- Was the message "Incompatible sensor..." displayed?
- If Yes, your sensor is not configured for use with the mylife CamAPS FX App (it must be FreeStyle Libre 3); replace it with a compatible sensor)
- Contact your local Abbott Diabetes Care team for more information.
- Did you see the message "Sensor already in use..."?
- If Yes, your sensor has been started either with another app (e.g. FreeStyle Libre 3 app) or with another mylife CamAPS FX account) Contact your local Abbott Diabetes Care team for more information.

You may need to touch the sensor with your smart device or move your device very slowly over the sensor until you find the correct position; your phone will vibrate twice after successfully scanning the sensor. You may need to remove the mobile phone case.
- If the message "Unable to connect to the Freestyle Libre 3 sensor" was displayed
- Check if you are connected to the internet - disconnect from Wi-Fi and reconnect by re-entering the Wi-Fi pairing key or temporarily switch to mobile data.
- If the message occurs repeatedly despite the above points, it is likely that the phone has not passed the cyber security integrity checks. Check the integrity of your smart device in the mylife CamAPS FX app menu under =>Help => Check the integrity of your phone.
