"I purchased these Omnipod Adhesive Overlays to help keep my pod from falling off when going in and out of the pool. It did well and was able to keep the pod from falling off. My only complaint is that paying $10 for a thin piece of adhesive paper is a bit expensive. That's $1. 50 each with shipping costs. Should be less expensive."
"Pod placement is not always easily reached especially when long term use dictates less convenient areas be used. The lack of stiff backing over the entire non sticky side makes avoiding significant creases and folds impossible at times"
"I love Omnipod, but my biggest problem has been pods falling off early before the 3 days are up. I live in Florida, so between the sweat and humidity, I’ve lost so many to the adhesive coming loose. PodPals are literally the only overpatch that work for me and keeps them on for the full 3 days. They don’t irritate my sensitive skin at all and still stick so well. Super impressed and now I automatically put a PodPal on with every new pod change. They should come with the Omnipods because they are necessary!"
"The pod pals are the best for keeping the omnipod in place, particularly when out in the summer heat. Both swimming and working up a sweat working in the yard, the pods stay in place. I've tried several other brands, found from competing companies, and these by far are the best both for wearing and for placing it over the omnipod."
"New to the Omnipod, we were surprised the overlays aren't included with the pods. We tried a less expensive overlay but it wasn't easy to use. We like the PodPals well enough that we'll continue the extra expense for now."
"I love the podpals and will not use the pod without them. My bods would fall off without these. I also really like the Site Hero Sample Pack. It is useful if your skin reacts poorly to the pods, tape and/or meters. Really worth it!"
"No skin irritation like some off brands I’ve tried. Adhesive seems to be same as on the pod itself. It is a bit difficult to put on. Perhaps you can put the peel off tape on both ends so you can peel it off as you put it in place."
"I'm NOT a get my nails done every week type of woman. I laid on the ground to fetch up eggs one of my hens laid under the ramp we use to the front door. I carried40-50lb of chicken feed into the henhouse, Dog food to the back door, etc. the way I was raised Obviously, I am the type of person pod pals are MADE for. Drives me a bit nuts I have to have someone put them on for me, I'm not as limber as used to be, but these things are a LOT better than paper Tape, my previous 'Safety' Device."
"I have used them before and they work great. I have been using another product from Amazon and I have totally reacted to them. Maybe it is the heat or something, but I was red and itchy and overall miserable. I ordered these as my sites were so inflamed. Thank you!"
"I've only used two so far but veryy satisfied with them. They're hard to work with as they easily stick to itself. Practice may help."
