Description

Lingo tracks your glucose to help you eat and exercise in a way that’s right for your body. The Lingo app requires a Lingo biosensor.

What, when, and how you eat has a big impact on your body. It’s all connected. And it’s all influenced by your specific glucose patterns. See for yourself with Lingo — the science-backed system designed to power healthy habit change.

Glucose is a powerful signal of your body’s unique response to food. Lingo tracks your glucose 24/7, translating the data into actionable insights you can use to optimise your nutrition, build new habits, and improve your metabolic health.

KNOW YOUR BODY IN A NEW WAY.
Rooted in decades of research and made by Abbott — a global leader in continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) technology — the Lingo biosensor streams glucose data directly to your phone, so you can see the impact of what, when, and how you eat.

The Lingo app offers coaching and personalised insights about which foods work for your body. Armed with data and actionable insights, you can make diet and lifestyle choices that support your health goals.

FAD DIETS DON’T WORK. SCIENCE DOES.
- Understand your metabolism — See your personal glucose response to different foods and activities.
- Learn new ways of eating — Discover which foods work for you and what to prioritise. Every person is different, and insights from Lingo help you know your body in a new way.
- See your progress — Watch the impact of your new habits add up over time. Lingo provides daily, weekly, and monthly snapshots to keep you on track.

Buggy

Lots of things about this could be good. However, the app requires massive and urgent attention. The latest update seems to have broken things more, especially if you connect to apple health. Won’t open or show anything useful.

A good concept but totally let down by the app. Given the origins (fairly old tech) and the parent company (wealthy drug company) it’s quite a shame. I’ve cancelled and going to try Zoe. As there’s more useful info there for now.

STAY AWAY till product, operations and service mature

Great concept but half baked. Very early stage app that is still glitchy in many places - so far I’ve faced a login issue, address input issue and have placed an order that is having some major delivery mishaps, I wonder what’s next in store? Sadly it’s not just the product that’s not mature, the operations aren’t there yet. Have spent a lot of time trying to get the matter fixed and the service received so far is not sufficient, the support agents are helpful but the policies they are being asked to follow seem majorly lacking. For £300 spent so far, a less than ideal situation. Given how this situation is being handled, the company just doesn’t seem to care about customers, when you charge customers £300 for a product (that held so much promise!), at least give them a good experience and if you make an error do more than just saying sorry.

Good app but…

I found this journey with the lingo app very interesting. It is great to see how food and exercise affect my glucose levels. There are a few things to improve I think. App freeze now and then and sensor disconnect. However when the sensor reconnects, it fills up the missing data point. I would like the option to set some threshold on glucose level, at which point the app would send a message/vibrate the phone to alert the user. I would like also the option to download the data points to do some analysis myself. Also, manually annotate/detect peaks would be useful, instead of just add notes for the automated detected peaks. I find the glucose weakly trend graph very interesting, but it plots this and previous week only. I wonder if this visualisation could be improved to track the weekly trend across several months. I definitely recommend this app, even if the sensor are not really on the cheap side.
