Ah. ****. I thought I was golden as I had managed to install the app on my phone but today I've just applied a new sensor and I too am getting the "Incompatible Sensor" message when trying to add it to the iPhone. I'm very disappointed. When I called Mediray last week, they said it would be...

Yeah, I'm pretty sure. It had two options when first setting it up: mmol/L and mg/dL. I can't change it now though, it says "Your country is United Kingdom. Your unit of measurement is mmol/L. I haven't actually used it yet as I need to wait another 7 days before my current sensor runs out. To...

Hi there. It was the UK version that I was using - I'm not sure if it's been released anywhere else?

It asks you want measurement you want to use when setting it up. :)

Yes, functionality would be the same on an iPhone as it is an Android... so no alerts sorry.

Great news.............. but for me: "This product is not available in your country" Ahhhhhhhhh

Excellent, thanks @lou258, that is great news!

Any updates for iOS?

Hi @steamerpoint I agree with all your points except for a couple. I find the libre doesn't stick to me very well and have lost multiple after a week - but maybe that's the under the arm location which I think is a terrible place to put it. Last time I put it on, I also added about a 4 inch...

There you go, you learn something new every day. It's still quite expensive in my country though at $100 per week at the advertised life length. If we can push the sensor from 6 days out to 12, then it's looking more economical. Do you know how likely that is? Thanks for that. Unfortunately the...

OK, I didn't chose my words very accurately, I just couldn't think of a word that means "Should not consider an option until available"

Yes it does... But until it hits the market, it's just rumor. BTW: It was about a year ago that I heard this info...

You are most welcome. FYI: I've just updated it, thought of another reason not to use Libre. :-)

I agree but, what would be even better, is having functionality such as "Alert once" or a "sleep" function (ie, alert again in X minutes) or maybe an "acknowledgment" button with alerts. I'm sure it's not too hard to do.... currently (as you say in another post) you can either have the alerts on...

Hi @TheBigNewt , A Dexcom rep also told me that Dexcom was partnering with Google to make a smaller, cheaper and sensor/transmitter combined sensor. That would be exciting and I would seriously consider going back to Dexcom when/if this happens. At the very least, hopefully having both Libre and...

Hi @Mr_Pot , you are correct that the battery in the Dexcom is not rechargeable and this is one of my complaints about the cost of the Dexcom - non-rechargeable batteries in their transmitters. Put rechargeable batteries in and that would half the cost of a Dexcom. Some people do replace the...

@tim200s That's all good. Two reasons I never even considered the G4. 1. Another $1,000 for another receiver for Dexcom - Why would you do it. 2. Really don't want to carry around another device! But if you did really like a batman type utility belt, Libre's reader, which is also the finger...

I just found this article after posting this information on another topic. my information is also valid here, so here goes. I'm surprised that Dexcom is cheaper than the Libre, it's not where I'm from... Pretty much everything that people said regarding the Dexcom vs Libre is true, but here's a...

I realize this post is getting a bit old, but here's my 2cents worth for google searchers who found the page like I did. Pretty much everything that people said regarding the Dexcom vs Libre is true, but here's a couple of reasons why Libre is better for me that Dexcom. Background: I've been...
