[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The set up was easy, the app was easy to install and use- the only issue it had was very rarely the real time data connection to app disconnected- it would still store the data until it restores the connection. it is a 15 day monitor and needs to be changed after that.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I happened to use another brand CGM and prefer it because it integrates with my Oura ring and some other apps I use to monitor my health. I do think the readings are more accurate in Lingo though I had to restart the app a few times to get it to pair with my phone when I was setting it up. Glad I got to try this one but I’ll likely repurchase another brand. Small but obvious. Someone ask me if I had diabetes. lol.
Very interesting health tool with minimal annoyances.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was skeptical on how useful this device and knowing this information would be, but I was pleasantly surprised by just how useful it is. Attaching the device to the back of my arm didnt hurt at all, the installation was very easy, and then it just lived on my arm for 2 weeks. It didn't come off or loosen during showers, working out, sleeping..it was very well adhered to my skin without causing any irritation. I have more sensitive skin to some adhesives and this didn't cause me nay issues. The data was super interesting to see and track how my normal every day foods and activities affected my glucose levels. I do think it could cause people some anxiety if you're very health conscious or are predisposed to panic about your overall health, but for most that won't be an issue. It was a neat experience that the app made pretty easy to understand what the data meant and I would absolutely do it again. If you're looking for a way to fine tune your eating habits to work with your body better, this is definitely a helpful tool.
What types of food and time during the day where my glucose spike out of the norm

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It is very comfortable to wear. I even forgot that I have it on my arm. I’m pleased with the detail data I’m collecting in regards to my glucose level. My dad is diabetic so it’s great for me to keep track of this info.
I would definitely recommend it. Even if you only use it once, it’s a great way to gain valuable insights into how your body works.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My first impression of the Lingo glucose monitor was that the needle looked scary because it seemed so big and long. When I finally attached it to my arm, I was shocked - I thought I hadn’t even applied it yet, but it was already on. I felt absolutely no pain. Honestly, it felt like putting a sticker on my arm, or maybe even less noticeable than that. As someone who was previously prediabetic and reversed it through diet, this monitor has given me incredible insight into how my body responds to different foods and daily habits. It’s been extremely helpful and educational. I learned how important sleep is, and how eating protein and fiber first, followed by carbohydrates, can make a big difference in my energy levels and fatigue. Whenever I feel extremely fatigued, I can usually see it reflected in my glucose chart. I can also tell when I’m having a good day or after I’ve had a great night’s sleep based on the patterns. It has helped me better understand my body and make lifestyle changes that work for me. I would definitely recommend it. Even if you only use it once, it’s a great way to gain valuable insights into how your body works.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It was very insightful. I found that the food I eat doesn't have near the effect I thought it would. My rest and movements have a much bigger effect. It was easy to put in and completely painless. It did start to get slightly irritated towards the end of the 2 weeks tho. It came off easier and cleaner than I expected as well. If I had concerns about my health I would use it. But it showed me my glucose is low if anything. The app was easy to use, and included extra tips on diet, health and exercise.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Okay, I get the hype now lol…it’s fascinating to see what different foods do to my glucose levels in REAL TIME! Some of my biggest “healthy” foods were NOT what I expected! The sensor was easy to put on, the instructions were amazing, the app is super user friendly and it’s honestly made me think a lot about my food choices. Highly recommend if you’re into health, fitness, or just love data like I do!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The glucose monitor comes with a spring loaded device for install on your arm. It is super easy to use and I felt zero pain at all. It seems like it took 24 hours for this to warm up and show any changes to my glucose. After the first day or so I could easily see the changes to my glucose based on what I was eating. Never had any issues with the readings or accessing them. I wore it for about 5 days and it ended up ripping off when I ran into a doorway at the house (not the devices fault). It is very interesting to see this data right on your phone. I’d like to give it a try again soon.
