The screen is not like my iPhone but I find if you press it positively rather than jabbing it then it's ok.

I have the sensitivity in screen problem somethings taking 4 and 5 presses

I noticed it when trying to set my Target Range. Up arrows were just not working.. Took about 7+ presses. All other parts of the touch screen work fine. Weird

15:05 2.7
15:16 2.7
15:36 2.6
15:52 2.4
15:59 2.3
16:02 4.7 finger prick

16:34 2.5
17:07 2.8
17:19 2.8
17:47 3.2
17:50 3.2
18:15 2.9
18:50 2.9
19:13 2.9
19:23 3.7 finger prick

The low finger prick reading are due to not me consuming anything but black coffee since the slap up meal I had last night :wacky:

I bought a phone sock for mine.

Keep getting tempted to put the sensor on tonight but had already decided I would start on Saturday morning, as I will always be at home on a Saturday morning so no problems on change over days.... It's hard to resist though!

Just catching up with everyone's experiences today, it's showing I'm in a permanent hypo, levels won't go up above 3.9 - tried 2 other meters and they're both ranging between 5.2, and 6.4. Hopefully by tomorrow the sensor will have settled down.

Hi

I think i must be lucky as my libre has been with 1.0 of my accucheck mobile with 4 checks over the last 5 hrs concidring the time delay between blood and cell fluid and this being day one I hope it will get even closer.

If the sensor can't be trusted on the first day then it'll be a strip day for me.
