Do users need to scan with a sensor to obtain a sugar level reading, or can the Bluetooth connection display the reading without scanning?

How to obtain sugar levels is entirely up to the user.

With the latest FreeStyle Libre 2 system, users of the LibreLink21 app (v2.11 or later) can obtain glucose levels without scanning. Once the Libre 2 Plus sensor is paired with the user's phone, the latest glucose information will be automatically displayed whenever the app is opened or a compatible phone receives a notification via Bluetooth . Even with newer LibreLink apps that automatically receive glucose readings every minute, users can still scan the Libre 2 Plus sensor anytime, anywhere using their phone, even when communication is interrupted.
