OS Compatibility Guide is available in the Help Section of the App or
on www.FreeStyleLibre.com. You should check the OS Compatibility
Guide periodically to make sure that your OS and your phone
continue to be compatible with the App.
• In the event that an App or OS update causes your previously
compatible phone to become incompatible, you may be notied
ahead of time via e-mail or through the App. Make sure that your
LibreView account has your current e-mail address to receive
important information.
• After an OS update, open your App and check your device settings to
make sure it’s working properly. Some OS features may impact your
ability to receive alarms or glucose readings. For example, if you use
an iPhone and the iOS Screen Time feature, add the FreeStyle Libre
3 app to the list of Always Allowed apps to ensure that you receive
alarms or if you use an Android Phone do not use the Android Digital
Wellbeing app.
What to know before using the System:
• Review all product information before use.
• Take standard precautions for transmission of blood borne pathogens
to avoid contamination.
• Make sure that your devices and Sensor kits are kept in a safe place,
and maintain your devices under your control during use. This is
important to help prevent anyone from accessing or tampering with
the System.
Who should not use the System:
• Do not use the System in people less than 4 years of age. The
System is not cleared for use in people under 4 years of age.
• Do not use the System if you are on dialysis or critically ill. The
System is not cleared for use in these groups and it is not known how
dierent conditions or medications common to these populations
may aect performance of the System.
• Performance of the System when used with other implanted medical
devices, such as pacemakers, has not been evaluated.
What should you know about wearing a Sensor:
• Wash application site on the back of your upper arm using a plain
soap, dry, and then clean with an alcohol wipe. This will help remove
any oily residue that may prevent the Sensor from sticking properly.
Allow site to air dry before proceeding. Carefully preparing the site
according to these instructions will help the Sensor stay on your body
for the full wear duration specied by your Sensor insert and help
prevent it from falling o early.
• The Sensor can be worn for up to the wear duration specied by your
Sensor insert. Remember to always have your next Sensor available
