apple earpods and iPod problem

Hello listers All of a sudden I get the problem that while I am listening to music the earpods disconnect and sometimes after a while they connect again but most of the time I have to switch the iPod off and on again. The charge of the earpod batteries shows more than 50% so it is not a battery

Re: Diabetic app question

I would like some clarification..It is my understanding that the Freestyle Libre scanner/reader is needed. The scanner reads the blood glucose level from the sensor & the result is transmitted to the iPhone app via bluetooth. Hopefully, someone who uses the Freestyle Libre will chime in.

Donna No, the scanner is only necessary if you do not have an iPhone 7 or later. The iPhone 7 and later have the NFC sensor built-in that can read the sensors in the patches. Richard The most common way people give up their power is by thinking they don't have any." -- Alice Walker On Feb
