How it works

Connect the FreeStyle LibreLink to LibreLinkUp to remotely share glucose readings with loved-ones

Optional alarms with the FreeStyle Libre 2 system

The FreeStyle Libre 2 system offers optional alarms that can also be shared with loved-ones using LibreLinkUp.^ Even if the FreeStyle Libre 2 user has turned off their alarms on the FreeStyle LibreLink app, caregivers can set their own alarms and receive notifications based on their loved-one's sugar levels.ǁ

You will now receive glucose information in the LibreLinkUp app. You do not need to have the LibreLinkUp app running to receive notifications from your connections. You can connect with up to 20 FreeStyle LibreLink app users to see their glucose readings.

Having Trouble?

If you successfully installed LibreLinkUp and set up your account, but do not see a notification from the FreeStyle LibreLink user, make sure that your phone has an active Internet connection (Wi-Fi or mobile) and your phone settings allow you to receive notifications.

If you still do not see an invitation and you know that the invitation was sent, ask the FreeStyle LibreLink app user who invited you to send a new invitation to the email address that you used when installed LibreLinkUp.
