About this app

Lingo tracks your glucose to help you learn how to eat and exercise in a way that’s right for your body. The Lingo app requires a Lingo biosensor.

What, when, and how you eat has a big impact on your body. It’s all connected. And it’s influenced by your personal glucose patterns. See for yourself in real time, with Lingo — a science-backed system designed to power healthy habit change.  

Glucose is a powerful signal reflecting your body’s unique response to food. Lingo tracks your glucose 24/7, translating the data into insights you can use to optimize your nutrition, build new habits, and improve your metabolic health.  

Know your body in a new way.
Rooted in decades of research and made by Abbott — a global leader in continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) technology‡ — the Lingo biosensor streams glucose data directly to your phone, so you can see the impact of what, when, and how you eat.

The Lingo app offers personal insights about which foods work for your body. Armed with data and insights, you can make diet and lifestyle choices that support your health goals.

These are affordable 15 day sensors, very accurate with my actual blood tester. For about $80 a month with no insurance. They stick well. I had one fail which I reported to Abbot, it may be replaced but I haven't seen it yet. I love the short articles and the tracking for food and exercise. Also, the challenges to better yourselves, be it by diet, exercise or education.

It's an awesome product and an incredible price when compared to other brands. Customer service, when issues arise, is a fast process. The only two negative things that I have experienced are that sometimes it takes them more than a few days to reply to messages and that the sensors tend to malfunction after 9 to 11 days of use, but this doesn't happen often, and again, the company is great when it comes to replacing the defective unit.

Only one sensor out of 6 so far worked in full I bought the 6 pack. One quit transmitting data, 5 fell off in a matter of days, and sometimes only hours. They sent me one replacement sensor. it fell off in less than a day. if you shower or exercise I can't recommend these. The data is great and interesting, but the sensors themselves are not dependable.
