If you’re using a Freestyle Libre CGM along with the Vively app, you may be wondering where you should log your data. The answer is simple: Log all your data in the Vively app.
1. Why Should I Log Data in Vively?
While the Libre app is essential for collecting glucose readings from your sensor, the Vively app is where you track everything else to gain meaningful insights into how your lifestyle affects your metabolic health.
Glucose readings are automatically synced from the Libre app to Vively, so there’s no need to manually enter them.
Vively analyses your glucose trends and provides personalized insights based on your meals, activity, sleep, and habits.
Logging all data in Vively ensures you get an accurate Wellness Score and detailed Glucose Insights Reports at the end of your sensor period.
2. What Data Should I Log in Vively?
Type of Data | Log in Libre App? | Log in Vively App? |
Glucose Readings | ✅ (Automatic) | ✅ (Synced from Libre) |
Meals & Snacks | ❌ | ✅ (Log in Vively) |
Exercise & Workouts | ❌ | ✅ (Log in Vively) |
Sleep & Fasting Window | ❌ | ✅ (Log in Vively) |
Cycle Tracking | ❌ | ✅ (Log in Vively) |
Journal Entries, Stress & Lifestyle Notes | ❌ | ✅ (Log in Vively) |
💡 Summary:
Use the Libre app ONLY to collect glucose data.
Use the Vively app for everything else— logging meals, workouts, sleep, cycle tracking (where relevant) and lifestyle habits to get personalised insights and a complete metabolic health picture.
3. How Do the Apps Work Together?
Your Freestyle Libre CGM sensor sends glucose readings to the Libre app.
The Vively app automatically pulls in this data to generate glucose insights, trends, and scores.
To get the most accurate and useful insights, you must log all additional data (meals, exercise, sleep, fasting, and habits) in Vively.
4. What Happens If I Only Use the Libre App?
If you only use the Libre app and don’t log data in Vively:
❌ You won’t get meal insights or see how food impacts your glucose levels.
❌ Your Wellness Score will be incomplete without exercise, sleep, and fasting data.
❌ Your Glucose Insights Report will have limited accuracy because key lifestyle data is missing.
By logging everything in Vively, you unlock the full power of personalised health tracking and make the most of your CGM experience.
By using Vively as your primary logging app, you’ll gain a deeper understanding of your health, make better lifestyle choices, and optimise your metabolic well-being. 🚀
