Manufacturer Reason for Recall | A beta (early-release) version of the iOS application, version 2.13 (TestFlight) had a software issue preventing successful pairing of the t:slim application with Abbott FreeStyle Libre 3 Plus (FSL3P) continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) sensors, resulting in the insulin pump being unable to establish a near-field communication (NFC) connection with the CGM and requiring FSL3P users to use their t:slim insulin pumps in manual mode. FSL3P users are unable to access their CGM's glucose values from within the t:slim app and cannot use their pumps in automated control (closed-loop) mode, which could lead to users experiencing hypoglycemia or hyperglycemia. |
FDA Determined Cause 2 | Software Design Change |
| Action | On 07/16/2026, an "URGENT MEDICAL DEVICE CORRECTION" communication was sent via certified mail to customers informing them that an unexpected behavior was identified in the t:slim iOS mobile application version 2.13 made available through TestFlight. The issue involves users unable to pair a compatible FreeStyle Libre 3 Plus sensor after updating to version 2.13. If this occurs, the application will incorrectly display an "Incompatible Sensor" message and prevent sensor use.
Customer are advised to:
1. Discontinue use of iOS t:slim mobile application version 2.13
2. Uninstall version 2.13 from their mobile device.
3. Return to the current production version of the t:slim mobile application (version 2.12.1) available on the Apple App Store.
4. Scan the compatible FreeStyle Libre 3 Plus sensor with version 2.12.1 when starting their next sensor session.
