Yes, the app needs access to NFC which requires an iPhone 7 or newer. It is only from the iPhone 7 that apple let some third-party apps to use NFC. On earlier iPhones can only use NFC for Apple pay.

Cheers,
Brett.

Hello everyone,

Well I do not have this unit yeah, I looked at the link that was given for the US version of the app. It states that this app uses specific features, this device does not offer. I’m not sure what in the world that means? I am using an iPhone S-6, would the latest update.
Does anyone have any idea what that could mean?

Thank you,

Terri

Hello,
I just finished up setting the app up. I am so glad the link was given for the US store. It was a breeze to set up with my iPhone. The app works great. I will be using my phone from now on to scan my sensor.

I understand that here in Canada the app is available and the reader is accessible using Iphone 7 and greater. The app uses NRC technology to read the sensor data using voice over to verbalize it for us.
I will be trying the sensor as soon as I upgrade my phone, probably this fall.

Hello,

I too am waiting for the release of the Freestyle LibreLink app in the US App Store. I currently am using the TapTapSee application to capture a image of the screen and read the bg reading to me. This works well enough for now but it will be nice to have the app on the phone with the Voice Alerts active. This feature is used to read the current scanned blood sugar. It will also announce the direction such as slowly falling, raising slowly, etc. From what I have read on some of the Diabetes forums the app is fully accessible with VoiceOver and it is pretty simple to use. Here’s to hoping!

Hello,
Right now the apps for either platform are not in the US right now. I am using the Libre now however. I use the Envision AI app on my phone to read the screen of the Libre meter. It works quite well. Seeing AI does work but not quite as well as Envision. The envision app does cost. It is $4.99 a month, $24.99 for six months or $40 a year. There is also a one time purchase of $199 for a lifetime subscription to the app.

Hi,
there is a librelink app for the freestyle Libre you would need to check if it's released in your country. If it is the librelink app can be used to start and read the sensor. I'm currently using mine with Android and I'm due to start a new sensor in about 5 days, so I can test the iPhone accessibility if you can wait till then.
Cheers,
Brett.

 Hello everyone,

Does anyone know anything regarding the freestyle libre for diabetes? How will it work with an iPhone? You are using an app if there is one? Or you thinking something like seeing AI?

If anyone can tell me anything, I would really appreciate it.

Thank you,

Terri
