About
Libre is Abbott's app for people with diabetes who wear a FreeStyle Libre 2 or 3 sensor. The phone reads the sensor every minute, and the Watch app shows the latest number and mirrors the phone's alerts, as long as the phone is in range of the sensor. Abbott is clear that the smartwatch view is for information and not for making treatment decisions.
On the Watch, in short
Does Libre work without an iPhone?
No. The Watch app needs your iPhone nearby to work.
Does Libre have Apple Watch complications?
Not that we list. It works as an app you open on the Watch.
What can you do with Libre on the Watch?
Glance at your latest glucose reading. Get glucose alerts mirrored from the phone. Check in without taking out the phone.
