Freestyle Libre 2 FINALLY has an app for iOS/iPhone. Unboxing | CGM Sensor Change | The Hangry Woman

  • The day is here y'all! Freestyle Libre 2 has an app, but at this time it's just for iOS (sorry to my Android friends).
    In the USA, we have been waiting for the Freestyle Libre 2 app for over a year. Now that it's finally here, we have some answers. I'll remove my Freestyle Libre 2 sensor and show you how to put on the new sensor, and then a short walkthrough of the app.
    Some things to know about the Freestyle Libre 2 App:
    -You will need to log in with the account you created for the original Freestyle Libre app.
    -The app is very similar to the 14-day iPhone/iOS app, but now you can set optional alarms.
    -Urgent alarms are not optional, or adjustable on iOS, but you can adjust regular low and high alerts, and signal loss alerts as you desire.
    -Alarms will bypass any do not disturb functions you have set
    -You cannot use both the reader and the iPhone app at the same time as you could with the 14-day system. Don't start your sensor with the reader if you intend to use your phone.
    -Overall, the app gives you similar information to the 14-day system and is extremely familiar.
    Here's a link to download the apps: www.freestyle.abbott/us-en/pr...

    🌺 Thank you for making this video. I just got the Freestyle Libre 2 yesterday and after watching your video and the clear step by step demonstration, I’m less intimidated on applying the sensor for the first time. You are appreciated 🌸

      @shirlynnharthcock Před 11 měsíci

  • @waitnsea
    @waitnsea Před 2 lety +4

    Thank you so much for your video… I have had Type 2 Diabetes for 10 years and have always hated the needle pricks the most. I watched another video before yours that showed how to do it but it didn’t mention the iOS app at all. So for my next sensor I will be switching to the app for sure. Thanks again, sometimes its easy to get down about our struggles with Diabetes but seeing you smile and show how easy it was, definitely gave me confidence and made me smile as well. I have liked/subscribed and enjoyed your video very much.

  • @GKyo-xf1go

    Thank you for making this video!
    I am a pharmacist, and these new devices perplex me. Drug companies used to send sales representatives (aka “drug reps”) out to pharmacies to show off their new stuff and educate us about them. They don’t do that any more. Your video has shown me what I need to know, thank you!

    Thank you so much. I was just prescribed the Freestyle Libre 2. I am not ok with needles but with diabetes you have to get over that. I have been scared to put the FL2 on. I was scared to do it incorrectly and end up wasting an expensive sensor. I love your video! Super informative, super easy and thank you for being so positive it really helps me not to fee scared about messing up or the needle. I have definitely LIKED your video and SUBSCRIBED! Thank you again for the super-helpful video I truly appreciate you and the information so much. 🤗💐💖

    @terracottawellness1561 Před 2 měsíci

    THANK YOU HW!!! I walked my Bestie through this process but with Libre 3. Finding, watching, and listening to you before she applied the sensor, and then applying it had us high-fiving-it-up-with-a-booty-bump like we use to do as undergrads in college.Thank you for being such a great instructor--you are a stress destressor. We are both subscribing to your channel!💮

    lovely video. thanks for taking out time to make it to help others. I'm using Libre sensor with Blucon Nightrider to get automatic readings without scanning the sensor also there is a feature FOOD INSIGHT which also helps me to know what food i should add and eliminate from my the diet. Blucon helped me to maintain my A1c, no pricking and scanning is required

  • @marykathrynhagge9977
    @marykathrynhagge9977 Před rokem +6

    I’m just now getting serious about a sensor. I like the idea of continuous monitoring. And thanks for explaining that the needle is only the insertion mechanism for the little fiber “wire” that reads the blood glucose continuously. I thought that big needle stayed in your skin!!! Can you see why I didn’t want a sensor??? YIKES!!

    @kartikeymohan2161 Před 2 lety

    I liked your all videos. You really did a great job. For me scanning would have always been a tedious task so I every time look for the options where I do not need to scan my sensor. I'm using Blucon on top of my sensor which gives me readings without scanning the sensor. It has more features than Libre 2. for Libre 2 we have to scan each time to get even readings after alarms but with my blucon it gives me all readings of HI/LO alarms without scanning it.

      @saraheart2804 Před 2 lety

      Is there a Diabetes Educator your doctor can set you up with? If you live in the US there is the American Diabetes Association in large cities or you can call them. They have a lot of easy reading materials they can send you. I wish you the best. It is a lot of information and not just the Freestyle Libre2.

    Thank you for sharing! I’ve applied a new sensor 2 and every time I used your video to build courage when I scared to do it myself. 😅

    I wish I had watched your tutorial first. I read the instructions 3 times before trying Ughhh
    I had trouble getting the cap off the dispensor LOL. Thank you for the information.

      Yes! I have a terrible time removing the cap containing the sensor. It's a struggle 100% of the time. Once done, though, everything about this system is miraculous. The variations of readings compared to my glucometer seem to level off periodically and become to near agreement. Hope I'm making sense.🤔
