It has a small profile and it works well. Here I address the major points: 1. Accuracy: I'm on my second lingo, and I compare its reading with TWO separate True Metrix glucose meters. Every time I have checked, the lingo reading is between the two reading from the True Metrix meters. So the lingo is never far off from what is the true value. The sensor does read low if you compress it, like when you sleep on it. But that is a minor issue. 2. Ease of application. The applicator is spring loaded and the unit goes on without a hitch. Don't be worried about what looks like a needle -- I feel nothing from the puncture when it inserts. I inspected the unit after removing it, and the probe looks like a flexible short piece of hair, so very thin and unobtrusive. 3. Sticking power: I bumped my first unit several times and it stayed on just fine. I prepared the area by shaving my hairy arm and cleaning it with isopropal alcohol. That seemed good enough. It finally came off prematurely after I got really sweaty and pulled of my shirt, which was sticking to my arm. I didn't feel it coming off an found that it had re-stuck to my skin a couple inches from where it had been. So I just washed my arm and applied a new lingo sensor. I purchased the little sticky pads that one can place over the sensor to protect it from accidental bumps, and that seems to work well, making it less likely to be pulled off. 4. The app: It works well and provides a running plot of the glucose data in 5 minute intervals, taking a running average over the data that is taken every minute. 5. Customer support: Support is great. They respond quickly and take care of the issue. My wife had a defective sensor and it was replaced right away. 6. Data: You can contact customer support to request your data, which they provide by email in CSV format. Two suggestions here: (1) It would be nice to be able to download the data electronically without the need to request it by email. (2) I would like to have the minute by minute data so that I can analyze the statistics. They tell me that they are working on electronic access but I have not heard back about getting the minute-by-minute data. Overall, this is a great little device that helps you see which foods and activities affect your blood glucose. And, it's nice having long term data to compare it with your A1c. In my case, it appears that the A1c results are much higher than reality. Review: Installing the app - If this sensor is useful or not, I will never know... because I could not get it to work. To apply the sensor to the arm is easy and you will not feel a thing. To install the app is a total different issue. I have a Samsung Phone and I use this phone exactly for the reason intended by Alexander Graham Bell and nothing else... like most seniors my age. I do not care one bit for all this nonsense and pretend functionality on a modern phone. Actually most phones are virtually unusable because the keyboard is too small for old fingers. But I did managed to "register" for a Google account. They of course ask me all sorts of questions which are none of their damn business... but I suffer with dignity so I go to the Google Play Store and search for "Lingo" and installed the app. The app started with asking me all sorts of questions... again, none of their business. I paid for the sensor so I should be able to use it, but no... they are more interested in my info. Then 10 or 20 pages later (i did not count) finally the page which read: Ready To Scan... I did hold the back of my phone directly onto the sensor which I had already put onto my arm. and .... nothing... then the message... Pairing Error... I tried numerous times Then I called the support line and as expected a gentleman with a heavy indian accent ( you recognize the accent when they call you and try to con you out of your money, never pick up the phone when you do not recognize the number). Obviously the guy talks too fast, uses unnecessary words and you cannot understand a thing. This went on for good 1 hour and nothing. among other things, he asked me to delete the app, reinstall this and then search for a red dot... ??? what red dot??? I still do not know what he meant. Anyway I told him, that I cut my losses and tell everybody about my ordeal. Then he suddenly offered me to replace the sensor. Very well I am down $50 already, might as well... arrives in 2-3 days, meaning 4-5 days because of the weekend. Why is there no "app" for this sensor on a PC. After all A PC has a screen I can actually see and a keyboard which does not require baby fingers. And for Pete's sake, do not ask me all these dumb questions, which are none of your business. If the replacements ensor works, I will try it... but then never again. Simply measure your morning fasting BG like before and that is that. Minute to minute updates are superfluous and expensive technology and a pain in the rear. 12/21/25 1:14pm Important update. I did not want to wait for the replacement and ordered another one yesterday from desertcart same day delivery. This one worked, but did not give me any reading for 1 hour and afterwards it was 20 points too low compare to the finger stick (73, 92). however this morning it was a lot better, In fact just now it reads 92 and the contour next fingerstick reads 95. I am more than happy with that. To be sure I get some benefit from this device... after all I learned that overnight my BG dropped to 55 for a brief moment... I seriously doubt that. All you can see trends, and I am lucky with this one, it is even accurate.... but I am an EE and I did work with large continuous datasets which were contaminated with large random errors and judging by the graph, it looks very much like a data set processed using a Markov Process. This is a mathematical process to get the best up to date measurement even when the whole data set is contaminated with random errors. But there is no free lunch in mathematics, nothing beats accurate measurements, no amount of math and statistics will make it better, even when it appears like that. In the moment I am happy... lets see, if the other reviews have a point. besides, why do you want to measure something you already know? Sugar and refined carbohydrates spike your blood glucose... its common knowledge... don't eat junk food and you do not need a CGM, Everybody who wears a CGM or reads this post, has already done the most important thing, which is educating oneself about nutrition... everything else is superfluous. Important update 05/Jan/2026 I am on my 2nd sensor. They last only 14 days for whatever reason, most importantly I guess, the glue will not stick much longer than that, probably the skin will secrete oils which dissolve the glue??? The good news was, that removing the old sensor was easy and it left no mark on my skin other than a tiny hole where the sensor was inserted. Unfortunately, the second sensor is also about 20 points too low, relative to the test strip. Of course one could argue that the test strips read 20 points too high, which I seriously doubt. Consecutive testing with test strips (Contour Next EZ) show readings within 5 counts of each other using brand new test strips. Overnight I get readings of 55 with the CGM, which is utter nonsense, because I am a recovering type 2 diabetes patient... even a reading of 75 overnight is hard to believe. The only useful thing I have discovered is that overnight my BG drops significantly. Morning glucose measurements are virtually useless, because of the classic BG spike after waking up. As soon as you out of bed, the BG is already on the rise and it can go up 30 maybe even 40 points within minutes and you have no way of knowing on which part of the curve you are measuring. So again, I have a warm feeling that maybe I have conquered my insulin resistance, just add 20 points to whatever the CGM tells you and when this is under 80 during the night, you maybe ok... still avoid carbs for the rest of your life ## Features - HSA/FSA eligible.

As I was looking at CGMs, I was surprised to see so many bad reviews. I’ve never written an Amazon review in my life but felt my experience was so different from the bad reviews that I needed to help people feel informed. The reviews noted issues with the CGM 1) Falling off easily 2) Not being accurate 3) Not working. I purchased the Abbott Lingo and was very, very impressed with the applicator, the biosensor, and the app. Everything worked flawlessly for the full two weeks when it appropriately ended its time. Regarding the issues others noted above: 1) I proactively purchased the Ceeport CGM sensor stickers and cut a small hole in the center since the dot on the biosensor can’t be covered. Abbott should probably consider including a sensor sticker with their package, but until then, it’s a no brainer to buy a $1 sticker to protect a $45 biosensor. The sticker lasted the full 2 weeks and I had zero issues with the sensor or sticker coming loose with daily exercise and showers. 2) Reviewers had complained that they did a finger prick glucose test and it was completely different than the reading on their CGM. I didn’t test my blood sugar at all during the two weeks, however I do know that the CGM is not testing *blood* sugar, it’s testing *interstitial fluid* (in the tissues) fluid, so it’s going to vary and it is a delayed result. My satisfaction with the rest of the product and seeing appropriate fluctuations based on meals/exercise/stress level give me confidence that this is likely pretty accurate. 3) When you initially open the app any time you want to see your reading, it says “sensor not in range” (or something) and the first time I saw this, I thought it wasn’t working. It does this every time you open the app, lasts 30 seconds or so, and then it pairs and all the info since the last time you logged in is uploaded on the app. It functioned perfectly for me for the two full weeks. Lastly I’d like to comment on the application of the biosensor. I was SO nervous about sticking myself with the needle. It literally did not hurt. The spring action made so much clicking sound when it fired as I was *very slowly, nervously* putting pressure on it, that it caught me off guard and all of a sudden it was applied and I didn’t even feel the poke! I was amazed. Nice work Abbott. The other positive component of wearing this CGM was the awareness of my body’s response to different foods. It gave me incredible insight (and therefore power) into how my diet was affecting me at the cellular level, and gave me great motivation to improve my dietary choices.
