Feature
When replacing a spent Omnipod, at the cannula insertion confirmation screen, I almost always end up opening the flashlight to illuminate the Omnipod display window in order to better see the blue cannula. Doing so requires going out-of-app, which can cause problems. I've come to rely on this more and more as I've gotten older and my eyes have gotten worse, especially after having to get reading glasses.
I'd like to add a button to the check cannula screen that allows the flashlight to be toggled on and off.
The code checks for flashlight availability before displaying the button, and offers toggle functionality. Further, if the user exits the view before turning off the flashlight, it is turned off automatically.
These are emulator screenshots. I am not a UX designer, and would be happy to have help with UX.
User Impact
Tens of millions of people the USA alone over the age of 45 have diabetes. Over 90% of adults over age 45 have presbyopia (age related difficulty focusing on near objects). My personal, anecdotal experience requires some assistance checking the cannula in darker conditions because of presbyopia, which millions of other diabetes patients experience as well. This change aids me significantly.
