The FreeStyle LibreLink app, compatible with the FreeStyle Libre and FreeStyle Libre 2 system sensors, revolutionizes glucose monitoring for individuals with diabetes. With this app, users can effortlessly scan their sensor using a compatible smartphone to obtain instant glucose readings. A significant advancement comes with the FreeStyle Libre 2 system, where users benefit from automatic glucose readings updated every minute directly within the FreeStyle LibreLink app. This feature, along with alerts for low or high glucose levels, enhances the ability to manage diabetes more effectively.
Key functionalities of the FreeStyle LibreLink app include:
- Viewing your current glucose level, trend arrow, and historical glucose data.
- Receiving low or high glucose alarms specifically with the FreeStyle Libre 2 system sensors.
- Logging notes to monitor your food intake, insulin usage, and physical activity.
- Accessing detailed reports such as Time in Range and Daily Patterns to gain insights into your glucose trends.
- Sharing your glucose data with healthcare providers and family members, with your consent.
Smartphone compatibility is crucial for utilizing the app effectively. Users should check the compatibility of their devices at http://FreeStyleLibre.com to ensure seamless integration.
For users employing both the app and the FreeStyle Libre 2 reader with the same sensor, it's important to note that alarms can only be received on one device at a time—either the reader or the smartphone. Starting the sensor with the app enables alarms on your phone, while starting it with the reader activates alarms on the reader. Although the app and reader do not share data, you can scan the sensor every 8 hours with each device to maintain comprehensive data logs. All data from various devices can be consolidated and viewed at LibreView.com.
The FreeStyle LibreLink app is designed specifically for measuring glucose levels in people with diabetes in conjunction with the sensor. For detailed instructions on using the app, refer to the User Manual accessible through the app itself. If you need a physical copy of the manual, reach out to Abbott Diabetes Care Customer Support.
Before using the FreeStyle LibreLink app, consult with a healthcare professional to ensure it's appropriate for your needs and to discuss how it can aid in making informed treatment decisions.
For further information, visit http://FreeStyleLibre.com. Remember, the app requires a separate glucose monitoring system and does not include glucose readings with its alarms; you must scan the sensor for that information. Both the FreeStyle LibreLink and LibreLinkUp apps necessitate registration with LibreView.
