Is anybody else now getting the Automated Delivery Restriction warning again instead of the Check Blood Glucose warning after the update? For some reason my PDM reverted to the delivery restriction :/ Wedding sugars would have been a lot smoother had it not reverted for some dumb reason.

hii. today i was told officially that they're recommending me to get the omnipod. with medicare part D i pay 17%. does anyone else? if so how much do you pay. im so nervous im not gonna be able to afford it. my ratio is 1:3 so im taking a lot of insulin and am so excited to start this shotless (unless i have to) journey.

Recently built the app and on my 2nd full day of Dyi looping with OP5.. game changer! So much more efficient than the OP5 algorithm.. who else is on loop and what have you noticed or any tips I might have missed reading through the loop docs, nervous that my endo might not support but the last 2 days have been the least stressed about my numbers/control and overall I’m a happier person.

So I’ve noticed that it seems to be very random on when I get the two beeps when filling my pod. I fill the syringe all the way. Then tonight there was maybe 100 units (or more ?) in the syringe and it did the two beeps other times I’d get down past the 100 units line and then did the two beeps. Has anyone else noticed this?

Anyone get this error today on a Samsung device? Just happened about an hour ago. Customer service was no help since they said my phone (Galaxy S21) is not compatible even though its on their list of compatible devices.

Got to dig out my receiver in the meantime. Quite frustrating.

Not sure if 2AM hypo brain, but is my omnipod trying to kill me? Or is my body doing something weird? I've not had a bolus in just over 6 hours. I had a random bad hypo, fixed with Coke and some carby food. Bolus'd for the extra food that served as my meal at 8PM and have had no extra bolus since. My insulin active time is usually 4 hours. This is some crazy drops, so thinking I might pull this pod off and replace just in case. Got an hour's drive to do for work in 4 hours' time so don't trust it.

Any one have issues with the app on the iPhone 18?

Is there a way to unlock your (Samsung) phone and still keep the Omnipod app locked? It's really annoying by the time the phone recognizes my fingerprint. Set up this way by Trainer. I'm still new. And, why can't we take screenshots of our own data? Thanks.

My pump expired today (12:47) so naturally I put on a new one, but then around 6hrs later(18:04)it gave me the nonstop beep indicating it had fully expired. I checked my log and it clearly shows that I put on a new one today. Am I tripping? Ive been using omnipod for years and ive never seen this. Why did my pump expire? Im so mad abt the wasted insulin >:c

Note that I DO NOT have the auto shut off feature enabled.

I've asked my Dr., the educator, AI, they all tell me no. Since I have been using the Omnipod I have had severe indigestion/gallbladder attacks. literally, from day 1. I do have a gallstone, but I don't have attacks this long, maybe a day, then months later, I do have GERD/stomach issues, but again, not like this. Nothing helps. So I know that sometimes there are side effects that the professionals don't believe because it's not in the "documentation", but I wonder if anyone one else has had similar experience, and IF you had, what did you do for it? Why I feel this may be a side effect I am having, simply from continuously being injected with insulin 24/7.

I got a replacement in the mail, and when I was pulling it out of the envelope, it fell on the ground. Should I not use it because it could have damaged it? What do you guys think?

I just wanted to give a PSA to everyone. Know your settings in your pump app. My old dr wouldn’t give them to me. My phone ran low on storage and I had to make storage room and it made me delete the app and that means starting all over from day 1. I have all my settings written down now because my new dr was willing to give me the info but it was a nightmare for days.

I've been using the Omnipod 5 for a year now. Today is the first time I have had bleeding when removing a pod. It was a steady stream. I'm guessing I lost more than a quarter teaspoon before I got it to stop.

Hey guys, I just got my first omnipod 5 in the uk and I’m terrified of it going off during one of my lectures (200+ people in lecture hall😭). Is there any way to prevent this or to fix it quickly?

My daughter (6 years old) switched from Dexcom G7 to libre2plus and we’ve found the low (below 3.9) alert to just be a single beep, it’s really not great and worry that we won’t hear it at night. Is this normal? Or is there an issue with our handset or how we’ve set it up? The urgent low is loud, multiple beeps which we hear but don’t want to have to wait for that in the night.
We’ve checked the volume on the handset is high and can’t see anything else obvious. Any help would be great.

Welp, after almost a year with Omnipod I had my first screamer. I updated the app on my phone last week and since then it has been a bit "off" when switching pods. Today I deactivated the old one, phone prompted me to activate the new one, and 10 minutes later the old pod started screaming in the trash. Killing the speaker wasn't doing anything so I took it outside and to the horror of my neighbors I wacked it with a mallet and it finally shut up.

Anybody having slight issues with the app since the update?

Hi everyone,

I am going to be starting my Omnipod and Dexcom journey next week after being on Medtronic’s 780G and G4 for the past 8 years and would appreciate any tips and tricks you may have that you would be willing to share! :)

I will be using the G7 and Omnipod controller

Posting here as it’s the best chance someone with a similar issue will exist.

I recently got AirPods 5. I’ve never had a Bluetooth issue between my omnipod and/or Dexcom G7 and my iPhone 16 before now.

If I wear one or both AirPods, randomly Bluetooth stops connecting to the Dexcom and the omnipod. The omnipod still connects to the Dexcom so it seems it’s only between the phone and these devices. The phone still connects just fine to my Apple Watch while wearing the 5s. With my older AirPod 4s, they just work without disconnecting from the medical devices.

Anyone else?

Been using Omnipod 5 since it came out.

Pros

It's a patch Pump

Cons

Too Conservative

Limited Integration with CGMs

Do not listen to customer feedback

I’m at the end of pod 2 and know my basal is set too low. I keep inputting generic boluses to correct but I keep seeing my iob go down despite it still being my sugar still going up. (I’ve input 4.3 units but it’s only saying 2.5 iob right now) I was told when I see this happen it is just being used in place of the standard basal dose. My starting basal has me effectively doing double the amount of insulin I’d normally bolus but based on how low carb I’ve been eating as I try to learn the system, I don’t see any significant changes happening to my basal based on my tdd numbers. Is there some setting I can adjust to make it so that the system stops taking that insulin away from me? Would the algorithm learn better if I edited a “sensor correction” for a higher dose or use fake carbs so it thinks I need the insulin for food?

TLDR: what system setting would be the best to change to make it less conservative as it thinks my increased insulin needs will make me go low, but it does not.

Yesterday I got this message. I had to delete the app which took all my information and settings away. My dr gave me all the info to put back in the app but I am at the part where I don’t know what to put on this page and my dr never mentioned it. This has been an absolute nightmare. Does anyone know what goes here?

😑 i changed the pod without taking off the old one first.... then I took off the new one and tossed it in the trash. Haha I didn't even notice till I went to bolus for a meal 30 min later and saw it wasn't connected to the dexcom. 🤦‍♀️

(Not looking for advice, just sharing an airhead moment)

Going on my honeymoon (in the Caribbean) in a few weeks, have used omnipod most of my diabetes life (13 years). I haven’t done MDI in over a decade.

When I’ve gone on beach vacations in the past my pods always fail. Rather it’s from salt water or sunscreen I’m not sure.

Any tips/tricks to help prevent pod failure while on my honeymoon? I have skin prep wipes and over patches. I’m bringing long acting insulin in the event multiple pods fail and I give up.
