Read through Juggluco.nl and see the section describing how to calibrate Libre. Never needed it myself but it is there. Also section on Watches. AFAIK you do need your phone in Bluetooth range. Also see GlucoDataHandler in GooglePlay ;)

It is possible to calibrate Libre readings by using an excellent 3rd party app: Juggluco.nl The general difficulty with such calibrations for both Dexcom and Libre is that you are calibrating to single, or a few, fingerpicks that are themselves of questionable accuracy. Juggluco allows you to...

My short acting insulin has gone down from typical 25-30 units/day to 5-6, sometimes Zero! Still maintaining 20 units basal.

When applying, press firmly and hold for 15sec to allow the adhesive time to bond. Also hold hand up to head so the skin on the application site is stretched. Do not use any oil or oily product on application site, wash with Simple soap only, never moisturiser.

Very important to move the insertion location. Very easy to develop a hardened area of skin which will give lower blood flow thus lower readings. Perhaps this is one reason some see the plus as a downgrade. Longer use may same issue with the 2.
