Summary

This study tested a mobile app called AIM2ACT that helps teens aged 12-15 with poorly controlled asthma work with their caregivers to manage symptoms. The app includes daily check-ins, goal setting, and training videos. The goal was to see if using the app improves asthma control and long-term self-management.
