Summary
This study tested whether an 8-week sleep coaching program delivered through a smartphone app is practical and acceptable for cancer survivors and their bedroom partners. Forty participants were enrolled to see if they would stick with the program and find it helpful. The goal was to gather early feedback, not to prove the app works for everyone.
