Hey, thanks for the review. Do you happen to know how to show your glucose on your SAMSUNG gear w4 (Android) watch? Great for apple but... what about android??

Is it available in the uk?

I Started using the t:slim x2 pump with the Dexcom G7 sensors in May 2024 and its brilliant, really life changing. I'm able to connect the G7 sensor to my iPhone and Apple series 8 watch. So I can see my blood sugars at a glimpse of my watch. The Control-IQ from the pump is just amazing as it stops my sugars going too high or too low. Would highly recommend. It's given me back my life and confidence and my HbA1c results were the best they have ever been :)

Thanks for the review. It’s such a pity we probably won’t see it launch in South Africa any time soon. The G4 is the bane of my pump experience. The only options we have here are the 780g with G4 and the Tandem with G6/7.

My watch is literally on the same arm as my sensor and it will. Not. Connect. It’s been 7 hours now and keeps saying it’s trying to find a connection. My phone and sensor have no problem connecting, connection is strong, but my 6th gen watch absolutely won’t connect im so annoyed 😭

Hi Nerdabetic, I have somehow lost track of whether there is already a way to use libre 3 with an iOS based Open Loop system? Maybe you still have the overview and can give me the latest information? Located in Germany.

Kann mir das jemand auf deutsch erklären? Bitte, für unbegabte Menschen. Ich habe eine Apple Watch SE (2022) 2. Generation

Thanks for the great contents. But the blinking lights in the background make me dizzy.

When you change the CGM, you can let it warm up, when your wearing the other one. So the warm up is taking less then 2 hours (so I heard)

Thank you for the update! Can’t wait til its available in the US

Hi Kamil What's the best algorithme for you in 2024 ? 780/tandem/ypso.... ? Thanks

What do you do if you want to swim? My experience has been an entire failure trying to use the 780G sensors recommended by Medtronic. This whole idea is a failure. I want a sensor much like the Dexcom sensor. 1 fully intact waterproof unit that allows a person to swim and immediately move out of the water, gather information and bolts .

Is the sync version out in the UK now?

If you were on tandem pump and Dexcom g6 would you swap to Medtronic 780g with simplera sensor?

bro can share or uploaded online so can see it in another pone or outside home for my grandma ?

Doesn't it require calibration every day? That's what i read. I could talk a bit more about how did you extended the 7 day period.. it can be restarted, like the G4?

So, on the DL, there's a trick where you can extend a G3 or G4 sensor by unplugging the transmitter from the sensor and plugging it back in and setting it up as a new sensor on the pump. I've been able to get an additional week quite regularly doing this. Seems like there might not be a way to do this with Simplera :(

Great Kamil!! Straight and to the point! Love it. Great vid 🤓😄😄😄

Is simplera direct to Apple Watch Great videos btw

And thats why I put my sensor around my stomach/abdominal. Although, simplery is way better than the current G4, but statistically, its outdated comparing to the competitors.

Roll on getting these, My wife went away for a few days and my sensor failed, had to wait until she got back to change it! Impossible on my own 😢Thanks for the content 👍

You make such a good point about how terrible the guardian is for anyone with physical disabilities. I don’t have any and still find it difficult to insert and tape adequately. So ready for this to be available in the US!!

wowow can’t wait to ditch the guardian 4 for this :D

How is pain on insertion compared to Guardian 4? I’ve only used Guardian3/4 and they hurt the back of my arms so bad on insertion.

My son got Covid and now has T1d a year now😭

Should you change a bleeder to ensure accuracy? What could cities do to remove barriers for people living with Diabetes. I'm working on a project. Lastly, have you tried the Ketones sensor for China?

Great video! What paperwork is shipped inside the applicator 3 pack? A sheet of paper or a booklet?

the only change seems to be that the transmitter and sensor are together. What are the other advantages with the pump? Disappointing that it still takes 2 hours of warm up and only lasts 7 days. I really wish a pump would use a technology like the Eversense E3 that you'd only need to insert the sensor once a year. 7 days is just to short and a 2 hour warm up is to long. With medtronic pumps you can not even insert a sensor 2 hours early and connect a second transmitter to get Continues Glucose Monitoring so that as one ends the new one starts. CGM is impossible with medtronic and you always have the 2 hour sensor information gap. It sucks. It is defiantly not continues even with the name CGM. I'm so disappointed in Simplera CGM. Nothing really changed much in this update. Disappointed 😥 They could have done so much more and better.

Gone through about 7 or 8 of these with the 780g closed loop system Massive improvement on the Guardian 4 After the 2hr warmup it will go straight to a value, no calibration Although there are certain conditions when it will ask for calibration, e.g. if your basal has been suspended over the max time Generally pretty accurate, although the dreaded 'calibration not accepted' message is still in there, only happened once so far, I just kept snoozing it's request for a couple of hours then recalibrated and it was fine after that Getting my BG on my android watch (old Samsung tizen, eww) has been possible but took a lot of research and apps installed: medtronic -> xdrip -> g-watch on phone -> g-watch watch face on watch

How are the accuracy and calibration requirements of the Simplera compared to the G7 and Libre 3?

Hello, I have been looking for a Polish language version of the operating system for a long time, I mean the Polish firmware for Free Style Libre 2. Does anyone know where I can download it and how to reset it?

This really seems to be for those who are going out for run, a swim, marathon, or are involved in an all day sporting event for example, because 99.5% of people are still going have there phones with them.Next question is though bluetooth uses less battery life than wifi, I suspect it’s going to effect battery life on Apple Watch.

I added the Apple Watch to my Dexcom connections. Works sort of ok. Was at a ball game yesterday and walked to concession stand a little walk from stands. Kept losing signal and the little phone icon would show next to readings. Makes me nervous to not have phone with me.

Ty for this anouncement. Please answer if you know... Does Simplera work on all Android phones regardless of system version(Android version 7, 8 ....12, 13, 14)? Because Guardian 4 have serious issues and only works on a few phones that are old and must be compatible with Guardian 4. Also, the Andoid system must only be compatible with version 11 and 12. If you upgrade your phones to Android 13 or 14, the Medtronic sensor will not it still worked on that phone and can't be use with sensor. And those phones, being old, are hard to find now.

Hi Kamil, thanks for making this video. Do you have an idea about when the simplera will be available in the U.K. or ireland?

Does the Simplera or the Dexcon G7 work on a Samsung Watch ? Thanks

Can’t wait. The current guardian 4 sensor is really outdated.

Interesting. I have been pretty disappointed with the Dexcom G7 (too many dead out of the box sensors).

Hello, thx for this video. Old medtronic tech is coming. Just like winter.

The Medtronic 780G paired with the Guardian Sensor 4 is a incredible closed loop system, but putting the sensor in sucks the fat one. It's fiddly and needs to go behind your arm which makes it worse, initial insertion is a little brutal too. If I wasn't using it with the pump I'd absolutely use a Freestyler instead. I sincerely hope this comes to Australia quickly, I can live with a 2hr warm up and 7 day wear :-) Also do you mind doing a follow-up review? How did it hold up over 7 days, how accurate was it, did it need any TLC or calibration? Thanks! Love the video's thank you.

As a mum of a type 1 daughter who was on dexcom g6 for 4 years, now on Medtronic with Guardian 4 sensor. The pump is mind blowing, the sensor is not the prettiest and is a lot more fiddly to insert. We would be overjoyed to get the simplera.

Are you Looping still?

Still no Libre 3 or Dexcom G7 in Australia. So I’d say be a long way off before we see Simplera. Love the video though

CGM changed my life, for ever, i never trusth pricking my finger outside of my home, and CGM just give me soo much freedom that i spend a entire week on a really far away place in a oddly concret camp to make part of a event of technology, i never will make that without CGM, but using libre 1 with miao miao to send data to my smartphone, i hope they improve using time to a month or cames the freestyle libre 3 here in brazil soon as possible. Also, i'am going to a event next week where i will have 12 hours of ininterrupt activities, sure i will pack some high density glicose food and my insuline, but this is another stuff i never will make without CGM, because that is a huge time without any big meal, soo, how to control a glucose levels properly? Well, if it is getting down, i bite some stuff, if i have to inject insuline, sure, i use my pen, and keep a eye on the levels, if needed lots of chocolate or even higher density glucose stuff, honey packs turn to be nice, but the extreme need i use some energy drinks, those stuff are the best i know in brazil, i not sure, but i guess here not has any glucose pen or similar stuff, never see any place selling those. Also, i'am not alone in this trip, and it get even further confidence to deal with this adventure. The long term insulin as Tresiba, that is once a day helps to keep stuff in place as well, better than this is only few stuff as directly libre 3 to my smartphone, and a really increase will be have totally no need to inject insuline, but take a single year dose of medic injection that "cure" diabetics for a while, those studies, i hope become true in few years

Hello ah thank you I hope simplera will simplify my diabetic life as a Med 780G and Guardian4 user. Merci beaucoup @@++ ;) :)

Frustrating how long G7 integration with pumps (specifically OmniPod 5) is taking. Would be so nice to stop being shackeled to an outdated product for compatibility reasons.

As someone who is full Medtronic ecosystem (currently on 780g+guardian) for more than a decade it’s very disappointing to see how small this evolution is. A guide on what someone could expect when trying to transition away from Medtronic’s ecosystem might be interested.

2 HOUR WARM UP! Deal breaker.

Have you heard anything about when the simplera sync will actually release in the UK? I heard spring, but in my mind spring is pretty much over

Thanks for posting. Now that they’ve addressed their terrible guardian CGM travesty, I would consider going back to Medtronic. (I thought the algo was great.) Waiting to see what their next pump is like. Thanks for the video!
