Summary

This study tests whether a smartphone app called Kiso Mind is acceptable and helpful for people with schizophrenia or schizoaffective disorder. Sixty participants will either use the app plus their usual treatment, or just usual treatment alone, for 12 weeks. Researchers will measure how often people use the app and whether it improves symptoms, mood, and social functioning.
