Best patches I've found for Omnipod
I have been a Podder for several years now and had been constantly frustrated with pods leaking when i work out, particularly when I wear them on my legs. I tried the patches that go around the adhesive, but that didn't solve the problem. I bought some 3-D printed plastic frames that snap on the pod under a patch. Those helped, but weren't 100%, and added extra bulk and weight. I tried patches with the strip across the top of the pod. I even bought a velcro band that would wrap around and hold the pod while exercising but it was mostly uncomfortable and if you didn't get it just right it'd take your pod right off. Enter these patches. They are the most secure and somehow the cross angle is more effective at keeping the pod secure than a strip across the top of pod. I tolerate the adhesive fine, sometimes they do stick a little *too* well and I can get aggressive ripping them off...lol...but a little baby oil will take them off if needed. I've been in the hot tub, sweating in the soupy NC heat, etc and they hang on just fine. The only caveat is I get a bit anxious if my sugar is high and I can't see the nose of my pod to check for leaks but that's such a rarity since I've been using these. Diabetes paraphernalia is an individual experience so YMMV, but I hope they never stop making these!

Great minimal coverage.
I use these with my Medtronic Guardian 4 sensor. They are great for when I want less patch on my arm. They don’t stick as well as others I have used unless I use some kind of sticking barrier. Even so, they work well for swimming with smaller tan line. Easy to place just where I want it. Try them out and see how they work for you. They could be super sticky on you. They peel off easily without hurting. They are at a great price point and I will buy again.

Too many edges to peel up
I liked the concept of this overlay because it can be used for both my son’s dexcom or omnipod which is why I chose them for our lake vacation. Knowing my child would be in and out of water and not wanting to lose a device I chose these overlays for the first time. They were handy in their flexibility if use but had more edges that would peel up due to the four “arms” of the overlay. They worked, we didn’t lose a device but they didn’t last for very long before an edge peeled up and caught in his rashguard and I would have to carefully pry it up without also pulling out his device. Good concept just wasn’t the best for us in when exposed to prolonged time in water.

Great for frequent changes
I have a 4 year old with an OmniPod that is changed every three days, the adhesive starts to lift by day 3 if it gets wet which is great because scraping adhesive off is painful for her so this stays in just long enough and isn’t terrible to get off.

It's not durable for 10-14 days nor is it water resistent!
Terrible product! I put one on this morning and after my shower it was already falling off. The adhesive doesn't last even one hour. Can imagine if you're a very active person who sweats a lot that this would just slide off your body. Don't be fooled by the cool looks of this product, you'll regret buying it. Kind of pricey too! I was able to get a refund, so I'm happy about that! I have tried Right Care, CGM patches and they work so much better!

Best ever!
I have tried so many and these are the best. Easy to put on. X design make them very flexible. Adhere during water sports and exercise. They are a little large so are very visible. I wear my on my stomach, so they are covered.

Not Recommended for Active Lifestyles
I really wanted to like this product. I bought them based on a recommendation from a diabetes lifestyle blog. A bit expensive, but I thought it would be worth it if they performed as expected. I am very disappointed that it's simply not the case.I am on my 5th patch and have applied each to freshly cleansed and dry skin. No other product has been applied in the area near the patch/CGM.Pros:1. It covers the Libra Freestyle 2 very well.2. The colors are fun!3. The adhesive on the first day is fantastic.Cons:1. As noted by a few other reviews, the adhesive starts to loosen from your skin almost immediately once the patch gets wet. The wetness can be from sweat (though that doesn't immediately cause the petals to start peeling in my experience), or swimming or bathing (both of which will cause the petals to first loosen and then start to roll up).2.I would not recommend applying the adhesive directly to the CGM. I tried to remove a peeling patch to apply a new one after approximately 4 days because 3 of the 4 petals had started rolling and looked terrible. I had to pull a little hard and accidentally displaced the CGM, which caused me to replace it 10 days early. A very expensive mistake!Overall, the concept is great but the execution leaves something to be desired. If the petals were truly water resistant, this product would be fantastic.

Amazing!
I have had diabetes since 2001 and in 2005 I got my very first insulin pump my biggest problem is I am allergic to the adhesive plastic and it just takes my skin off too when coming off. Also I did a lot of swimming and running. It would always just get sweat underneath and slip right off. Well THESE RIGHE HERE WORK!!! They allow you to sweat and allows ur skin to breathe underneath so no more just sliding off my skin with sweat in between! They work and my skin does not rip off with these. I love them. I have used these and the other shapes of this kind and I 100% recommend to everyone and I also now live in Florida so works phenomenal!!! Must buy!!
