LibreLinkUp

Remote glucose monitoring for trusted contacts

LibreLinkUp lets family members, friends, and caregivers view glucose information shared from a compatible FreeStyle Libre setup. It is suited to people supporting someone with diabetes, including parents monitoring a child or caregivers checking on an older relative. The app focuses on shared visibility rather than replacing the sensor wearer’s main diabetes management app.

Readings, trends, and alerts

The app presents recent glucose readings with trend information, along with graphs and a logbook for reviewing changes over time. Users can receive notifications about high or low glucose events when alerts are shared with them. LibreLinkUp can also report sensor-related updates, such as a newly started sensor or a lost connection, helping contacts notice when shared data may no longer be current.

Designed for quick checks

The interface puts the latest glucose value and trend direction in a prominent position, making the main information easy to check. Interactive charts provide more detail when a broader view is needed. A dark viewing option supports use in low-light conditions, which can be useful for nighttime checks. Because shared readings and alerts depend on connectivity between the relevant devices and services, gaps in internet access may affect updates.

App details

LibreLinkUp is listed in the Medical category and is developed by Newyu, Inc. It has a 4.59/5 rating from more than 34,900 reviews and records 1,000,000+ installs. Its main value is giving a support network a convenient way to follow shared glucose information and respond when an alert requires attention.
