All OmniPod Users – Survey of New OmniPod Features
This user group has tremendous insight into life with the OmniPod. Our feedback can help Insulet make decisions about new product features.
A previous brainstorming discussion provided a list of features to consider. A smaller pod and integration with CGM are not included as Insulet is already working hard on these. Our next step is to add ranking to the list in order to indentify how important each features is.
Follow the link below to an online survey (using SurveyMonkey) and provide your feedback. The survey is anonymous and results will be forwarded to Insulet and members of this group. There are twelve questions and the survey takes less than ten minutes to complete. The survey will end with a Survey Monkey ad page--just ignore and close.

Please forward this link to as many people as you can. This group has 800+ members and we need hundreds of responses to get Insulet's attention.
NOTE: I am not affiliated in any way with Insulet and they have not approved/disapproved of this effort. I am simply a father of a daughter with type 1 diabetes who wants to make her life more comfortable.

I believe the site manager can but for the rest of us we would have to "friend" each individual. Otherwise we would be be getting spam all the time. I would have loved to be able to send the survey link via email.

I am working with one of the group administrators to see if we can do this.

Great response so far. Over 120 people have completed the survey. Love to get more to assure a good sample and to increase our influence with Insulet. Thanks to everyone so far.
Here is a preliminary list of the top 10 in order:
1. Alarm if canula becomes dislodged
2. Better pod adhesion (more contact points-especially around canula)
3. Better PDM form factor (more modern, better features)
4. IOB calculation option that includes food bolus
5. More visible canula (to confirm insertion)
6. Cushioned/flexible pod bottom (for better fit)
7. Sunlight readable display
8. Vibrate option for alarms on PDM
9. Waterproof/shockproof PDM
10. More user-definable settings -

Thank you to Bradford for helping with boosting the responses to the survey. We are approaching 200 now (~1% of total users). I will close the survey soon and start compiling the results. Thanks to everyone. Can't promise how much impact we'll have on Insulet but at least we are giving them another data point to consider.
