Hello everyone.
As I told you, I have been using Freestyle 2 for a year and a half, I bought it, and I decided to buy one 3 to compare.I've been with him for 3 days and I think I have my opinion clear so I tell you in case it serves someone.
First regarding mobile phones that Abbot names the mobiles he has tried, which does not mean that they only serve those.The important thing is that they use the Android operating system versions 8, 9, 10, 11 or 12 and have Bluetooth and NFC, but I think those are 99% of those we use.Mine is Xiaomi and is going well.For iPhone for the moment they have no app in Spain.
As advantages I find its small size first.It is very small, even the box occupies much less than the previous one.The applicator no longer brings in two parts, one comes, that you take away the lid and you already insert it.
And of course, the great advantage, the continuous measurement.
Personally I think that if it were the first one I had used, I would be delighted, but I find failures to the app that make me miss the 2.
1) It is not possible to put a widget to have the desktop value.You have to enter the app every time you want to see the value.I had FreeLink and Diabox with the 2 and I was already used to seeing the value in the Diabox widget as soon as I opened the mobile, it was very comfortable.
2) Seeing a measure does not come out of the day as in 2. It was a fact that I looked and I miss and I don't understand why they have removed it.
3) Alarms.It does not let you choose sound (in the 2 it leaves) one comes by default and is very strident.I like discrete and I have them in the 2 app, it will give me a heart attack every time this sounds to me 😂😂😂😂
I do not understand this average and alarm since OK was in the 2nd app that do not improve the app, ok, but at least have the previous one would be logical.
4) Registration Book.It is empty since it recorded scanned values and now nothing scars.I also liked to look at the registration book and see values, not just graphics.
Regarding accuracy, there is little experience I have, but it gives me the feeling that as the other.The first day was higher than the capillary, about 30 mg and the second began to normalize and already coincides a lot.
In summary I will continue with the 2 for the aforementioned.I like to see the glucose in my desk (Diabox), the average glucose of the day and I need to be able to put the alarm tone that I want.
A pity, because it is so tiny ...
But well, I do not lose the hope that Abbot solutions those 3 themes and entuces would change me.
This is my opinion, if someone who uses it and wants to give yours we can contribute more information.
