[QUOTE="Anita_F, post: 2503202, member: 336018"] I also had the same issues with two sensors in a row too started the sensors Libra 2 on my iPhone as stated following all directions and my app said that I had to start my sensor on my i phone to make it able to have alarms …… I found it really frustrating began to wonder if I was going crazy as I always use my i phone to start the sensors not my blue reader . However I think we should be able to use the reader along side the i phone as our phones can run out of battery and then you need to take a whole blood test to find out what your blood sugar is doing it would be more practical to have both working properly . I am an older lady and have been using the libra sensors since they were first brought out self funded until nice put them on prescription. I think that these teething issues should have been fixed by now at present with my current sensor I find that it won’t always talk to my phone . I always carry my phone in my pocket in range of my sensor and charges it each night to stop any issues occurring. When I sleep my phone is on charge next to my bed about 2 feet away from the sensor on my arm . It still often won’t register any readings when it’s supposed to . I am awake often as my mum has dementia and her alarm goes off and I check her . At the same time I take a reading scanning my sensor , because the. Sensor hasn’t worked properly I suddenly get a high blood sugar warning a minute after which is annoying . I would have taken the insulin earlier to counter act the rise in blood sugar if the app was communicating properly . It’s not us it’s the tech that has the issues not sure what can be done about this problem I think out of the last half dozen sensors I’ve had at least 1/2 of them not communicating with my phone correctly .
