    I've been using my sensor with Blucon for past 2 years. I love the device for couple of reasons. one is it gives reading to mobile and watch every 5 minutes. second it give alarm on HI/LO readings. third it also connects with my Apple watch. All is without scanning the sensor.

    Ive had 2 Libre 2 sensors go on me after baths the seal didn't seem to come lose but i suspect a small porpotion leaked water in making them dies within a few hours... Abbot has replaced them but its the point you run the risk of it dieing swimming or hot tubbing or even taking a bath to soak..... I have never had one come off yet both Libre 2 or the orginal always stayed on for me.

    I like how when I was watching this video that my low sugar alarm started going off cuz I exercise a lot. And I was just coming back from the gym. I want to go swimming this afternoon and I have a claims to be a waterproof elastic bandage.

    nice video. I'm using my Libre sensor with Nightrider to gets readings on my phone every 5 minutes. You can share readings with caregivers. Best thing is I can get alarms.

    Very nice video... many thanks for your efforts you put in to make this video. I added Ambrosia's Nightrider Blucon a CGM device also on my Libre sensor just to get alarms as I used to get Hypo at late night. Also it connects with my Apple watch without phone. It's a waterproof version.

      Hey I'm also using the same device Nightrider Blucon. I can swim for hours with the Nightrider on top of my sensor. other than that I liked the most prominent feature FOOD INSIGHT which really helps me to avoid that food that helps me in control my diabetes

    Freestyle libre is really a life changing device. I was using Libre pro earlier but a month back I started using Libre sensor 1 newly launched in India but still have to scan the reader to get numbers. Before this sensor I was using my pro sensor with Ambrosia's Nightrider Blucon and was getting readings every 5 minutes on watch and phone without scanning the sensor. I thought I would not need Blucon with this new sensor but I was wrong. To avoid scanning multiple times in a day I put my Blucon on the sensor and it worked great as usual. I works with all sensor. Most importantly it gives alarm which is not in Libre sensor. Both are waterproofs.

    I had Miao miao earlier but due to its design it used to fall out every time i used to go for a swim. Likewise i have wasted so many sensors. Then i switched over to ambrosia's blucon nightrider, i saw on their website that its a waterproof unit . I tried it and have been swimming with blucon on my sensor. Its absolutely relaxing to swim and then watch its real time effect on your phone via blucon.

    Thank you for posting this. I put my sensor on last night for the first time & showered this morning and it fell off. So now I know I need to keep it covered in the shower

      Now you dont, probably bad luck or a bad sensor.

      You don't need to cover your sensor for merely bathing and shower up to 30 minutes as sensors are waterproof up to 30 minutes.

    Libre sensor is what make us free from the finger pricking but when we talk about readings we have to scan the sensor. After long search I started using Ambrosia's CGM device Blucon to get automatic readings on phone and watch without scanning the sensor. Both combinations make the life more easy to manage my diabetes.

    Helpful video.. Many thanks. I'm using my Libre sensor with Ambrosia's Nightrider Blucon to get continuous readings on my phone and watch without scanning my sensor. It seems more easy to get readings and alarms with numbers.

    I can hardly understand what you're saying because the background music is so loud compared to your voice.

    My libre sensor and blucon nightrider both are water resistant. With the help of Blucon nightrider I'm able to get my readings on Apple watch without phone without scanning the sensor while swimming.
