Libre by Abbott is an Android application designed to operate with the FreeStyle Libre 2 and FreeStyle Libre 3 continuous glucose monitoring systems. It simplifies diabetes management and provides users with real-time glucose data.
Opportunities
The app automatically updates blood sugar readings every minute. Thus, users can continuously track their glucose levels without the need for manual scanning.
With this tool, users may understand how various factors such as food intake, physical activity, and insulin doses impact their glucose levels. The app visualizes patterns in the data in a separate tab. It is possible to set up optional alarms that notify patients when their blood sugar becomes too low or too high.
Wireless connectivity with the FreeStyle Libre sensors is provided, so glucose readings update whether the phone is in the user’s pocket or in another room. There is no need for close proximity.
Compatibility
In addition, the utility connects with the LibreLinkUp app and LibreView data management software. This integration allows you to easily share your glucose readings with family members, caregivers, or healthcare professionals. Please note that the app is compatible with FreeStyle Libre 2 and FreeStyle Libre 3 system sensors and is intended for people with diabetes aged 4 years and older.
