    "It's really quick and easy to use & seems accurate. The refills for me are too expensive.",
    "The software doesn't connect to Google Health Connect, so it does not share data with other apps.",
    "I've been using the Accu-Chek Guide for a while now. It's working as expected. connects to the app mySugr via bluetooth. (and apple health)",
    "The accu check guide gave me consistently 10-15 higher numbers than my contour next and freestyle lite.",
    "I LOVE the Accu-Chek Mobile — because it's all integrated it's much more convenient for me to use.",
    "I REALLY don't like this meter for all the reasons mentioned. My USB charged one would last forever on a single charge. The battery life is awful on the new one.",
    "Accu-Chek is objectively more reliable than OneTouch in some comparisons, though Contour Next is reported the most reliable.",
    "The app is awful too. I have been diabetic for quite a number of years and have been using an Accu-Check Mobile for all my finger-pricking.",
    "Works fine for me — offers an app that updates via Bluetooth with your results.",
    "I found the meter easy to use and read, and it gives quick results, but some units arrive with missing or dead components."
