone if they’re using a FreeStyle Libre sensor and app.

Innovations include:

GLUCOSE HISTORY AND INSIGHTS: Touch the glucose graph to see recent history, or review a logbook of glucose scans [2] and alarms [3, 4] – so you can better understand glucose patterns
GLUCOSE ALARMS: Receive alerts when glucose is high or low, so you can help them take action [3, 4]
SENSOR ALERTS Get notified when a new sensor is started, and when a sensor and app lose connectivity [3, 4]
DARK MODE: View glucose data in lower-light conditions, whether it’s in a cinema or the middle of the night

Ratings and reviews

Terrible and dangerous. Alarms are failing to sound every day now. Causing immense anxiety for the whole family. Using alongside omnipod 5 and the alarm on it is just a single beep which wouldn't wake you/us when child is sleeping in different room. Therefore the librelink up alarm is essential to be notified of a nighttime low. You don't know the alarm isn't working unless you realise there is a low or high be looking at omnipod controller. We've now decided to switch to more reliable dexcom.

Performance is just passable. I quite enjoy apps that do what they're meant to do well without extraneous features, so that's a plus. However, the notification functionality customization is poor. Having preset alerts that don't have the same alarm functionality as the main app made for the patient is irritating. Furthermore, the data collection they do on you is highly alarming. There's no reason to collect any of the data that they do. This app isn't even for the patient.

The app needs work. It really needs different alert tones for high and low glucose events as well as loss of signal events. It may also be beneficial to have the option to mute alerts for a specified time. If the monitoring phone was left away from the user, e.g. left at home, continuously alerting serves only to annoy.
