Flash glucose monitoring has revolutionized diabetes management, and the FreeStyle LibreLink app is at the forefront of this innovation. Designed for use with the FreeStyle Libre and FreeStyle Libre 2 system sensors, this app allows you to monitor your glucose levels by simply scanning the sensor with your smartphone. If you're using the FreeStyle Libre 2 system sensors, you can also receive alerts when your glucose levels are too low or too high, enhancing your ability to manage your condition effectively.
With the FreeStyle LibreLink app, you have access to a wealth of information that can help you better manage your diabetes. Here's what you can do:
- View your current glucose readings, trends, and the history of your glucose measurements.
- Receive alerts for low or high glucose levels when using FreeStyle Libre 2 system sensors.
- Access detailed reports such as Time in Target Range and Daily Profiles to track your progress.
- Share access to your data with your healthcare provider and family members for better support and care.
When using the app, it's important to understand how it interacts with the sensor. Signals can be sent either to the FreeStyle Libre 2 scanner or to your phone, but not to both simultaneously. To receive signals on your phone, you need to activate the sensor through the app. Conversely, to receive signals on the FreeStyle Libre 2 scanner, you must activate the sensor using the scanner. If the sensor is activated using a scanner, you can still scan it with your phone. However, please note that the app and scanner do not communicate with each other. To ensure you have complete data for your reports, you should scan the sensor with your chosen device every 8 hours. For a comprehensive view of your data from all devices, you can visit LibreView.com.
The FreeStyle LibreLink app is specifically designed to measure glucose levels in patients with diabetes when used in conjunction with a compatible sensor. For detailed instructions on using the app, please refer to the manual accessible through the app itself. If you need a printed copy, you can contact Abbott Diabetes Care Customer Service. Always consult your healthcare professional to ensure this product is suitable for your needs and to discuss any questions about using this product for treatment decisions.

It's important to note that when using the FreeStyle LibreLink app, you should also have access to a traditional blood glucose monitoring system, as the app itself does not come with one. Additionally, the signals you receive from the app do not contain glucose readings; you must perform a sensor scan to check your glucose levels. To utilize FreeStyle LibreLink and LibreLinkUp, registration with LibreView is required.
