Have had an Omnipod5 with a Dexcom bc reader for several years. Love it. No problems. Tubeless & water proof. Am anxious to have it compatible with an iPhone. Should be some time in fall of 2024.

I have been on Omnipod with Dexcom G6 since April 2024, I absolutely love it, I do suggest meeting with a diabetes management member often in the beginning, if insurance will cover the visits. I have learned quite a lot from this disease that almost killed me.

I’ve used an Omni Pod pump for more than 15 years. Love it. The only thing I am not fond of with the “5” model is the constant beeping alerts.

Omnipod is great! My son has had one for many years now. It's tubeless and waterproof. Although I don't suggest excessive water use.
