Hi, what patch are you going to be trying out?? I presume its the Freestyle Libre??
Which one have you got thou?I’m really not sure this is all new to me I have been reading u all have been using one and just need help to set mine up
Which one have you got thou?
Right got you. I use the LibreLink app on my phone.
You install the sensor (instructions in the box and on YouTube) and scan the sensor with your phone (app opend up )
What smartphone do you have?

What works with the spike app mate
Hi, BrixtonType1, I'll tag @Mel dCP as she uses Spike, along with a MiaoMiao transmitter and libre.
The arrangement is you'll have the libre sensor on your arm, then you put a separate transmitter on top of it, either a blucon from Ambrosia Systems for £65 to £100, or a MiaoMiao for about £150, and then the transmitter sends the 5 minute readings to Spike.
If you just want to manually scan the sensor with the phone instead of using a transmitter to do it automatically, I'm not sure Spike can be used for that - it was designed to be used with a transmitter, not for manual scanning.
Ok thanks you explained it best for me
Sorry @BrixtonType1 I got that totally wrong. Don't know what I was thinking about....
