Review: Stop! Don’t buy! It does not work. - The readings are constantly below that of a glucometer by atleast 40-50 points. It’s dangerous to mislead diabetic patients. We bought this sensor when my mom had a heart surgery and we needed to monitor her blood glucose levels constantly, to use with the Libre link app on android phone. But even after 3-4 days of using the sensor, the readings never stabilized. They are always lower by 40 -50 points. Initially we thought the readings were correct, but when we cross checked with our glicometer, they were way off. This can be dangerous for diabetic patients who think that their numbers are normal. When we reached out to the Abbott customer care, they replaced it saying it’s defective but the second one was the same. We have not seen even one reading match with our glucometers. I can understand a difference of + or- 10 points but what we were seeing was highly misleading. When we asked for a refund they said they will not refund. Also, please note this thing works only for 14 days annd they have an 3 day stabilization period! Adding to that the price is outrageous for this product with such bad performance. It’s outright cheating!
Review: The Glucose Sensor needs replacement - The sensor is not getting activated and asking to replace the sensor. Photo shared. Please replace the sensor. For the first time I have got a Thailand made sensor. May be that is the reason.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Spend 5000 every 14 days??**
A: Yes, it is too expensive. If Abbott makes it available at affordable price, their business will grow multifold in India.
Wait for a year, smart watch can measure blood glucose continuously

**Q: Reader gave wrong reading of 53 for 6 readings. Now it says sensor is not working, and should be replaced. Will you replace the faulty sensor?**
A: I had faced a similar problem and the sensor had stopped working after 11-12 days and it also came off all by itself.

When I raised a complaint they said that the reader I have was purchased from Singapore and the patches are being bought from Amazon India. Hence they cannot replace the sensors.

I'm totally surprised as the reader registers the sensor and it takes one hour to match up with the sensor. If both are not compatible it should nor register or acknowledge the sensor at the first place.

We need to take up the matter with Amazon and Abbott.

**Q: How many sensors do we have in one box?**
A: One

**Q: Is it possible to use this sensor with freestyle libre mobile app**
A: No.
