Bayer Contour Next ONE Glucose Monitoring System

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.

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.

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.

Good product, and arrived on time. It is very easy to use.

I've been a T2 diabetic for many years, but lately have been wanting a meter that syncs up to my iPhone and Apple Health without me having to do much. This little meter works perfectly for that. It has Bluetooth and connects to my iPhone. When I want to test, all I do is open the Contour app, and then do my test, the meter does a little 5 second countdown and as soon as the number is displayed on the meter, it is also instantly displayed on the app. It was very easy to link the app to Apple Health, so all my glucose readings go straight there as well.The meter comes with a little case and a starter can of only 10 test strips as well as some lancets and a lancing device. HEAR me, and do yourself a favor- replace the lancing device with an Accu-Check Fastclix. You will thank me later. The most painless lancing device there is.I am very happy with this meter and it is definitely my new go-to and what I tell others to get. Shortly after buying the first, I bought a second to leave at work.Highly recommended.

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.

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.
