The app is merely ok. Just the very basic functionality is there. Note to developers: include a way to zoom in into the graphs. The graph is so coarse. On the left hand side, numbers are incrementing by 50. I have no idea what the actual number is by looking at the line. Need the ability to zoom in. Also, the sensor is taking continuous readings, but on the graph I only see dots for the times I scanned the sensor. I want to see the time and reading as I move my hand on the graph.

I find this app very convenient and useful, as it eliminates the step of having to carry both my phone and the separate meter. I would have rated it a 5, but I'm having great difficulty sharing the results with my endocrinologist, despite having received an email invitation to do so. It seems to be more an issue with my phone (not listing the LibreLink app as an option from which to open the drivers) than necessarily with the app, but it does put a damper on what seems to be a great product.

Overall it's a good app, but there is room for improvement. First, the graphs could be more granular and being zoomable would be great. The glucose level jumps by increments of 50, so it's very difficult to tell whether the value is 120 or 135 when looking at the graph. Zooming would help this, but why not have increments of 10 instead? Secondly, it would be nice to be able to save or share the graphs and include the notes. Right now sharing the graph is basically just a screen shot. Thanks.

Like the app. easy to use. Wish I could send CVS reports to my email in order to analyze the data in detail. I never set up the sensor reader because it cannot communicate with the app on my phone, so unable to upload my data to my computer. I am disappointed I have limited options to analyze the data, but I do not want to carry around the reader.

Nice being able to scan without carrying additional pieces of tech. Downside is if you want alerts, you're back to having to carry the reader anyway because the app is NOT compatible with the version 2 sensors. Please make this a priority so I don't have to carry the reader along with my phone. The phone app is awesome except for this detail. And the "currently under FDA review" is getting old, it's been many months....I still use it and like it, as well as recommend it!!

Overall, it's a pretty good app. Scans and does the job well. My main complaint is the incessant notifications, especially when a sensor is coming close to ending. I dismiss the notification and it pops, at minimum, less than a minute later, up to 10 minutes later. My secondary complaint is the app attempting to scan when the sensor is nowhere near my phone. Doesn't happen a ton, but enough to be annoying.

Can't Believe The Technology Isn't Better!!! Have been using the Android app on my Galaxy since September. Works like a champ. THEN there is an emergency with the patient, my phone isn't available, so I have to go buy a reader. Turns out the reader won't read the sensor because it's already attached to my phone. I had to go get another sensor so it could be initialized with the reader, now my app won't work on the sensor. I just can't believe it is that restrictive. Better just buy the reader.

Pretty good and reliable. Sensors themselves are hit-or-miss (around 33-50% of them fail to start for me, and removing the 14-days-worth of adhesive along with the failed-to-start sensor is irritating, to say the least), but the app has debug/diagnostic codes so you can at least get an idea of why it failed, and the manufacturer has been pretty good about sending free replacements.

My phone auto pushed the Android 10 update and now the app doesn't work! Abbott is taking their sweet time fixing this. They had lots of time to do this prior to the update release and it's been weeks since. What is the issue?! My sensor is basically useless at this point bc I can't access the information on it easily. My reader doesn't always work and has been funky, I usually use my phone bc I always have it. I don't travel with my reader. This sensor is wasted money now. PLEASE FIX THIS!

I am fascinated with this app. It does way more than my scanning device, and I don't have to worry about carrying an additional item around. I love that I can bust out my phone at any moment and do a reading. So awesome!!! I truly am impressed with how much more I can do with my data as far as analyzing trends and logging information and details. It took FreeStyle a bit to release the app, but so happy they got around to it! ❤️
