[Diabetes-Talk] Omnipod 5

[ed worrell]

Hello all,

I do know that you have to have one of 3 currently  approved Samsung devices. The  S 9, S 10, or the S 20. I’ve seen on Reddit that the S 20 has Bluetooth connectivity issues at times. So this might not be a great option. I just ordered my starter kit and the pods yesterday. They seem to be on backorder right now with CVS Pharmacy. I have also ordered a Samsung S 10 E smart phone. This will be the controller. I hope together with the DexCom G5 app, the whole set up will be  accessible.
