I don’t find it implausible that it works well (perfectly?!?) for someone. Calling your experiments worthless is pretty rude. Telling you what YOUR basal and ICR settings should look like is beyond insulting. I think this thread pretty much sums up the frustration of the auto mode for someone with near normal glucose control. > [@The Auto Mode experience: 670G two weeks in](https://forum.fudiabetes.org/t/the-auto-mode-experience-670g-two-weeks-in/2005): > > Checking back in, here at the end of my second week on auto. Thought it might be interesting to give a more experiential version of what it’s like. First off, It looks the like a regular pump, but it ain’t. I’m just starting to get my head around that. At the macro level, the biggest difference is that you can’t wing it, the way you can with a regular pump. If you’re used to a lot of hands-on, stick ‘n’ rudder control over what your pump is doing, as I have been, this is a big adjustment. F’rin… For most people, who have high A1c’s and tolerate 200’s well, I have no doubt the 670 is a godsend. For those used to normal bg control, it seems that the inflexibility of the system can frustrate to no end. --- _[View the full topic](https://forum.fudiabetes.org/t/what-is-currently-available-in-diabetes-management-devices/4064)._
