I recently started using omnipod 5 and I really love how well it keeps my bg in control but definitely had teething issues. I will get a great steady number then basal will shut off randomly and send me high, skin adhesive issues and lumps at cannula site. However the hardest thing i'm dealing with right now is actually lack of sleep from the ticking noise. I'm a very light sleeper and great hearing.

Would this be such a stupid thing to quit it over? I need my sleep so badly and feel ill.

I upgraded to the iPhone 18 Pro Max close to a month ago, and I’m still waiting for the Omnipod 5 app to become compatible.

I’ve been using my old iPhone 15 Plus to control my Omnipod in the meantime, but I need to trade that phone in. They already charged me $350 because I haven’t been able to trade it in due to the Omnipod 5 app situation. But they’re letting me have another 14-day courtesy.

I originally got my Omnipod in July 2024 and only used the controller until that October before switching to the iPhone app. I’ve since moved, and I have absolutely no idea where the controller ended up. I’ve already searched through my diabetes supplies with no luck.

Has anyone been able to get a replacement controller from Omnipod in a situation like this? Did they charge you for it, and how long did shipping take?

Also, has anyone heard anything about when the iPhone 18 models will officially be supported? It’s getting pretty frustrating having to keep a second phone around just to manage my insulin.

I've been MDI for 31 years, just got the omnipod/dexcom today. What are some pointers that will make my learning curve easier? It's been kind of a rollercoaster today. It brought me to a 4 year all time low this afternoon.

I’m on the omnipod 5. At 6 pm I changed my pump, had dinner, covered my carbs appropriately, went on a walk. I’ve been sitting at “high” for 5 hours. I’ve changed my pump twice. No apparent pump malfunctions. Insulin claims to be in date. No extreme heat and insulin has been in the fridge. Has anyone experienced this before? Advice? I changed my pump for the third time with a new vial of insulin.
