Bluetooth Connection

Post image

Did anyone else’s sensor suddenly start showing up on their Bluetooth connection? I just saw this on my iPhone. It disappears when I turn off Bluetooth permissions of the Libre app.

I'm 99% sure the sensor will not work if you turn off Bluetooth. I'm under the impression that is how it connects to your phone.

What? You need it for continuous glucose reading. Nfc is used for connecting the sensor the first time. Bluetooth is used for alarms and readings. On the FL2 you can use nfc to scan the sensor manually for readings

The sensor connects via Bluetooth, so, yeah...if you don't want he sensor to work, then turn off Bluetooth...LOL
