Step 1: Connect Libre to Sweet Dreams
Already follow someone in LibreLinkUp? Skip to the last step.
- Open the FreeStyle Libre app, signed in to your LibreView account. Tap the menu (three lines), then Share or Connected Apps.
- Tap Connect or Manage next to LibreLinkUp, then Add Connection. Enter a name and email address (your own works) and tap Add.
- Install LibreLinkUp. It's a separate app from the FreeStyle Libre (LibreLink) app.
- Open the invitation email, create a LibreLinkUp account, verify your email, then tap Accept on the sharing request.
- In Sweet Dreams, choose FreeStyle Libre and sign in with the LibreLinkUp email and password.
Step 2: Set up Mac & iPad
- Search for Sweet Dreams on the Mac App Store (Macs with Apple silicon) or on the App Store on iPad. In the iPhone app, Settings → iPad & Mac can send you a download link.
- Sign in the same way you did on iPhone.
- Optional: Calendar integration (Settings → Calendar, or Settings → CarPlay → Connect with Calendar on iOS 26) uploads your latest reading to a Sweet Dreams calendar. You'll need your Apple ID and an app-specific password (not your Apple password).
Common questions
Is Mac & iPad free?
Download Sweet Dreams from the App Store to try it.
Which Libre account do I sign in with?
A LibreLinkUp (follower) account. Invite a LibreLinkUp follower from the FreeStyle Libre app (your own email works), accept it in LibreLinkUp, then sign in to Sweet Dreams with the LibreLinkUp account.
Do I sign in with LibreLink or LibreLinkUp?
LibreLinkUp. Sweet Dreams signs in as a follower, so the FreeStyle Libre (LibreLink) login won't work.
Does Sweet Dreams work with Lingo?
No. Lingo doesn't share readings through LibreLinkUp.
Free on the App Store for iPhone, Apple Watch, iPad and Apple silicon Macs.
