Freeing Glucose Data from Freestyle (opens in new tab)

I've used both systems. Each have annoyances. The Dexcom system can't be silenced and has an insane unstoppable firm "your sensor will expire in 6 hours", so unless you reset your sensor in the afternoon or evening this will wake you up and has woken me up at 4AM. I had to hide the Dexcom sensor in a watertight cigarette case to silennce the alarms. Both brands mobile apps hold you hostage and will not allow going do not disturb. I'm currently on Freestyle 2 with their own reader, which is silencible and I use a third party app Juggluco from some Dutch Diabetic. That app is quiet and gets realtime readings via bluetooth, it flakes out some times but it is great to have a second reader. Juggluco also gives me a bonus extra 12 hours at the end of the sensor life, so I'm slowly building up a reserve in days and eventually will have an extra sensor in que. https://www.juggluco.nl/Juggluco/index.html
