Ratings and reviews

It's ... fine. It logs readings off the sensor, as it should. You can scroll back in a time a little ways to review the day/week/month. But there's little things that annoy me. Like, it always shows a notification that the app is running, but they don't bother to do anything useful with that notification, like show you the latest reading. There's no widget. So, to see your current value, you have to open the app. This is a number I want to know frequently throughout the day. Missed opportunities

Watch out for subscription!!! No Returns, even for unopened product. They don't give warning before shipping so you can't cancel before they do and not easy to find cancellation in the app which is a bad faith practice. The lack of detail in the app and ability to see past days or exact numbers is disappointing, you can only see the general graph back 24 hours. In general, it gets the job done for current readings.

This app and sensor is useless. I switched from G7 sensors because insurance won't cover them and this saves me around $80/mo, but the data is useless because there is no way to calibrate them. I'm on my 4th sensor and I have noticed a very clear trend of inaccurate results that goes through 3 phases. For the first 3-4 days the readings are 20-30 low. For the next 3-4 days, the readings are pretty close, and for the rest of the session, it reads 30 high. Allow calibration and I'll rate it 5.
