Tips and Tricks for Capturing Your Moment
Here are a few suggestions for making your moment count on social media:
- Use a front-facing camera.
- If you don’t want to use a front-facing camera, grab a friend, a family member, or an aspiring director to record you #InTheMoment.
- Explain your moment, act it out, or express yourself in whatever way feels best. Get creative!
- Still photos work just as great as videos (e.g., at the beach, after a hike, during a competitive juggling competition).
Tandem Family:We want to hear about your moments that count
“One of the best
new features
about my t:slim X2 insulin pump is the
ability to bolus straight from my phone.* It’s discreet and convenient,
so I don’t have
to miss a
moment of the action.”
Blake
“I used to wake up 3-5 times a week because of lows, ESPECIALLY during sports seasons when I’d be coming home late and the activity would catch up to me at night. I’m so happy to use the tech with fall sports seasons.”
Amber
“As the parent of a T1D child, I used to wake up every few hours to check on him. With Control-IQ [technology], I sleep soundly knowing that his pump will work to keep him in range (and that alarms will wake me when necessary).”
Lisa
“The freedom I can have while playing sports with the t:slim [X2 pump] on. College volleyball practice can be intense and I can control my blood sugar fairly easily while playing.”

Responsible Use of Control-IQ Technology
Even with advanced systems such as the t:slim X2 insulin pump with Control-IQ technology, you are still responsible for actively managing your diabetes.
Control-IQ technology does not prevent all high and low blood glucose events. The system is designed to help reduce glucose variability, but it requires your accurate input of information, such as meals and periods of sleep or exercise. Control-IQ technology will not function as intended unless you use all system components, including your CGM, infusion sets and pump cartridges, as instructed. Importantly, the system cannot adjust your insulin dosing if the pump is not receiving CGM readings. Because there are situations and emergencies that the system may not be capable of identifying or addressing, always pay attention to your symptoms and treat according to your healthcare provider’s recommendations.
*Bolus delivery from the t:connect mobile app requires a compatible smartphone model and operating system, an app update, a remote software update on the customer’s t:slim X2 insulin pump and additional training. Only available to customers who reside in the United States.
Important Safety Information
RX ONLY. The t:slim X2 pump and Control-IQ technology are intended for single patient use. The t:slim X2 pump and Control-IQ technology are indicated for use with U-100 insulin only. t:slim X2 insulin pump: The t:slim X2 insulin pump with interoperable technology is an alternate controller enabled (ACE) pump that is intended for the subcutaneous delivery of insulin, at set and variable rates, for the management of diabetes mellitus in people requiring insulin. The pump is able to reliably and securely communicate with compatible, digitally connected devices, including automated insulin dosing software, to receive, execute, and confirm commands from these devices. The t:slim X2 pump is indicated for use in individuals six years of age and greater. Control-IQ technology: Control-IQ technology is intended for use with a compatible integrated continuous glucose monitor (iCGM, sold separately) and ACE pump to automatically increase, decrease, and suspend delivery of basal insulin based on iCGM readings and predicted glucose values. It can also deliver correction boluses when the glucose value is predicted to exceed a predefined threshold. Control-IQ technology is intended for the management of Type 1 diabetes mellitus in persons six years of age and greater.

t:connect mobile app: The feature set available within the t:connect mobile app is dependent on the pump software version and the compatible smartphone’s model and operating system (OS).
- The Display and Data Upload feature set provides a secondary display of pump and continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) information, including display of your pump alerts and alarms, and enables wireless uploading of pump and CGM data to the Tandem cloud through an internet or wireless data connection. Standard carrier data rates may apply.
