Issue with Libre - blank screen


This worked Thankyou
 
Thank you, I am back up and running again
 
A fantastic tip. Recently diagnosed so not familiar with everything yet. Just downloaded Shuggah and appears to be working fine. Luckily I only changed the sensor this week so hopefully Abbott have their act together by then.
this shuggah app works brilliant ive just download it and works looks good also so all diabetics dont need to panic with freestyle app being broken hope this helps everyone
 
Same here I am 72 live on my own manage my diabetes well but I am technically illiterate so have no idea what to do now ... Will it return to normal or is the info retained lost now luckily my finger pricker is still around so can still keep an eye on bs levels
 
Abbott have updated the website now with the fix. You have to delete the app and reinstall. Useful video from Abbott here. Although you will lose all of the data logs on the app, it is still available in the Libreview so your hospital and yourself can view the history online instead.

The app appears to have been updated to continuously read Blood Glucose without having to scan so not a bad update in the end, but shame it caused so many problems!

 
It’s garmin connect you need to download
Then need to pair the watch to your phone (I’m on iphone)
The notifications from shugar should then come through automatically
Good luck
hi what is shugar? i dont use it i use libre app? Is there a reason why you use shugar? I am happy to use it but interested in knowing a little more about it? Thanks
 
Hi, I’ve got that. How do you rectify this issue or when will it be resolved? I live on my own and am currently having a hypo so don’t know what to do
I have downloaded the Shuggah App. Once downloaded you can change the readings to mmol/L in its settings. Works fine but won’t be able to share info with GP
 
I’ve downloaded the Shuggah app. Free on App Store. When you’ve downloaded you can change readings to mmol/L in the settings. Brilliant app. No need to scan it scans you constantly and just open the app to see the graph.
 
Has anyone tried this and it’s not worked. I’m not the best with apps and mobiles. Managed to get Shuggar working last night with a big sigh of relief. Only diagnosed a few months ago at age 56 so everything is still very new and a little scary. Will I lose that if I reactivate Bluetooth on the libre link app when I try reinstall or can I switch off Bluetooth on Shuggar and then just switch it back on again if I can’t get Libre reinstalled following the instructions. Keen to get Libre back up and working but don’t want to risk having neither. Any help from those who are little more savvy gratefully appreciated.
 
Have the same problem worked first thing at 7 am since then nothing blank screen called but they said it could be over 2hrs on hold gave up

Have you followed the instructions in the video above?
(See comment #145 for the last time it was posted.)
 

Thanks for the advice!!! It worked for me!!
 
Many thanks to all those people who have drawn attention to the Shuggah app. I have downloaded it and although it tells me I have tens of readings I can’t find them anywhere. When I click on Home I can see the TIR, high/low, average HbA1c, CV and Today pie chart, but I can’t find any actual readings and there’s nothing in the graph chart. What am I doing wrong?
 
i had the same issue, this worked for me -

Just downloaded it this morning when the libre app wasn’t working, now using both
Shugar sends a reading to my iPhone & smart watch every minute & can be seen on the screens without having to open the app

when you downloaded the app what did you do next to link it etc
do you have a sort of walk through of what you did

thanks
