MiaoMiao - which is the best app to use?

[LauraR88]

I have just got my MiaoMiao and was wondering what app is the best to use along side it? I use a iPhone and Apple Watch if that helps.

Thanks in advance for any help anyone can give me

Spike is the best on iOS, xdrip + or Glimp on Android.

I have just been advised that Spike was pulled last month but brought back and you now have to pay £99 a year anyone know if this is correct?

No, you can still do it on a free Apple account - the app itself is and always will be free. You just need to plug your phone into your computer once a week to “re-sign” the app, as it’s unofficial. Go to Spike-App.com and choose the “semi-manual” install method.

I can’t get on with Android. I hate the user interface, I have to use one for my first responder volunteering, and it’s HORRIBLE. But that’s just me My teenage son loves his Android phone.

That’s brilliant, you just made my day!! I have been looking forward to it arriving and using it, only to be told it would cost £99 a year I don’t mind plugging it in once a week thank you

I have just spent a week trying to load the spike app onto my iPhone 11 Pro using an Apple Mac and after several attempts I have given up. I will just have to find another app to read my new Miao Miao 2 which is still in the box unused a week later! Everyone on here says that the spike app is best but is it so much better than the tomato app that it’s worth all the hours of work to get it loaded onto your phone?
