    I've heard that they don't include the wipes because of some strange rules in the EU. And one WARNING for all who will use their own disinfectant: don't use the regular one from the pharmacy. Most of them have oils in it to protect the skin from drying out. But oil will destroy the glue in the sensor and it will fall off after a few hours. You need to buy pure propanol without any additional ingredients.

Other problem actually i can not start a new sensor. I tried 4 different pieces and after initial scanning it turned back and wanted to scan a new one. i reprted this to Abbott and they send me 4 new ones. Before it worked flawless.

    That is exciting news and I look forward to your full review! I've been using Dexcom CGMs for 10 years now and it has been a real leap forward in my Diabetic care but surprisingly but there has only been minor changes from the G4 to G6 in those years. Meanwhile the competition has caught up and could even surpass them. The G7 sounds like it could be their first big improvement since the original G4 but there are rumors it won't have a 14 day sensor life and no direct to iWatch feature at the release to match the Libre 3. This to me is a show stopper and they could loose out big to the Libre 3. However the real CGM killer device to watch is the strong rumor of a iWatch with a built-in non-evasive optical blood glucose sensor, which sounds like it could be available next year?!

    My issue with Libre product is I've always had issues with the glue on the sensors... at least 50% of censors only stick on my skin for a week, instead of staying there for two weeks. I can't use extra skin glue or those extra bandaids/bandages that wrap around the sensor. I get skin rash from those. I do make sure to clean the skin, use an alcohol swab, let it dry, etc. I also do not use skin moisturizers. I spoke to my diabetic instructor and they do not understand why it does that.
    I am now doing a trial for Dexcom 6. I like it so far because of the continuous reading... my only issue is the options for alarms... the sounds are quite loud and not many options for configuration... so I always feel like I am going to have a heart attack at night when it wakes me in the middle of the night for a low or a high reading.

So, how far can I get from the cell phone and still have the app and sensor integrate? On the Libre 2, the limit was 20 feet, which I do not feel is far enough. So I have to carry my Libre 2 reader almost everywhere I go. Fortunately, the reader holds 8 hours of data for the 2, and I can scan later and get all the data.

      All you need is a prescription from your doctor for the version of Libre you want to use (US 14-day or US Libre 2). You can then purchase it at your pharmacy of choice. I had to do this very thing because my insurance wouldn't cover any of the cost.
      For the US 14-day, you can use either the dedicated reader to scan the sensor, your phone (with the correct version of the Libre app), or both (some people benefit from being able to use both).
      If you choose the US Libre 2, the phone app is an option *only* if you have an iPhone. If you have an Android phone, then your only option for now is the Libre 2 dedicated reader. If you ask for a prescription for the Libre 2 sensor, *and* you have an Android phone, make certain that your doctor writes a prescription for the *Libre 2* reader. The LIbre 14-day reader and the Libre 2 reader ARE NOT interchangeable.

Their reader doesn’t allow you to do anywhere near as much as the app. Apple iOS was updated last week and that killed my ability to use the sensor and I had to throw it out because you can’t use the phone app and reader on the same sensor. That was $65 I had to put in the garbage. So you see how little they care. Plus the fact that iOS 15 will be released very soon and it doesn’t appear that Abbott will be ready for that either.

    Thanks for this great video. I am in the UK, using L2, and really looking forward to the L3 - so much smaller!! I have tried a G6 but they are just too big for me. I would love it to show levels on an Apple Watch and have been holding off buying one until the App can do this. Although it is great that it can show the alarms on the watch, it would be so much better if it could show current levels like the phone app. Do you think this will be possible in the future, or are there any 'bridge' apps that could make it work fully on an Apple watch.

      so after just 10 months I now find out that I can throw my Libre 2 reader in the trash bin soon, because the Libre 3 sensors are not backward compatible with the older Libre 2 reader and the Libre 2 sensors are being discontinued. (I could do without the new functions) Providing a firmware update might also have helped, but Abbott is a very environmentally and customer unfriendly company. Just seeking profits, no matter what the costs to their customers or the planet. What a waste of money and resources by Abbott, in an age when everyone is talking about more sustainability and striving to lower CO2 emissions, they intentionally produce a waste product.

      the Libre 3 will not need a reader. It simply work with your cell phones Bluetooth.

      @@Hartmaniac Thanks for your answer. That is great, but doesn't solve my issue with the way Abbott handles their hardware updates and compatibility. I bought the Libre 2 reader because my phone has a weak NFC antenna and it was very unreliable and time consuming to do a reading. I am annoyed though that Abbott was still selling the readers at a time, when they already knew that they would become obsolete within months and did not inform me about it before I purchased. They refuse to take the reader back, so all I can do is throw it in the trash once there are no more Libre 2 sensors available, because Abbott won't plan for compatibility across sensor versions.
