What do you mean it doesn't work for us? Just curious.

My question is is there more than one model of the freestyle that people are currently using? Does the app work just with the newest Version and do you have to scan the sensor with the phone or does it continuously read out? Costco was telling us about the one they call the freestyle 14 day that they sell at a tremendous discount making it not too unreasonable for people whose insurance will not cover.
