Libre

Hi, I have been using the Libre for a few years and not had any problems. Recently I have had 4 sensors which all only show a reading if I scan and are not alarming at all, and have the signal loss symbol in the top left hand corner constantly, has anyone else had this problem?

Libre always replace them, but I don't understand why it keeps happening, and they can give me no explanation for it.
 
Hi and welcome to the forum.

It sounds like it may be due to a recent Operating System update on your phone or perhaps you have added other blue tooth systems to your phone and the Libre one is the weakest and is dropping out.

Do you do automatic updates of your operating system on your phone or do you manually update. I think Abbott sent out advice not to automatically update until they advised people that their system was working with the new OS.
Sometimes shutting the phone right down and restarting it can help or uninstalling the LibreLink app and then reinstalling it. Unfortunately you will lose your date from the LibreLink app if you do the latter but it will still be on LibreView assuming that you have linked LibreView to your LibreLink app and your medical professionals will still have access to all the data in the LibreView site.
