[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Honestly this product is so cool! As someone who works in healthcare, I am always interested in technology that give me more insight into how my body works. The app paired with the CGM did just that and was such an amazing tool to track how my body responds to food and handles energy throughout the day. The sensor itself was small so it was super discrete under clothes. The app provides a really cool level of data and analysis that made it super easy to understand my glucose changes. Everyone needs to try this!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My father in law really happy when i got this, he really worry about his glucose. He can track his glucose on his phone so he can enjoy his life with this.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really enjoyed using the Lingo Continuous Glucose Monitor. It was fascinating to get real time insight into what is happening inside my body and to see how different foods impacted my glucose levels. Having real time data felt both educational and empowering. Overall, it was a great 14-day experience.
My main feedback is that I wish the monitoring period lasted a bit longer, ideally around 3 weeks. I know there is a 4 week version available for purchase as well, which I’m sure is super helpful, but the 2 week version feels a little short. The first week seems to be more of an adjustment period while the monitor learns your body and routines. Therefore, to me, it felt like the actionable insight came after the initial first week. While you can purchase another monitor following the 2 week period, it seems like it would go through the same first week adjustment period, so a slightly longer version would be more useful.
I also wish it came with a patch or cover for the sensor, preferably a skin tone option. That would help it blend in better and reduce the chances of it snagging on clothing. Removal was actually very easy, but I did have to google how to do so. It would be helpful if there was a quick ‘how to remove’ video in the app available right when the CGM period ended.
Although I received this product for free in exchange for my honest review, I do think the price is fairly reasonable for a short trial. That said, if you plan to continuously repurchase it for several weeks or months, that cost could definitely add up. Overall it was an incredibly insightful experience!!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really liked this glucose sensor; it is easy to apply and use. It is very useful if you want to understand how your body reacts to food without the need to constantly prick yourself -you simply place it on your skin and start measuring your glucose levels in real time
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had high hopes for the Lingo Continuous Glucose Monitor, but unfortunately, it did not meet my expectations. While the application process was simple, I experienced repeated issues during the first few days trying to get it to connect. I frequently received an error stating the bio sensor could not be detected, and had to restart my phone and toggle Bluetooth multiple times before it finally worked. Once connected, it was interesting to see my glucose data, but I found the app lacking clear guidance on how to interpret the readings. There was also very little direction for logging meals, or activity, which made it harder to fully understand the data. Most disappointing was that the bio sensor fell off prematurely (4 days). When I checked it, the needle was bent with dry blood, which was concerning. Overall, this experience left me frustrated and I would not recommend this product, especially considering the cost.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This decice is so easy to set up and honestly I did not hurt at all.The app is very user friendly and it had taught me so much about how foods and exercise affect my glucose levels.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have always been curious if I have low blood sugar or not because I get super shaky and sick sometimes, so I tried this product. I was surprised to see when I felt that way, my blood sugar was actually within normal ranges, so that was interesting. It was also very interesting to see what foods spiked and dropped my blood sugar and I avoided those more. It was incredibly easy and painless to insert- and I’m a huge baby! If I can do it, anyone can. I didn’t notice it was there. The adhesive is incredibly sticky. After about a week it started to itch sometimes, but not bad. Otherwise it wasn’t a bother at all and didn’t get snagged on clothes or anything. The app was super easy to use, anyone can do it. It was really cool to try out!
