Description
View your current glucose, trend, and other important information directly on your phone with the iLet App!
The iLet App is part of the iLet Bionic Pancreas system, an automated insulin delivery system that reduces the need to make decisions about your diabetes management – because it makes the decisions for you. The iLet needs only one number – your weight.
After startup, the iLet learns about YOU – your basal insulin needs, how to correct you to target, and how much insulin you need for your meals. The goal of the iLet is to reduce the burden of diabetes management.
-No carb counting*
Instead of carb counting everything on your plate, the iLet just needs an estimate of the carbs in your meal — Usual for me, More or Less.
-No corrections
The iLet makes the corrections for you. If you’re trending high, it will automatically give you more insulin to bring you back in range. If you’re trending low, it will reduce your current insulin dosage.
-iLet algorithms
The “Bionic” part of the iLet that communicates with your CGM and makes all of the insulin dosing decisions—no carb counting, no correction factors, no adjustments.
-No pre-set basal rate
iLet learns your needs and automatically adjusts your basal rate on the go.
-Simple setup
No settings are required to be entered or adjusted—the iLet system only needs your weight to get started.
-Small but mighty
Small (2.3” x 3.5” x 0.6”), lightweight and easy to put in your pocket or clip to your clothing.
-Talks to your Dexcom CGM
Your iLet device communicates directly with your Dexcom G6 or G7 CGM to know where your glucose is headed.
-Water resistant
If you drop your iLet in water—no problem! It’s protected in up to 12 feet of water for up to 30 minutes.
-iLet App
The iLet App displays data from your iLet home screen in real time so you can view your current glucose, trend, notifications, and other important information directly on your phone. It also supports data synchronization, reports and updates for your iLet and allows you to share your data with your healthcare provider.
Please note that any changes made to your iLet therapy settings should be done under the guidance and supervision of a qualified healthcare professional. Before making any adjustments, it is important to consult with your doctor to ensure that the changes are appropriate for your individual needs and health status.

Ratings and Reviews
iLet is a relief
I have had diabetes for over 35 years and I’ve tried most of the insulin pumps on the market. I have felt a little burned out recently and when I found out about the iLet and how it makes 100% of the insulin dosing decisions for me, I decided I needed to give it a try. This is a game changer for me. Over the last two weeks I’ve been over 80% time in range and have had far less low blood sugars than I have in the past. The iLet app is great. since my desire was to not have to fiddle with my pump as often, the app now allows me to see what my pump is delivering and what my trends are without even looking at my device. It mirrors everything I wanna see. Now I just wish they would come out with a way to announce a meal on the ILET app. Please please please.

Not sure about some of the bad experiences I’m reading about on here…
My a1c has been low to mid 6’s since I can remember. I’ve always just been on shots. I never wanted to use a pump bc of all the hassle and my numbers were always good. I tried iLet bc I was frustrated with my “rage bolusing” and I was always fighting lows after fighting highs.
The ilet hasn’t changed my A1c’s (6.0-6.6 since starting in sept 2023), but it’s allowed me to “let go” a little and not worry constantly about my glucose levels.
Again, this is the only pump I’ve ever wanted to try bc it looked so easy to use with not a lot of work. And I’m really glad I took the leap!
The new app is way better than the old one. I can look at my phone to see if/when I announced and what my level is. Nice features.
Not ready for prime time.
The iLet decides when to give insulin based upon your meal announcements and what it has learned about your habits. In theory, you never have to count carbs or worry about how much insulin to give.
The corollary is that you can’t make any decisions. You can’t decide you need more, or less, insulin. There is no way to make this machine work as a standard insulin pump.
After following the instructions, I found the iLet simply wasn’t doing the job. There were many nights when my blood sugar sat above 300 for hours. But you can’t argue with the iLet - if it “thinks” you have enough insulin, you’re expected to simply wait until your body agrees.
Betabionics doesn’t have a backup plan for what to do if this machine doesn’t work for you. At first they told me to wait and be patient while my glucose levels were dangerously high. Allow the iLet to learn. I’ve had Type-1 diabetes for more than 40 years, and have never been under such poor control as with the iLet.
If pressed enough they’ll advise that you unhook the pump for a while and use syringes or to change your infusion set. But ultimately if the iLet doesn’t work for you, you’re out of luck.
I wanted the iLet to work. I like the concept. But it’s just not ready. It now sits in my desk drawer, unusable. For anyone considering purchasing an iLet, consider a Tandem or Medtronic or Omnipod instead - something with a track record.
Developer Response ,
Hello,
The iLet is designed to learn each individual user and makes 100% of the dosing decisions so the user doesn’t have to. When following training guidelines, the iLet algorithms will learn to react over time to the user’s highs and lows, based on meal announcements and glucose levels. Because the iLet works so differently from other systems, training from a certified iLet trainer is important so that the user know how best to help the iLet learn their insulin needs. Please give us a call at 1-855-745-3800 and we can help with questions or troubleshooting with the iLet.
