5022+
<p>Before that, there were two repositories with a lot of common code; often requiring updates for each <abbr title="contains project files and each file's revision history">repository</abbr> to provide a single improved feature.</p>
5023+
<p>To make development easier moving forward and to facilitate adding <abbr title="Insulet tubeless insulin pump; Loop supports Eros (with RileyLink) and DASH. Eros is also known as Classic, UST400, and System.">Omnipod</abbr> 5 Pod support, the OmnipodKit <abbr title="contains project files and each file's revision history">repository</abbr> was created to replace the two older <abbr title="for Loop, submodules are repositories defined in the Workspace repository that are required to build the app">submodules</abbr>, which are now removed from <abbr title="With a capital L, Loop is one of several do-it-yourself artifical pancreas systems">Loop</abbr>.</p>

<p>OmniKit was used to communicate with Classic (also known as Eros or Generation 3) Pods using a <abbr title="radio-frequency device Loop uses to control Eros pods (aka. Gen 3) and older Medtronic pumps">RileyLink</abbr></p>

<p>OmniBLE was used to communicate with DASH Pods with direct Bluetooth connection</p>
5031+
<ul>
5032+
<li>This is now replaced with <strong>OmnipodKit</strong></li>
5033+
<li>The method developed for DASH pods originally used a <em>keep-connected</em> method</li>
5034+
<li>Three minutes after the last message exchange between the phone and Pod, the Pod would initiate a disconnect from the Bluetooth channel (a characteristic of those Pods)</li>
5035+
<li>The 3-minute disconnect could be detected and an immediate reconnect be initiatied by <abbr title="operating system used by Apple Mobile devices (iPhone, iPod, iPad)">iOS</abbr> giving a 3-minute heartbeat for these pods</li>
5036+
<li>We now believe that keeping the DASH Pods connected may lead to heavier battery load with potentially more Faults<ul>
5037+
<li>This began to be critical when the new version of DASH Pods, using Atlas cards, began to be delivered in spring of 2025, see: <a href="#increase-in-dash-faults">Increase in DASH Faults</a></li>
5038+
</ul>
5039+
</li>
5040+
<li>Furthermore, several iPhone models, iPhone 16/17e, were very slow to make connection with Atlas DASH pods: <a href="#keep-alive-atlas-or-inplay-dash-pods">Keep Alive: Atlas or InPlay DASH Pods</a></li>

5045+
<li>The intial version with <abbr title="Insulet tubeless insulin pump; Loop supports Eros (with RileyLink) and DASH. Eros is also known as Classic, UST400, and System.">Omnipod</abbr> 5 support used the Bluetooth <em>keep-connected</em> method; but this did not provide a heartbeat for <abbr title="Insulet tubeless insulin pump; Loop supports Eros (with RileyLink) and DASH. Eros is also known as Classic, UST400, and System.">Omnipod</abbr> 5 Pods</li>
5046+
<li>When developing a new method, connect on demand for the <abbr title="operating system used by Apple Mobile devices (iPhone, iPod, iPad)">iOS</abbr>/Pod pair, not only was a heartbeat developed for <abbr title="Insulet tubeless insulin pump; Loop supports Eros (with RileyLink) and DASH. Eros is also known as Classic, UST400, and System.">Omnipod</abbr> 5 Pods, but this new technique appears to greatly reduce the 203 Fault frequency for Atlas DASH Pods<ul>
5047+
<li>This new version: nicknamed <em>ble-heartbeat</em> was a move in the right direction</li>
5048+
<li>Because the Bluetooth connection is only opened when the app wants to communicate with the Pod, the interaction appears slower to the user: only a few seconds, but noticeable</li>
5049+
</ul>
5050+
</li>
5051+
<li>The next version, nicknamed <em>eager-connect</em>, arose from analysis of what is going wrong with iPhone 16/17e models when initiating a Bluetooth connection to Atlas Pods<ul>
5052+
<li>There are a lot of technical details but the short version is that with iPhone 16/17e the Bluetooth connection could get stuck and it could take seconds to minutes for nominal communication to begin<ul>
5053+
<li>If you read the <abbr title="Pull Request - a formal method to request changes to a repository">PR</abbr>, you may see language about the system getting "wedged" where the <abbr title="operating system used by Apple Mobile devices (iPhone, iPod, iPad)">iOS</abbr> and Pod states were not communicating and suffered from a very-long timeout before trying again</li>
5054+
</ul>
5055+
</li>
5056+
<li>The <em>eager-connect</em> method, senses if the connection is taking too long and restarts the process<ul>
5057+
<li>With iPhone 16/17e, the connection is much faster: a few seconds instead of seconds to minutes</li>
5058+
<li>For all other phones, the <em>eager-connection</em> is ready to communicate with the pod in a few seconds, so the user can still notice a slight delay compared to the <em>keep-connected</em> method, but faster than with <em>ble-heartbeat</em> method</li>
