There’s only really one libre system available in the Uk, the libre 2. Libre3 is difficult to obtain funding for. You can check compatibility on their website or by using the free trial.

Hello,
If using the Libre 2? I’ve used older phones not named on the Abbot site for compatibility. No issues if just scanning. (Though yours seems to be released only last year?)
Most modern phones have NFC. Just finding the “sweet spot” for the receiver aerial?

That's my understanding. And Google will tell you where the aerial is, eventually.
For what little it's worth, I always found it a bit annoying on my Pixel 2, but on the new Pixel 6a the middle of the back works and is easy.
(On iPhones it's apparently the top edge (also quite easy). I guess Apple is fairly clear on where it is because it's what's used for Apple Pay, which they very much want people to use.)
