Mastering the Omnipod 5: Pro Tips for Successful Diabetes Management
Thanks for this! I'm 54 and will most likely become diabetic this year. I am so worried that I won't be able to manage it but watching some videos is helping a little bit.
Hi Jay I'm glad that I can help. Everyone will experience this disease differently but just know that there is plenty of help out there if you're willing to be patient and open to change.
@@typ3me yes it will be a big change I will be having at least the tail body and neck of my pancreas removed at some point this year so I will get type 3c diabetes. I know they have a good team at the hospital that will help me like you said I just need to be patient.
Thanks for the video , Can you do an update on this to see how the Dexcom G7 and omnipod5 work together with android or iPhone ? That will be great man thanks and have a great day !
Sure Alex I got a few videos in the works and I will make sure to keep that in mind.
If you want a non-invasive blood glucose result, simply look at the back of your wrist as if you are looking at a watch and take a guess. That should work, and if you want to know how to re-calibrate you will need to send me half of your money.....at first....then some more.
Does it work with galaxy watch 6? Please respond also blose or wearable widgets are not available...
Unfortunately, there really is no guarantee that it will work for everyone. There are a lot of variables like devices and software versions. I wish I had a local shop to help people as they walk in on a case-by-case basis. Unfortunately, I can only share my experiences and what worked for me. Good luck to you.
I have the Dexcom G7 and a Samsung Galaxy 4. Can you help me?
WIsh I could but there are a lot of variables like devices and software versions. I wish I had a local shop to help people as they walk in on a case-by-case basis. Unfortunately, I can only share my experiences and what worked for me. Good luck to you.
you should do the strips 3 times, I bet you get 5-10% variation in them, they are an approximate guide.
Dexcom g7
Blose is the best app for CGM reading with the Dexcom G7
Thanks so much! As an insulin dependent diabetic for over 50 years, this is a game changer. I’m an avid cyclist and hiker, and occasional reluctant runner, and have been struggling the past few years to find an easy way to have my blood sugar available at a glance. This is the only place I’ve been able to find how to do this on the Apple Watch. Thank you!
Your welcome. Have fun and be safe.
Trying to “pair” direct connection from the watch to the sensor is RIDICULOUS!!!!!! The sensor NEVER wants to pair with the watch directly. After changing sensors you are usually trying to get it to pair for several hours or up to a full day after fighting it over and over again.
After the update I’ve experienced the same. I gave up on pairing my last sensor
Thank you, Ben. Your video helped a lot. My 6 yr old daughter just came back from the hospital after a type 1 diagnosis. I got her a new phone and watch to go with her g7. The watch will give her more flexibility to play with her friends outside without toting around a backpack to keep her phone in range. It’s amazing we have this tech now so that she can just be a free and happy kid.
That’s fantastic. You’re very welcome
slightly suprizing results when I looked that up on UK Amazon 😳, guess we aren't ready for wearable glucose monitors yet😂
Unfortunately not with this devices, but there are a couple others in the works that show promise.
Thank you soo much. I kept having pod shutdown overnight as I had slept through the warning, wasting many pods and insulin. No joy with Omnipod or diabetic team re this action on the changing of settings. Just followed your instructions so fingers crossed for tonight 😊
How did it go?
In short they don’t work , always give reading 6-7 , never read the low or high
ruclips.net/video/sWadFt4vBtY/видео.htmlsi=NCw9e8HoFMZ8iZyl
This guide helped a few weeks ago. unfortunately the widget app isn't available to download as its an older version. i decided to use the pre set watch face (dexcom cgm) and LOVED it. However... Jan 2025 it decided to stop working and gives me a message saying ''check your CGM on your mobile device'' It doesnt allow me top use the watch face at all do you or anybody in the comments know how to fix this error or is there a more updated way to connect to my galaxy watch 5?
Have you tried the Blose app?
I dropped a post on the floor while trying to toss it in the trash after it prematurely fell off my skin. The fairly gentle impact on the floor instantly triggered that horrible siren.
Oh Dang.
Just an update to this video - the blose app and blose watchface are now separate installs. You then need to add all desired components (complications) to the screen.
Interesting . Thank you for the update
I’ve been terrified of needles my entire life, so I don’t use insulin, so this device is giving me a new hope for my diabetes. I’m saving this video so I can do this very same step by step process. Thanks again science!!
You are very welcome Juno, good luck to you.
Are you talking about black coffee or coffee with sugar and creamer?
Good question. Black coffee has no carbs although roasted with beans. Cream coffee carries the carb value of the type of cream you enjoy.
I use around 9 to 10 units a day so I’m going to try this. I’m sensitive to insulin and carbs. I eat about 20-30 carbs a day.
How did it go?
In my experience, it seems TSA agents get zero education about all things diabetes. I simply don’t travel unless I absolutely have to and when I do I just try to “bear it” through all the personal, public “violations” they have put me through. I usually arrive in a foul mood, but if you want me to travel, that’s the price. (Haven’t flown anywhere in years, personal choice.)
Thanks for the comment. I did some flying last year and things have gotten much better. I made sure to announce the devices I had on my body and wasn't hassled for the. However, I did have to have my fingers swabbed for bomb-making dust soooo, there's that.
Thanks for the review, It's a great app easy to set up and the only app I could find that would work on a Galaxy Watch 6 Classic with wear OS 5.0.
I agree it's one of the best!
Have been struggling to get this to work, and cannot put the wearable widgets on my Galaxy Watch 7. Any ideas?
Sorry to hear that, have you tried the Blose app? Most people prefer it.
Blose is the one I got to function for me. It's working great. I can't wait until Dexcom gets on the ball and realizes a lot of folks dislike Apple. So it will work natively on my watch 7
Too bad that the g watch wear app doesn't work since December 2024 and the project seems to be abandoned.
NO way, that's lame. Did you switch to the Blose app?
Doesn't work on ios6.0
IOS has its own Dexcom G6 and 7 watch app. It's seamless. However, if you like third-party apps try the Sweet Dreams app It's super clean.
That watch is a scam. Giving random numbers.
I agree I got rid of mine and never looked back.
The watch isn't lying, you've just discovered something scientifically groundbreaking! 😮🎉
HAHA, thanks!
This link leads to a blood oxygen meter that also measures blood pressure it is not a blood glucose meter which is being sold on this link.
They must have changed it. Sorry for the confusion
Diagnosed at 29( with LADA), now 31 and going to be starting on the pump soon! I had a quick question though. When activity mode turned off, and you were at 89 (9:24). I thought the omnipod stops giving you those micro doses when it sees you’re in range? So even if activity mode were to turn off would the omnipod not know you’re in range to know not to give you the micro doses? Or do I have that wrong? Amazing video and very informative (this is the type of information that is SO hard to find) so thank you!
Good question. The microdoses replace a long acting insulin keeping you in range. The dose is small enough to keep your glucose within a specific range. Does this answer your question?
Dont put insilin in the hold. It might freeze. Also dont go through a scanner with a cgm
Thanks for the advice, in my experience I've never had either of those issues.
I have nothing but troubles with the omnipod5, I hate it, and I am going back to pens. They have the worst/weakest blue tooth ever, and the pods are always failing. I hate the pens too, my health is going to suffer, but the hassles omnipod5 have put me through aren't worth it at all.
You must ultimately do whatever works best for you.
I have a Galaxy watch 5 and use Dexcom G7. I have been using Blose for a long time and like their watchface. Suddenly the Blose watchface was gone and I have not been able to reinstall it. Now I use G-watchface instead but it has such small letters that I have difficulty seeing. I have been looking for an instructional video adapted for Dexcom G7 without success. I will be incredibly happy if you can help me in any way. Thanks in advance and wish you a brilliant 2025// Arne
Ditto!!!
Me to
@jerrydeedon9433 oh no have you tried restarting both devices?
Yes@@typ3me
@typ3me yes I even tried uninstalling and reinstalling
Anything for the android watch
Unfortunately nothing yet.
No mention of xdrip watchfaces? My friend, why are you so pathetic??
Yesterday I installed UI6 on my Samsung Galaxy Watch 5 Pro. Today the Blose watch face is no longer available. It is obviously no longer supported. The app is still installed on the watch. Blose can still be integrated as a complication in other watch faces. Only the actual Blose watch face is gone. Very unfortunate, I loved this watch face.
Edit: Use the newer "Blose Digital Watch face". This works fine with OneUI6.
What? No way. That's horrible news
@@typ3me After updating to OneUI6, programmed watch faces are no longer allowed. But Kaj Bjurman designed a new watch face called "Blose Digital Watch Face". You need a current patched Blose app for this. The settings are a little tricky without instructions. I didn't look for instructions. I'm the kind of person who tries until it works. Now this watch face looks exactly like the old one. There seems to be a difference in the energy settings. Despite AOD being activated, the graph always disappears after a short time. No problem, because the glucose level is constantly displayed. It also uses less battery. I no longer have to charge it every day, but only every second day. OK, it can't be compared to a Garmin watch.
@@typ3me Sorry, my last answeres are being deleted instantly. YT don't like me. There is a new version available. It works fine.
Thank you @@stortebeker6464
Hi! I really like Blose app it works perfect with my G6, but now I'm going to change it to G7, will it still work with a new sensor? Thank you 🙏
Yes it has for many of my viewers
Can’t hear the beeps w that music
Thanks for the advice I will be sure to reduce most music in my future videos.
Best app worked perfectly on our Galaxy watches with Wear OS 4. Unfortunately, it no longer works after an update to Wear OS 5. Any idea on how to get it working on Wear OS 5 greatly appreciated.
Do you only add the long acting insulin? None of the guides include anyone injecting the fast acting insulin. Why is that?
Good question. This is because with this pump the fast acting insulin is micro blouses throughout your day to act as long acting insulin. You will use the same insulin for requested blouses as well.
all you have to do is deactivate it,it shuts up after that, lol
Thank you so much for the tips. 31 years type one and just now getting an omnipod 5 (insurance problems) I love it so far. I'm sleeping better since I don't have a pump around my waist all night :)
That's great to hear. You are very welcome.
My Samsung Watch 4 now just shows 0 Min and __ after doing all of this, What should I do?
Try restarting your devices. If this doesn't work the Blose app is a great option.
@@typ3me I tried restarting and it didn't work, then I went through the whole process again. At the 727 point in the video, it takes us to customize the wearable watch. Everytime I click on customize, it takes me back to the G-Watch wearable screen.
You may need to switch over to the Blose app
I got the g7 watch will this work for the g6 dexcom
Yes. If you have issues you can also try the Blose app
Been trying it to work, always saying wrong crediting or server????? What am I doing wrong.... samsung phone watch 6, dexcom g7
Is the region correct?
I would like the name of the 1st face you showed with hour/minute screen working, plus bs info. Thanks!
All faces on this video are the Blose app. The only differences are color options. Hope this helps
Personally, I prefer the "Gluroo" app, Because with that one It allows you to add it to Most watch facers that you can customize.
Hi, found your vid while looking up Glute 4 after trying to watch Ben Bikman on thyroid and low carb. Am not lo carb, but may have been as most carbs gave me stomach issues or shaky. Am wondering if might be problem with carbs or sugar or insulin now. Looked up the lada,mody you mention, ugh, even more confusing. As a kid would get shaky with cake or candy, but tried measureing insulin and after eating it ws 50(hour later) but bg meter was high !. Am skinny and tried adding carbs to gain weight. How does one know what they need. Can loose 20 pts bg just short ride up slope, but 141 2 hrs after ate brocoli and turkey.
Navigating Diabetes can be so challenging. It differs from person to person. I recently met identical twins one kid had type 1 and the other was perfectly healthy. I wish I had all the answers for you. Stay diligent and learn yourself. It gets better I promise.
@@typ3me did find that thiamine(vite B1) lowered it for some. Just read that hypothyroidism increases risk of diabetes (and many with diabetes are low in thiamine). Thanks
I've never received any pod pal over stickers. I wonder why. 😢
If you call customer service they might send you free ones. They did that for me about a year ago.
The widgets app is not compatible with the Galaxy Watch 6. I couldn't download it. I had the Blose app working until my watch had an update last week, so now I'm trying to restore it. The G-Watch analog and Digital faces do seem to give similar data, so I may use those until I find a solution. Either way, this video does not work with my Watch 6.
Did you try the Blose app yet?
@typ3me yes. I had been using blose for the last several months. My watch got an update, and suddenly, it won't display bg readings anymore.
@catatonicbug7522 oh no
could you try put it under the wrist , or somwhere else on the body, just to try it.....
Intersting idea. I no longer have the device, but I honestly don't think it would have made a difference.
