The only reason I still use G6 is because G7 isn't compatible with Omnipod yet.

I’m still using the G6 with the Omnipod. I calibrate it at least 1-2 times a week with a finger prick. I’m staying with it until the G7 is perfected more. As of now, I feel the 6 and Omnipod work like the “normal” things or as close as I’m going to get 😊

I got mine last summer. I like it, but I’ve had a few issues. I had 2 sensors that wouldn’t pair with my phone. I had 1 or 2 that wouldn’t let me calibrate it. The most frequent issue is that I often get fake low alarms when I put in a new sensor. I now try to do a couple of calibrations before going to bed to minimize being woken up at 4am for no good reason. That being said, the customer service has been good. They have sent a new sensor when I’ve had an issue with one.

I have had issues with the G7 not staying on. I have to use there adhesive, tegaderm and mastisol glue. Also, you have to double check here and there manually to make sure your G7 is calibrated correctly.
