Abbott Lingo is an over‑the‑counter continuous glucose monitor (CGM) and app designed for adults not using insulin, providing real‑time glucose data and personalized metabolic insights.

  • It tracks glucose 24/7 using a small biosensor worn on the upper arm.

  • It is intended for adults (18+) who are not on insulin and not for diagnosing diabetes.

  • It provides minute‑by‑minute glucose readings and interprets them through the Lingo app to help users understand how food, exercise, sleep, and stress affect glucose.

  • Key Features

  • Real‑time glucose streaming to your phone every minute.

  • Habit‑building insights: The app offers personalized tips, weekly reports, and “Lingo Count” to help users manage glucose exposure.

  • No prescription required; available OTC in the U.S. and U.K.

  • 14‑day sensor life with a replacement promise if the sensor fails early.
