When a family member or a friend has diabetes, you want to be supportive and
stay close. You might want to know if their glucose levels go too high or too
low, be able to quickly and easily access their insulin pump and Continuous
Glucose Monitoring (CGM) system information.

The app connects ( showed numbers) and disconnects ( showing dashes) Over and over. Same with the care partner app. Says no data , then shows data over and over.

Carelink heart app stops working. Have had to reinstall 3 times in the last 3 weeks. I have a Samsung phone that is 11/2 years old. OS 13. Worked perfectly for 11 months. What is the problem ?

Version 3.9.0 tried for the last two days to upload results. They're not displaying on the home page. I cannot tell if the automatic uploads from my phone are happening and the Blue Adapter link is going through way too fast. Is there an issue with this version? Do we have a date when it will be fixed? I've got a hospital appointment in ten days and they like about 30 days of results available to view to spot trends.

I am repeatedly getting App Temporarily Unavailable when going into Carelink Connect, or No Carelink Connection when it eventually opened for a short period before going back to App Temporarily Unavailable. This has been a problem on multiple occasions for extended periods.

App not working with my latest update. Absolute shambles, really awful app. Worse one ever. We're expected to put our devices functionality at risk because the clowns at carelink can't fix a simple glitch? Joke, this is life and death.

For two nights in a row, there have been server connection issues! Both myself and my husband could not receive data from my son's system. It took a phone call from my older son to say that his brother's blood sugar had gone critically low!! I am seriously concerned with the reliability of the app and Medtronic system as a result of the server connection issues! There are lives at stake and issues such as server connection issues are simply not acceptable!
