[QUOTE="PIPPO_PIPPI, post: 1731466, member: 322947"] I agree, Abbott should include this in its App, but being a big company its times are longer than the small companies’ ones. I'm sure that they are studying a Bluetooth device that will surely be smarter than the one I use now, but probably it's still on the drawing boards, while BlueReader, Blucon and (I think) DexCom are working now (and very well, as in my experience). I disagree about Freestyle unreliability, because last summer debacle with 6 sensors OFF was due to external events, so the real number is 5 over 31, not so bad. Moreover, and this is very important IMO, as you know Abbott is ready to substitute all the unreliable stuff, so no money lost by the users. But please give a second look to the advantages of Libre plus BlueTooth transmitter (any!). Have you ever gone in deep nightly hypoglycemia? I hope not for your safe, but if yes, would have not been wonderful if someone or something could wake you before reaching coma? It happened me many times, as I told, and I bless my fortune to be still alive with the possibility to use now such devices, that allow me to sleep safely. I think in the world actually only a few hundred people use Bluetooth transmitters to connect their FGM to SmartPhone or Smartwatch, but I’m sure that in the future the number will increase exponentially. Believe me. All this, obviously, waiting for new outstanding technologies that are just round the corner, and will surprise us in a few years. Bye. Pippo :) [/QUOTE]
