Thanks a lot for your reply!

I kind of do have the option for a omnipod dash with a diy loop using something like nightscout, but my nurses have advised against it (I suppose significantly because it's not something they can directly monitor or have knowledge of). I'm highly tempted to just use the TSlim because if my projects are anything to go by it'll be years before I actually set it up haha

I've recently switched from BasalIQ to ControlIQ on the X2. I very rarely feel like I'm on a "closed loop system". It's super conservative and left to itself it consistently keeps me higher than I'd like. With BasalIQ I could at least set up a low-enough target BG (5.0 mmol), now I'm stuck with 6.1 and the pump is actually happy to leave me at 7-9 mmol for hours, with very feeble interventions.

Long story short, I'm planning to buy a few boxes of Omnipod Dash pods, in a country where I can do so, out of my own pocket – so that I can try iAPS. #WeAreNotWaiting and all that :)

BTW Nightscout should not be required for Loop nor iAPS.

I'm in Australia so have had similar thoughts about the Dash. Because it's my daughter and not me, I figure I better not. When the Omnipod 5 lands in Australia we'll likely swap over since it supports closed loop out of the box.
