Yes, as has been said on the list before, you can wear the sensor pretty
much anywhere on your body.

Hello,
You can buy extra tape to help keep it stuck from Amazon. Also if you search
on Google you can find information on people using the sensors in other
places besides the arm. I have seen videos where people have placed them on
their stomachs or their thighs. Basically anywhere you can pinch to take an
insulin injection.
