my first hello . Im not too up on chatting etc .
My current interest is in getting myself prepared for a Freestyle Libre as at last our local health authority has agreed to fund these on the N.H.S.
I had myself on the Abbots registration page to self fund one but been waiting and waiting to no avail.

I have read a few things about getting miomio to allow a full time read out on a smart watch etc
So i will be interested in the most suitable smart watch and what apps to download

thank Geoff
 
Welcome to the forum. Sadly in my area I don't qualify, so can't help with the libre,but I do know people on the forum do link up the two.
 
Don’t dive in to self fund, because Abbott are almost ready to release Libre 2, which has Bluetooth capability. (Its the same price). When that appears, any smartwatch with Bluetooth will do. I happen to have an Apple Series 4, but you can get a watch less then half that price that should work just fine.
 
thanks i will bear that in mind . i have an appointment with the consultant in a weeks time so that,s one question i will ask is is a Libre 2 ? that they are issuing
