Ratings and reviews

the app has been very reliable for me. I have used it for several months. only a few times did it lose connection with the sensor where a simple toggle of the Bluetooth reestablish connection. Lots of info in the app. I don't use most of it but you might. the Lingo count has gaol that is unrealistic for me to attain. I have had one sensor quit early, a simple email and I was sent a replacement.

the good news is that it does give info, bit it clips the readings at 200. I'll frequently get warnings about the program not running in the background, when it is running in the background. it doesn't interface well with other systems, and unlike the libre app, I can't easily download and track historical data. there is no web interface so I can't look at data on a real computer, just my tiny phone screen. I want to see live data on my watch. I can't track things like BG and HR in real time

I suppose the fact that an Android version exists and works to a greater or lesser extent is a lot. however, the graph is not very useful because you can't zoom in and see where you ate the meal or where you exercised. you can't go landscape either. I'm on a Samsung Galaxy s24 which is the flagship phone and it doesn't work. I'm grateful in Android app exists but I'm waiting for updates
