4 Setting Up Your Omnipod5 Application
4.1. Setting Up Your Account
e Omnipod 5 System requires you to sign in with an Omnipod ID. If you
already have an Omnipod ID, use the same username and password to sign into
your controller.
If you need to create an Omnipod ID:
1. Navigate to https:// www.omnipod.com/setup.
2. Follow the on-screen instructions to set up your account.
4.2. Choosing a Controller or Smartphone
Before setting up your Omnipod 5 System, decide whether you want to use the
Insulet-provided controller or your personal smartphone for the Omnipod 5 app.
You can nd a list of compatible smartphones at omnipod.com/compatibility.
Settings and history are stored on the device (Omnipod 5 controller or
smartphone) that you choose. If you decide later to use a dierent device, you will
need to start setup again on the new device. If you are wearing a Pod and need to
switch devices, you will need to deactivate your Pod and activate a new one.
