Helpful Healthy Tracking, App Needs Work
on July 19, 2026
Posted by: EmilyT
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Im not a fan of needles so I was worried about attaching the sensor to the back of my arm. But it really just felt like a quick pinch and then it’s totally painless.
The overall data and function is pretty cool, I had never really thought about tracking my glucose before. A few things that weren’t the greatest…
1) For some reason I never got any notifications from the app, despite triple checking that the alerts were on for the app and my phone. It’s hard to get into the habit of opening the app to check it. Not sure if this is standard experience or if something for me just wasn’t working.
2) another downside was that the sensor kept unpairing from my phone, and without any notification to tell me it unpaired I’d go basically all day without realizing it. I’d have to turn my phone off and on, Bluetooth off and on, and do that a couple more times until it finally paired again.
3) I also wish they had an Apple Watch app so that I could check my glucose without having to open my phone.
4) Lastly, the only other downside was that the adhesive around the sensor got pretty dirty so I was excited to finally finish the 2 weeks and take it off.

Overall, I definitely learned a lot tracking my glucose for 2 weeks and I found this sensor to be helpful in understanding my overall health and wellness. I’m glad I gave it a try! Hopefully there will be app improvements soon and I can try it again.

Information to improve health!
on July 18, 2026
Posted by: DevereuxS
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really feel like having more information about your body helps you improve your habits and make positive changes. This is what I really like about this product! I can easily see how the food I eat directly effects my body. The only cons I would say are that you have to have the app open constantly. I have accidentally closed it several times. It’s just habit. Then I wish there was a video showing the application process. It didn’t hurt but it did scare me because it made a loud popping sound when I applied it. A video of the process and what to expect would be so helpful! Overall it’s small and comfortable to wear. It stays on very well!

Seeing my glucose in real time helpful
on July 18, 2026
Posted by: KristinaV
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve really enjoyed using Lingo because it gave me a much better understanding of how my body responds to food and everyday habits and activities. Seeing my glucose levels in real time was honestly eye-opening! I realized that some meals affected me differently than I expected. It absolutely helped me to become more mindful of my choices without feeling restrictive. I also found the sensor comfortable to wear and easy to forget about once it was on! So, it’s been a great tool for learning more about my body instead of guessing what’s going on!

Product fell off early, but enjoyed the data
on July 18, 2026
Posted by: TrinaK
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I thought this product was very interesting! I enjoyed seeing my glucose levels throughout the day. I feel as those they were accurate and informative. The set up and application was extremely easy and pain free. The only problem was that my sensor was supposed to last 2 weeks and feel off after 1 week.

Great insight to your diet
on July 17, 2026
Posted by: LiubovZ
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was my first time using this kind of monitor. It gives amazing insight to your body’s reaction to different food and helps control diet in general. I wouldn’t use it always as I don’t have any medical condition, but it’s great experience for anyone

Great, easy-to-use monitor for workouts, though it struggles with connectivity and shower durability.
on July 16, 2026
Posted by: DaianaR
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been testing the Lingo Continuous Glucose Monitor and overall, I really like it. It was fantastic for monitoring my glucose while I was walking, working out, and going about my day. It was also very easy to apply to my arm. However, I did encounter a few issues. It came off once right after I got out of the shower. Additionally, I experienced some connectivity problems; whenever I lost service for a few minutes, the device had trouble reconnecting once my service was back, and it would randomly lose a signal at other times as well. Despite those connectivity and durability frustrations, it was great for monitoring my levels.

Wasn’t working
on July 16, 2026
Posted by: LauraS
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received complimentary for a honest review . I did not get to fully experience this as I got an error message that my biosensor ended early and I need to replace so mind did not pick up any reading . However the application process of putting this on is very easy and non painfull .
