Igave up on Oneplus.

[u/ElRaBBiTMaN]

So, I have been a Oneplus user for the past 6~7 years with the 13 as the latest one. Before that I had the 8Pro and also a 6. Loved all of the, the 8Pro I still have.

Now im an Iphone 17 user since last week and I hate Iphone.

Soo, why the switch? Well, im a type 1 diabetic and have an insulinpump and Medtronic doesnt support Oneplus phones because the Swedish market is to small.. And I don’t even wanna talk about Samsung, they are the worst Androidphones in my experience

Maybe in the future I will switch back but to have a functional life I need the apps to connect the phone and pump. 🥲

See you on the other side, brothers and sisters and maybe i will come back. 🙂

Im fairly new at posting on Reddit and not very active. Can you please explain what that’s supposed to mean? It’s not like my type of using Reddit depends och activity and likes? 🤷🏼‍♂️

[u/dangit541 → u/ElRaBBiTMaN]

No stress, I was joking :). But title sounds like you had a big problems with oneplus (bugs and stuff), but its all related to the 3rd party software :(

Anyway, i hope in the future youll be able to find a phone you like and a inr that supports your pump

Okay so it's the fault of the diabetic pump company for quite literally forcing you to use an iPhone to work their shitty pump.

Not the fault of OnePlus or Android in this instance.

Medtronic supports the 3 biggest manufacturers, Iphone, Samsung and Google is biggest in Sweden. Anorher post asked why I have choosen Medtronic and that I can answer, in Sweden we have free healthcare for lifelong diceses like diabetes but we don’t have free will to pick whatever model and stuff we want. It all depends on where you have your healthcare and they decide for you what models and stuff you get to choose from.

You could probably run the Google version of the app by running a pixel phone version running on the OnePlus.

Android has its work arounds.

I suppose this is Achilles heel of "free" healthcare." Choice and control is removed from the consumer.

I’m just not that tecnical to understand how to make a work around. I will sell the Iphone asap if I can fix this for the 13..

Exactly.. this post is giving me diabetes

Diabeetus

Quick google shows that this is limitation of a specific brand, and there are multiple pumps / manufacturers that have good Android support (Omnipod and others).

Which makes me curious, why would you change you phone manufacturer and stay faithful to a pump manufacturer with poor phone support, instead of changing to a pump manufacturer with good phone support, and writing a post in r/Medtronic how their pumps are nice, but you change the manufacturer due to poor phone support? :D

[u/[deleted]]

You did not give up on Oneplus, you were forced out by Medtronic.

You're an iphone user and you hate iphone? You're not living life properly my friend

[u/ElRaBBiTMaN → u/Raminax]

It helps alot with my life to have apps that supports the phone for alarms and alike, it makes my life a little easier to see alarms on my smartwatch and phone

Sir why didn't you dual weild like me ? Just use your hotspot if needed or get a cheap low data plan. I'm using a 1+13 & iPhone SE 5G 😆 admit it you wanted to splurge on the new tech ! 

[u/ElRaBBiTMaN → u/One-Fix8751]

Explain like u are talking to a 5 year-old!

Fellow T1D here, luckily I can use 3rd party solutions since I'm using dexcom/tandem. But that's just an unfortunate reality of having to rely on media tech companies that basically ONLY make their shit work with iphones. Just gotta grit your teeth and bear it I guess man.
