Easy to set up, but uncomfortable
on September 25, 2026
Posted by: AmandaC
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The product was very easy to set up, I do wish it came with an alcohol wipe though. It was painful to wear but I think that may have been how it was applied, I think it went into the muscle too much based on placement. Ended up having to take it off after just a couple days because it was too painful. The sensor also didn’t pick up glucose level during activity which was frustrating as that was some of the insight I wanted. I overall would not purchase this product unfortunately. But again, it may just be a placement issue.

Easy to use

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is not my first glucose monitor I’ve used, but it’s definitely my favorite so far. I love that it does not alarm constantly as it calibrates. I also love you can log your foods so you can see what foods affect your blood sugar. It is easy to apply to your body and wears well. You won’t even know you are wearing it as it is very discreet. Other brands I’ve used last for 10 days, but this lasts 2 weeks. And removal is a snap. And the app is very easy to navigate. I highly recommend.

Good health insights

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product really gave me a new understanding about my glucose! As someone who is cautious of what they eat it was nice to determine sugar spikes, however I do feel like it may have been a little inaccurate at times. Such as it saying my sugar was extremely low yet I felt totally fine. Take results with a grain of salt and always consult a doctor if you have concerns!

The app is WONDERFUL
on September 22, 2026
Posted by: KylieM
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Honestly I am super super impressed with this product! Instructions on how to put on the device and use of the app is wonderful!!! I love the app usage and how you can log anything you want and you can keep track of everything you need! Insertion did not hurt and the photo you see is the device after it’s been on for 2 weeks. It did not irritate my skin and I did not fear it falling off. I showered with it I slept in it and I did not take any special care to keep it attached. I think my only complaint is that it get disconnected from my phone ALOT it’s pretty easy to get reconnected but it was really annoying when I wanted a quick glance at my numbers but had to play with it to get it to reconnect. Other than that I am really impressed

Great product and easy to apply

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Lingo was way easier to put on then I expected! I was so nervous about the pain, but it was virtually painless. I felt silly after for being so nervous! It was comfortable to keep on, but eventually the stickiness wore off and it did pull off before the 2 weeks was done. The app was easy to use and I enjoyed seeing the data collected. I’d be interested in doing it again and using it for a longer period of time. For the data collected I think it’s worth the price!

Easier to use than expected

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have a history of diabetes in my family, so I thought it wouldn’t hurt to take the time to measure my blood sugar levels. It was a nice comfort to see I’m within normal ranges. The app is extremely easy to use. My favorite part was how it shows you step by step how to set up the monitor. You will have no problem getting things set up!

Pretty good

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been wanting to try a CGM, but I didnt even know where to start. I was very excited to try this device. You need the app. Its fairly simple to use. You can joirnal your food. You have to enter what you ate, stressful happy or a moment of emotional change, and what time so you can see what causes spikes. I found it very helpful in understand how certain food affects me. Stress would also cause extreme spikes. The part that stays on your arm. Theres a thin, small guage needle that stays in your skin. It wasnt uncomfortable. But I was extra aware of not bumping into anything. If I layed on it or leaned on it it was a little uncomfortable. The adhesive part only last 1 wk then began loosening. I used KT tape to keep it from falling out/off. All in all it a very useful device to add to your daily health journey. Ive purchased another two weeks.

Better options available
on September 16, 2026

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'd recommend 3 other CGMs before I recommend this one. First thing, it doesn't stay on for a full 2 weeks if you live anywhere humid or warm. It only works if you leave the app open constantly and it will disconnect whenever your phone updates, restarts, or you have to use airplane mode. I could never get any alerts when my glucose dropped. Most any american health insurance will cover most of the cost of a much better monitor.
