Flawed Design – FreeStyle Libre 2 - US Review

The ability to get glucose readings on the iPhone from the sensor is great. However, there is a hard coded alarm at 55 mg/dcl that goes off whenever glucose drops below this level, even if you’ve turned off alarms and notifications. It’s insane. It goes off in meetings, quiet places, everywhere. And you can’t turn it off! So it keeps going off. Totally impractical. All they need to do is allow the user to turn off that alarm. We can check our readings ourselves to ensure we aren’t at a dangerous level.
