Stelo Glucose Biosensor & App by Dexcom—A Leader in Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM)-24/7 Glucose Tracking & Personalized Insights to Reveal Patterns-2-Pack (Up to 15 Days Each*) iOS & Android [1]

Checks glucose every 15 minutes and analyzes the trends with AI. You can swim or slower with it on with no problem. Process is you download the app, check the quick tutorial, clean the area (back of the arm usually), apply it (not very painful), and sync the app to it. After about 15 minutes it starts giving readings. You can plug in when and what you eat, when it exercise, etc, for better insights. You will see a big difference when eating foods with lots of carbohydrates and how your body is reacting to what you are eating and doing. It requires that your phone is nearby so it can send the readings to it. It doesn't seem to really drain the phone battery at all.

I'm pleased with my stelo glucose monitor… I've never used one before and this is showing me exactly what is causing my high blood sugars and what foods don't cause spikes. It's great! I was very nervous about putting it on, I had someone help me, but it really didn't hurt at all :)

Stelo is great for not needing to do finger sticks a dozen times a day. Using a Stelo has been helping me to figure out how different foods and other factors affect my blood sugar. I wish that they were cheaper, but using it does provide a lot of health information.

The Stelo Continuous Glucose Monitor is working very well. The app is relatively easy to use. You can record your meals and activities, and it provides insights about your glucose levels. Glucose is measured every five minutes and shown on a line graph.

I had a trial of the Dexcom 7 from my doctor. Insurance wouldn't cover my prescription so I went this method. I like this one better! It is very easy to log food and then it gives you feedback on how your body responded. It also has a “coach” feature that gives you suggestions and feedback each morning.

My insurance would no longer cover my Dexcom G7, because I am not an insulin dependent diabetic. My doctor wrote prior authorization and explained I cannot detect lows until I'm about to be in the 50's or lower. This helps alert me when I am at 70 so I know to grab a snack. I tried another brand It was bulky and not as accurate. I recommend stello if you need to monitor blood sugar. It also lets you know how foods affect your levels. I have dropped my A!C to 5.5.

Great way to follow my blood sugar and see what foods are triggered. Trying to get my weight back under control and see how my diet is impacting my blood sugar. I am not diabetic so I have never been taught to follow my blood sugar. This has been a great tool to use to help me with that process.

I used to have a real freestyle libre. My doctor prescribed for my blood sugar that drops in the low 50s at night. I'm not on insulin. My new provider could not get it approved. I switched to this one and it is better although it cost me about $100 a month as well worth it it gives me coaching hints on what I can do and what might make it better and what might cause spikes. It also has an AI that will look at the food either you tell them what you've taken or you take a picture of your food and it'll give you the approximate calories. It's pretty accurate. This would absolutely be invaluable for a new diabetic. It would give you insight into your diet that any other way. It immediately senses blood sugar shifts, so you know what each food does to your sugars. And it isn't just sugar. It's a sugar and how fat and protein interact with the sugar that make all the difference. If I were a doctor with a new diabetic, I would absolutely encourage them to get this device. It's worth $100 to protect your body from the ravages of diabetes.

I purchased two boxes containing four sensors, and all four failed within 12 hours of setup. I verified that none were expired. I contacted Walmart customer service but could only speak with AI, which informed me, "Sorry, no returns or refunds allowed." I've since ordered additional sensors directly from Stelo to determine whether this is a product quality issue or possibly the result of improper handling or storage by Walmart.

I would give negative review if I could. Didn't even have the sensor on for 24 hours and stopped working. I was trying to give the benefit of the doubt when I ordered these, and I should've just listened to the other reviews…. So disappointed. Don't even know how to go about to get a replacement.
