I'm using the omnipod 5 pump with the freestyle Libre + 2 and want to get a smart watch that works well. Can anyone recommend a good smart watch that works well with these devices?
 
I'm guessing that there's a lack of answers because this is hard. Libre can only send automatic readings to one device, and that will be the omnipod. And Omnipod won't talk to anything.

Yes, this isn't great. And the makers of Omnipod seem to have no interest in improving their software to make things like this possible, or indeed listening to their end users at all. No smart watch support isn't top of my list, but it's quite high.

Gripe 2 : Why can't we have the current reading available on the lock screen of the device without needing a PIN? (means you need to take gloves off to see, and is hard in wet conditions).

Gripe 3 : Why isn't the device backed up? If you lose it or it dies, you need to start from scratch with a new one, and all the learning it's done over the past months is gone.

Gripe 4 : Activity mode is useless. Can we have pause support in auto mode to save about a million button presses?

Gripe 4a : Can we turn automatic mode back on from pause in one go, rather than having to unpause then switch?

Gripe 5 : Can we have a smaller device? (which is of course related to the starting point of this conversation)

Any others?
 
(maybe back to the old days of one of the devices which sat on top of the libre, read NFC and broadcast to phone on bluetooth to xdrip+?)

I have the Libre 2 + it works with mobile and my watch bothered Samsungs any changes reported on the also goes to my watch as well as my mobile.
This probably due the fact are a lot older watch is a 6 and mobile a S22 Ultra both of which work great for me.
Hope is of some use for you.
