I believe these cheaper devices are not very accurate ie accuracy range of 20% which is a fairly wide window. I’ve also heard there are many things that can impact your glucose even with the same meal like time of day, exercise, stress, sleep, etc. So if you actually want to find the patterns you’d need the expensive CGM over many months.

It doesn't need to be accurate, just consistent.
