@cathmets Welcome Jim, to the Breakthrough T1D Community Forum! Your questions are answered below:
Production off DexCom G6 will cease July 1, 2026; you will be able to continue using them if you can find any.
Tandem has notified all users that attempts are underway to make the 15-day G7 compatible with its infusion devices; continue to read your Tandem Cares newsletter for update information - and also view your update information on you Source page.
“Dunno. Should have been here by now.” Up until now I thought Tandem was the pump company with the least bad software team. Back when Dexcom got the 15 day approved they said they’d hold release until all the pump companies were ready to avoid the complications of the G7 launch. Might have been true, might have been covering for Dexcom’s other problems. Other factors are the X2 may require FDA approval to use the 15 day. Pump companies, and the FDA, have learned to submit their devices differently these days to avoid requiring new approvals for changes like this but the tslimX2 is from before multiple CGM options existed. I just scrolled through Tandems’s last investor call from November, they didn’t talk about being late with the 15 day but did mention waiting on FDA approval for the mobi Android app and a handful of other things.
I get wanting to use the 15 day version, especially if the regular G7 is regularly lasting 10 days for you. I had the original Libre 14 day before switching to the G6, two weeks was nice. How long have you been using a tslim?
Tandem is very slow to release updates. “Early 2026” means, in my opinion, December 31, 2026.
