Try quitting the glimp app and starting it again.It's been stuck on the same reading for hours,is it broken already??? Does it need a reset? If it does,how do I do it?

I calibrate on a morning when the arrow is straight, think I may try calibrate twice a day to see if that helpsSounds like your calibration is out in xDrip @Gaz-M. Have you given it any calibration readings manually or is it configured to take them automatically (I leave mine on auto)? I'm using Blucon but it should behave similarly to MiaoMiao in xDrip.
If the calibration has gone wonky on a sensor in xDrip, it can be reset as helpfully pointed out to me by @Scott-C, by going to 'Stop Sensor' and then choosing the option to only reset the calibration. If you get stuck I'll try and help a bit more but excuse my brevity for now as I'm posting on my phone.
I am finding I have kind of the opposite problem - my Libre reads progressively lower and lower than xDrip and fingerpricks but once it's been calibrated xDrip isn't far away from fingerpricks unless I'm on the move up or down (due to Libre's delay).
1) yes, the MiaoMiao works fine with European 14 day sensors, it’s the change on the US that’s caused the problems.Hi there, I just registered myself so I could ask the op or anyone else who might know the answer to a few questions:
1. Are you using 14 day sensor? I'm from Portugal and here we only use 14 day sensors. I'm a bit afraid to order the MiaoMiao since I've read on their official fb group that the latest 14 day sensors in the USA (only the 10 day) doesn't work with MM.
2. I currently have the Spike app installed on my iPhone X and just took a look around the settings and so on to get more familiar with it. I've been using the LibreLink with LibreView online with my Libre and it works flawlessly as expected, giving a lot of stats and so. My doctor usually navigates between 1 month averages and looks at the patterns given by the app. The Spike doesn't seem to have something like that, only the main graph which you can navigate right?
3. What about the continuous monitoring during the day/night. Have you found the alerts useful and accurate? Did you receive alerts when you're getting high/lows and it actually matches?
4. Abbott just released a teaser a month ago announcing FreeStyle Libre 2 which will offer connection by bluetooth to provide alerts (lows, highs I suppose) and they're telling that it will might be available soon. Still don't know when. This could be the perfect solution tho (no bulky devices on the arm).
5. Are you able to both use Spike and LibreLink at the same time?
I was right about to purchase it from the site, however, I stepped back due to this questions that I still need to find the answer.
Thank you very much for your time.

The only way to buy is to order it direct from the manufacturer - my referral link takes you straight there. Mine came from China to the U.K. in ten days.Hello again, I would like to kindly thank you for your fast reply. I will order then and give it a try.
Could you tell me what’s the fastest way to get it? Does the Miao Miao oficial website delivers it fast? Or should I pick another option?
Plus, what is that calibration that you talk about? What actually it does? And how it works?
I’m not a pump user but I have 6.0% A1C only by eating well and using libre, but I know that if I could be alerted by highs or lows in time, I could avoid that and make it to 5.5-6.0% without lows.

To calibrate, you do a blood test and enter the value into the app that you’re using with the MiaoMiao - Spike on iPhone; xdrip on Android. It then adjusts the values you see to match that. I calibrate maybe once every two days.
But won’t it mess with the libre delay?
