Summary

This study tests a mobile app that sends personalized reminders to help older adults with diabetes manage their blood sugar, diet, and medications. 184 participants will either use the app or receive standard nurse consultations. The goal is to see if the app can improve diabetes control and quality of life without needing as much face-to-face time with nurses.

What this could lead to
