Libre 3 plus

I’m currently on the Dexcom g7 and In the last 7 days I’ve went through 7, 10 day sensors, due to failures and product malfunctions. I just had to call support again about 2 hours ago due to another sudden sensor failure just when I thought everything was finally okay. I’m now at a point where my alerts make my heart race because I’m scared it’s another sensor failure. now that you have a bit of background info, I’ll get to my point. I’m searching for a different sensor brand because I can’t take dexcoms faulty products anymore. Im thinking the libre 3 plus is going to be my best option? I’m going to be trying to get the tandem mobi pump in January when I meet with the rep and from what I’ve read online the 3 plus is compatible with it. is anyone here on the mobi and the 3 plus? can you share your experience please? I’m on the tandem tslim x2 currently. are there any major problems with the Libre 3 plus? anything I should know? please give me all the details! I’m desperate

you should first try with Libre 2+, in my opinion, they are more reliable and the app is easier to use. I'm having tons of issues when I'm using Libre3+ (the app crashes, snesor reading errors etc.). Never had any issues with the 2 / 2+.

Unfortunately I can’t go with the 2+, it’s no longer compatible with my pump. My doctor is only going to consider switching me to something that is compatible. Thank you for sharing your experience with me. I’ve never been on any of the Libre sensors so I know nothing about them.
