You can get instant readings by scanning the sensor with a supported reader or app, so you don't need to do finger sticks anymore. It also has alarms for high or low glucose levels to help with better diabetes management.
The sensor sends your readings directly to your phone every minute, allowing you to observe how your food choices, daily activity, and medication affect your sugar levels in real-time.

How does FreeStyle Libre 2 Plus work?
When you apply the FreeStyle Libre 2 Plus sensor, a thin filament is inserted under your skin to measure glucose levels in the interstitial fluid (ISF) surrounding the cells beneath your skin.
The FreeStyle Libre 2 Plus Sensor, positioned on the back of your upper arm, works with the FreeStyle Libre Reader (sold separately) to obtain readings.
It uses a simple wireless connection similar to a contactless credit or debit card. The sensor can be worn under clothing for up to 14 days as long as it remains undisturbed, and it is water-resistant, making it safe for showering or bathing, although some extra care may be advisable.
Applying the FreeStyle Libre 2 Plus sensor
- Peel the cover fully off to expose the sensor pack. Remove the cap from the sensor applicator and set the cap aside.
- Align the dark mark on the sensor applicator to the sensor pack's dark mark. On a solid surface, press down firmly on the sensor applicator until it stops.
- When the site is prepared, lay the sensor applicator over it and press down hard to secure the sensor.
- Check the sensor after installation. Reapply the sensor applicator's lid. Discard the used sensor pack and sensor applicator properly.
Removing the FreeStyle Libre 2 plus Sensor safely
Use a baby oil or an adhesive remover to help you remove the sensor.
Important
The FreeStyle Libre 2 Plus sensor works with the FreeStyle LibreLink app◊ and the FreeStyle Libre 2 reader to constantly monitor your glucose levels.
Important Information: If you start your FreeStyle Libre 2 or FreeStyle Libre 2 Plus sensor with your FreeStyle Libre 2 reader you will not receive real-time glucose readings, even if you use the updated FreeStyle LibreLink app as your second device. You will need to scan to get your glucose reading on both devices. Glucose alarms are only received on the device used to start the sensor.
