Contour Next ONE Blood Glucose monitoring system

This Bluetooths to an app on your phone to auto record results. Had little idea about it when it first arrived but very quickly got the hang of it. Great bit of kit.

Would be zero stars if I could give it. Not for UK market. Test results are factory set AND LOCKED to Mg/DL and there is no way to change them to MMol/L which is the normal test format used in the UK. This should be clearly stated in the description of the item (which it isn't) and not left for reviewers to make people aware of. Extremely misleading listing. Absolutely useless meter for the UK market and, considering it's a MEDICAL device, should be removed until the description is amended to include ALL important information.

Very easy to set up and use. Excellent app to add information to improve your understanding of the results. Very well thought through device and app

The device is easy to set up and is of a good, reliable quality. A little disappointment on reception doing the first two readings; message to replace the flat battery asap. It is a shame that some quality check did not take place before. The battery is supposed to last a couple of years.

Easy to use results can be used with app on phone

The rating here is zero stars. This device is not for the UK market, although the Amazon site picture of the packaging suggests otherwise with UK mmol/L on box; on un-packing, non-UK mg/dL settings are on the box sent and on the fixed factory settings in the device - dangerously misleading. It took ages to discover that these settings could not be changed to UK readings. ☹️

Brought the device for family, strips are as people have said , expensive. Main issue with the device is that the metric cannot be changed to uk standard, which is strange as the guide shows in uk standards, maybe a different version is available for the uk, keep this in mind when purchasing.

Probably the most accurate home testing strips and system on the market. Very expensive though, particularly if you want to test regularly through the day.

I love my Contour Next One. Its accurate. The strips are reasonably priced, and most importantly, the strips can be found at practically any major drug store or supermarket, unlike the glucometers that require a subscription and force you to be at the mercy of the shipping department and parcel service. It comes with a control solution, so you can rest assured that the readings you get are accurate. The case is small enough to fit in your front pants pocket, and holds the glucometer, lancet pen (included), your test strips container (the starting kit only has 10 strips, but that's enough to get you going), a zippered pocket with a resealable baggie containing 10 lancets, and a space you can put alcohol swabs (not included). I have been reusing the baggie, because feel the netting on the zippered pouch would snag loose lancets, probably shortening its life. The app is easy to use and is available for iPhone and android smartphones. While it is more than adequate, the Contour Next One is also compatible with other quality apps. I prefer to use the premium version of an android app called Health2Sync, which will pair via bluetooth with this glucometer, and also pairs with my scale and blood pressure monitor, allowing me to easily record all my health data, and track my nutrition intake, then send a detailed report to my physician before my appointments. All in all, Bayer's Contour Next One is an inexpensive, widely available reader with everything you need to start monitoring your glucose.

Works flawlessly for me. The meter stores every blood glucose (bg) reading with date and time. It can also store the meal status ("fasting", "before meal", or "after meal"), but (unfortunately) ONLY if you select it immediately after the bg measurement. Android app: You can edit each reading's details (whether fasting or before/after breakfast, lunch, dinner, snack), medication taken, physical exercise status, and you can store one picture (eg of a meal) per reading. It displays a small but decent graph of bg readings across the last three days, albeit only in portrait mode on my phone. It automatically uploads all data to their web server, but I haven't discovered if there is any use for this feature or whatever it should be called, especially since there is no online-data sharing with the downloadable windows software (see below). Downloadable Windows GLUCOFACTS software: Clunky and appears unfinished to me, but it's adequate, allowing you to upload meter readings by USB (but not by bluetooth). GLUCOFACTS looks like it's meant more for a nurse or doctor managing several patients, but it's still useful for individual use because it can graph the reading history, spot trends in the history, and export its data to spreadsheet and other formats. But GLUCOFACTS links neither to their web server nor to the android app, so any data edits or notes you may have added while in the android app does NOT update anything in GLUCOFACTS (or vise versa - GLUCOFACTS to android). So the android app and GLOCOFACTS don't link together at all. In fact GLUCOFACTS doesn't even store any data to the computer, so it completely re-acquires all meter data every time you reconnect its USB cable. Perhaps this missing feature, that would benefit each consumer, is missing due to privacy restrictions that would be required in the clinical setting of multiple patients? Still, I find the GLUCOFACTS software useful, even tho it seems it wasn't designed for individual consumers like us. Overall, one cannot beat this deal, and it more than fulfills all the promises they make. My criticisms are merely requests for added features.

Love this meter. Easy to use and comes with free access to an app to track numbers. Love that it’s small and easy to hold. Doesn’t need a massive drop like other meters and results are quick. My go to meter.

This kit is only the case, the sticker and the meter. It pairs to your phone with the downloadable app so keeping track of your readings is easy. The included case keeps everything in order.

It’s relevantly smaller device that I ever used. I am diabetes over 15 years. I opted this small form factor device for its Bluetooth capabilities. However it additionally have a more reasonable information management application. I am able to record additional values and even medication taken. It sets times for meal and attempts to automate possible before / after meal readings. Application show in real big writing with color codes and that is indeed well thought of by company. Results come out in 5 seconds and same time in my app as well. I can see a chart of values over period of time. And averages too. There are some customizable settings that I have not tried and used machine with its defaults. It was easy n straight forward to have first reading from machine. I did not use its lancing device as I bought genteel. So far so good.
