Easy to use. Interesting information.
on March 3, 2026
Posted by: DanielleT
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Starting out, the sensor was easier to apply to the back of my arm than I had expected. There is a small needle but I did not feel anything, not even a prick. For 2 weeks the sensor stayed attached to my arm with no issues even when exercising or taking a shower. The app was easy to get started as well and I could see the spikes in my glucose based on what I was eating. The main thing that I did not love about the app was that I didn't really know what to do with the information. I sort of understand how I might feel differently when my glucose has lots of peaks and valleys and isn't steady and I also understand it's connected to things like food and drink and movement. But it didn't really give me meaningful recommendations as to what I should actually be doing differently besides the general living a healthy lifestyle. I'm not sure if I would feel the need to do another 2 weeks again. It was interesting and helpful to get a baseline understanding of my glucose, but I'm not sure if I would need to repeat it.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was easy to set up and you just follow along with the app. You connect to Bluetooth and then it walks you through the setup process. Easy to apply too. This product is definitely user friendly.

Enjoyed but room for improvement
on March 4, 2026
Posted by: StephyR
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] First off, I want to say the concept is interesting and there is a lot of room for improvement. It was easy to apply, painless and interesting to watch my glucose.
My issues were as following
1) I experienced biosensor failure multiple times
2) I experienced signal loss multiple times a day, I would say the app connected less then half the time, even carrying my device in my pocket on the side with the censor
3) I often had to shut off my phone, WiFi and log out of the app to get it to reconnect
4) the adhesive failed a day early and the device fell off.
When I was able to track my glucose, I found it interesting and the app easy to use and understand. The challenges were fun and the badges were interesting!
Would love to see improvements to the signal loss.

Real data that helped me understand my body better
on March 4, 2026
Posted by: AndreaF
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I wore the Lingo biosensor for two weeks and really enjoyed the experience. I’m always interested in tools that help me better understand my health.
The application was painless, and the adhesive stayed in place for the full two weeks with no issue.
The most valuable part of this product to me is the real-time monitoring. It was really interesting to see how my glucose levels reacted to different types of meals, workouts, and more. Watching the changes has helped me start to identify patterns. I’ve learned from this experience that my glucose averages are typically pretty low and I need to eat more frequently than I have been to maintain a healthy range.
The app is very well designed which made the data easy to understand. The app also includes a lot of great information and challenges that I learned a lot from.
The patterns I discovered within the two weeks I used this may help with things like boosting energy and managing hunger. I’m looking forward to using it again to collect more data and continue learning. I’m hoping this will help me perform even better in my day-to-day life.

Next level health tracking
on March 4, 2026
Posted by: AF38
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As someone who is not diabetic and never checked my sugars, I actually really liked having this information available. Putting it on was super easy and the app walked you through the entire thing with visuals which was really helpful. It stayed on and was comfortable enough I didn’t notice I was wearing it most of the time. The app was easy to navigate and pretty straight forward. They have a “lingo count” but even after reading about what it is, I’m really not sure what or how it’s determined. The downside for me was, it disconnected from Bluetooth quite a bit for extended amounts of time. The app said turn your phone off then back on, but that never worked for me. Usually it just took some time and then it would reconnect. Overall, I enjoyed being able to get this information; especially without having to go thru a doctor. It was really enlightening.

Bent Needle Ended Session Early
on March 4, 2026
Posted by: KiekoC
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product is a great way to manage your glucose levels and I loved that they asked me what my personal goals were. That said, the needle bent even though I wasn’t doing anything strenuous which forced my trial period to a few days early. That part was frustrating but aside from that, I enjoyed the experience.

Reliable glucose device
on March 4, 2026
Posted by: FabinaT
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is an innovative device which no one ever thought of. The application was easy and painless, I did not even feel a pinch, amazing. The pairing was seamless, i was able to see my current glucose data in 1 hour of activating and paring. I entered the food and drink I consumed everyday for 2 weeks since I had a 2 week plan. It was eye opening to see how certain food item raised/ spiked my glucose and also how long it lasted. I experimented in the way I ate my food to see what way I can control a raise/ spike. Just to know ai am not diabetic or pre diabetic still I noticed variation in my glucose on certain food item. There is a limit in this device in regard to lower and upper 55 - 200 mg/dl. So you wont see the lowest or upper beyond this limit. The removal of the device was also easy, did not hurt. I have attached pictures to show how it looks on application and removal. My only recommendation would be that it should have an option to enter the prescription medication one takes and have upper and lower limit alert which I think should be helpful to stay in know of your glucose spike.

Works as advertised
on March 4, 2026
Posted by: GeminaC
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The initial setup and application of the biosensor was very simple and straightforward. The whole process took me less than 5 minutes. Bluetooth connected seamlessly to my phone. The device works as advertised, I was able to keep track of my glucose levels in real-time and learned about my body’s response to my eating habits. I did not experience any issues or problems with the device.
