[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was very easy and painless to put on. It was nice to get a glimpse of how my eating habits effect my glucose levels. Setup was extremely easy as well.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was a bit skeptical but interested in tracking my blood sugar and seeing if I could tie chronic headaches to any blood sugar drops and surges. The application was easy—although the package didn’t come with the alcohol wipe, so I had to dig around for one. Otherwise, the details were included in the package and walked through on the app. There were no problems connecting the biosensor with the app, and once inserted, after the initial sting of the needle, the biosensor was comfortable and I didn’t feel it on most days. Even laying it on it at night felt fine.
The app was pretty easy to use and had some explainer videos, which helped me to make sense of the numbers. I only lost connection once midway through the 14-day period and it restored itself shortly after.
I thought the insights into my blood sugar and the ability to track food, exercise and stress were interesting. The application also provided challenges to keep me more engaged. I’m not sure I ended up learning anything groundbreaking, but it helped me to be really perceptive and look deeper into what I was eating and doing.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been wanting to try a glucose monitor to just get more data about my health. The insertion of the device is very easy, and the app is really helpful to use. I will say my only ding is that the device is quite big, and I wish there was a way to wear this more discretely. As a woman with small arms, the device takes up significantly more space than the men they used to do visualize the installation demonstration.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] An easy way to keep track of my glucose during the day, with alerts and easy maintenance. It helps me to take control of my eating habits by providing easy meals recipes.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As someone who’s never monitored their glucose, this was such an interesting way to do it. The application was a little intimidating at first when seeing the needle, but it ended up being painless once applied. The monitor itself didn’t irritate my skin and was easy to remove. The app that goes along with the monitor tracks what you eat and assigns points based on those items. I thought that it was pretty cool to see how certain foods affect your blood glucose levels, especially since this is something I don’t think about on a daily basis.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] A fun way to find out how what you eat effects your body, mood, energy, and sleep. Setup is as simple as downloading and app and pressing the applicator on your arm. The instructions are easy to follow and the app offers a lot of tips and insights to your managing your glucose. You can watch how food and drinks affect your body in real time. I figured out why I keep waking up throughout the night because of glucose spikes from eating too late in the evening. So I’ve cut myself off at an earlier time and have been sleeping noticeable better. A well known author and podcaster says everyone should try monitoring glucose at least once just to get a better understanding of your body and its relationship to certain types of foods and I couldn’t agree more.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great opportunity to try this sensor. If you have high sugar level you have to control yourself and this glucose sensor is a bid helper here!! You can see the data on the app in real-time. Love it
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Interesting device with insights into what lowers or spikes your glucose. The application was very easy and painless (though the needle at first seems scary but you really don’t notice it at all on setup). The local area of my arm felt a bit uncomfortable for the first two days and then it fades away and you don’t notice it. The app is very easy to use and if you carefully log in activities or food you had it helps you identify patterns.
