[QUOTE="Jaylee, post: 2459948, member: 101136"] That is correct. Initially, I had the Libre 1 scanned by the bridge, sent to the watch & the watch to the phone. Or if I wasn't using the watch.? Tether the bridge to the phone. Unfortunaly, Abbott's Libre 2 has some new quirky algorithm. I had to set up new firmware on my watch to tether a bridge device that could handle the L2 algorithm in order to continue using it. But it works flawlessly as a stand alone watch. Technically I no longer need my phone. The watch will discreetly vibrate any alarms.. Having said that. In my experience the Libre 2 is reasonably on the ball for me. Pretty much without fail letting me know I'm low 5to10 minutes before I feel it.. Handy curtailing with a preempted treatment anything too agressive or overwhelming happening on the hypo front. There have since been other watches on the market that will do the same stand alone function similar to mine. Others need tethering as a "wearable" to a phone..? I'm hoping there will be Apple Watch users that can come along & help you on that front.? [/QUOTE]
