Libre 2 and activity tracker

Hi

Desperately seeking a way to get Libre 2 info on an activity tracker/fitness band. I've spent hours searching and have found some info about smartwatches, but not trackers. I don't want to give up wearing a normal and don't want to wear two (that would be a bit odd!) so a tracker would be a good solution but I just can't find a way to do it.

Any suggestions would be very gratefully received.

Thanks very much... Willa
 
It is some time since I used both but I could get Libre readings on my MiiBand with xDrip+.
But the solution will depend on what activity tracker and phone you use.

The best suggestion I could give would be to contact free style support and ask then what to do.
I believe that they would have all the latest info and would be able to direct you on what to do to add it on maybe?
 
And kinda on that type of note,, I too have a question on the Libre 2 sensors from Free Style .
I have Arthritis in my hands and am having trouble opening up the sensor applicator when I get ready to change out my sensor.
I wanted to find out if anyone else has had a problem opening up the Libre or Libre 2 sensor applicators ?????
I have spoken to support about this but to no avile. anyone else having issues or is it just me ???????

Have you considered using that aid shaped like scissors which is used to help open jar lids? Or this.

It's impossible with the official app, you'll need third party apps like DiaBox or xDrip to do this.
Abbott doesn't approve of those unofficial apps so they won't be helpful on this one.
 
When I was using Libre I used a piece of 'rubber type material' that you get to stop plates sliding off a tray. You can also buy a roll of it on Amazon etc. Useful to open jars etc.
