Q: Will this fit the Omnipod 5?
A: According to Insulet, the Omnipod Dash, Horizon, and Omnipod 5 pods are exactly the same size. Our Gripshields will fit all current model pods.
Q: Why does my GripShield not fit?
A: Our GripShields are designed with a “snap fit”. Install on your pod prior to pod application. Ensure your GripShield is complete seated by gently pinching around the base of the Gripshield. It should be a snug fit. Checkout our application video for clarification.
Q: What Overlay patches work with the GripShield?
A: Most WOVEN type patches are compatible with the GripShield without modification. Plastic type patches may require a little trimming to fit around our Gripshield.
Q: What is the best way to clean the patch adhesive off the GripShield?
A: We recommend using a gentle solvent like Unisolve or Medical Goo-Gone. The Shield can be wiped down or submerged for 60 seconds and then cleaned off.
Q: How long will the GripShield last before needing to be replaced?
A: We rotate a few colors and are still using ones from a year ago. With proper cleaning and gentle removal of the patches (Unisolve) these GripShields may hold up longer.
