Summary

This study will test a mobile app version of a bladder diary in 40 Portuguese adults with overactive bladder or urinary incontinence. Participants will use the app for one month and then answer questions about how easy it was to use and whether they prefer it over paper diaries. The goal is to see if the app is practical and well-liked by both patients and doctors.
