[QUOTE="RSJ1301, post: 2025596, member: 193030"] I got the notification but Spike is still working for me; I tried Tomato but the alarms were irritating and the accuracy seemed way out (making the alarms even more irritating). I’ll see how long the Spike limps along for... from what I’ve read above I don’t want to compromise my iPhone security any more than I have done already with app center. I’ve now got the Libre on prescription so there’s no sense for me to switch back to the Dexcom. If Spike stops working I may just go back to 100% scanning, I can’t say I’ve been wholly impressed with the accuracy, even calibrating twice a day. It’s great having my BG on my watch though; at least I can keep an eye on trends whilst I’m at work and react appropriately. (And usually work is the only place I consistently carry my phone around with me!) When I’m out running it’s not reliable enough, though (and I struggle to read the Spike Sport app on my Garmin); I’ve found a neat little wrist pouch that holds the Libre reader and its presence on my wrist is a good reminder to scan on long runs!
