  • Potential Pump for Blind diabetics

    There has never been an insulin pump that Blind diabetics can use. This has strong possibility since there is no screen and an iPhone app typically is accessible for the voiceover screen reader. I’m asking for Blind diabetics, can you please follow apples developer accessibility guidelines? Can you please look up the documentation and look it over? I am a retired computer programmer having worked in Azure and programming micros services and I would be more than happy to help test the app. Please! Follow Apple developer accessibility guidelines. BTW it is baffling to me that one of the leading causes of blindness in America is diabetic retinopathy and all the insulin pump manufactures have never accommodated this market. can you please provide me a contact number or a contact form that will actually get sent to your developers or a project manager guiding your development teams? Thanks so much!

  • Decent, but Definite Areas for Improvement

    Before this pump, I had the Tandem T-slim. I really like the T-slim and only gave Mobi a try because my warranty was up.

    I like the small size and wireless charging. That being said, the pump and the app need improvements.

    First, the app struggles to display the graph of my numbers. I often (multiple times a day) have to close out of the application and reopen it to load the graph. Also, unsure if this is a pump issue or app issue, but the battery detection software is trash. There is no way from a fully charged battery that I’m at 20% only 12 hours later. On a daily basis.

  • Lacking

    I was truly hoping for a better app with Mobi after years with TSLIM. Unfortunately, that’s not been my experience with app often losing its BT connection without Dexcom for no reason, even while Dexcom app stays connected!
    The app should also for more customer preferences like timed exercise and longer dual wave boluses. And it makes no sense that the app shows start date of CGMs, it’s useless since all that matters is know date & time of expiration! I know we can find this hidden in Tandem source, but why make it more difficult than needed to find this??
    I wish companies (especially medical DME Cos) would listen more to their consumers’ needs when developing products and apps for better user experiences!
    Love the pump, hate the app and the charger!

  • Tándem Mobi app

    This pump, app and technology are on another level. Easy to use and understand app with great information to control you Blood Glucose levels.

  • Great App with 1 Small Issue

    I live being able to control everything about my pump via an app. Especially clearing alarms! One small issue, however, appears to be related to the trend arrow. According to the user guide, the trend arrow is supposed to be red, yellow or black depending on the glucose reading. Mine seems to be gray and it’s not clear when or why.

  • Needs better QA

    Since the app is the primary control surface for the pump, Tandem really needs to get better as testing and quality assurance. The latest update includes a bug where the blood sugar plot will stop displaying recent values, forcing you to restart the app. I have to force quit the app several times a day now, and for software that controls a critical medical device, that’s unacceptable. The app weakens what could be a fantastic user experience with, and it’s not the first time Tandem has broken apps with buggy updates.

  • Has one major bug, but amazing otherwise.

    I have been using this app for a few months. I love the tandem system. It does a amazing job of keeping me in range and stopping lows and highs compared to the Omnipod 5 that I was previously on. I am super grateful for the app, however almost every day it will “lose connection” and all my previous data points on the graph will disappear. I called tech support and they had me uninstall, reinstall, and reconnect my pump to my phone. I don’t lose any iob or any previous data and it fixes the issue for a day or two then the problem occurs again. Not the end of the world but it would be nice to not have to do this every couple of days.

  • I love my Mobi

    I’m 70 years old and a type 1 diabetic. The Mobi is the first insulin pump I have ever used and I am extremely happy with it. I wish I had gone on the pump many years ago now.
    I don’t miss the 4 shots a day I used to take. The Mobi controls my diabetes near perfectly. I am always in the 90%or higher control range.
    I would have given it 5 stars rating but I have had the same issue that many of your reviewers have complained about. You lose the CGM graph totally or partially many times. I’ve talked to your technical people several times concerning this issue and they had no answer. I’ve deleted and reinstalled the software which fixes it for a day or so then it happens again. Other than this glitch the Mobi operates magnificently.

  • Our first pump

    My son is a type one diabetic and in elementary school. This is a great pump for a kid on the run, and the controlIQ is amazing, he’s had the best control since he was diagnosed. Unfortunately, because his independence is still emerging, he is not always aware of his battery running low, or the reservoir running low. I mentioned to our trainer that it would be wonderful to have an app similar to the Dexcom Follow app so I could know what’s going on. He also ignores some of the warnings, some of it is a school issue because he can’t take his phone out to clear the warning. But it would be nice for different sounds or vibrations for different warnings.

    As far as the pump itself, we love it but if I could change anything about it, I would have a port to recharge the pump too. We like the qi charging but sometimes it is an inconvenience to take off and charge.

  • So far, so good!

    First day with the Mobi, and so far the app has been easy to set up and use. I would give 5 stars if there was widget and Apple Watch compatibility!
