Well, again, it might be good enough as an an early indicator of "you might be developing pre-diabetes", which is not nothing.

But also, I think folks are looking for the holy grail of non-invasive yet sufficiently accurate measurement and we don't seem to be there yet. (There are a few companies who claim to have achieved exactly that, but, well, snake oil exists everywhere.) You either prick your finger multiple times a day, or you insert a sensor into your arm every other week.
