Summary

This study tests a smartphone app called SMART@Home designed to help teenagers with asthma manage their condition. The app sends daily reminders for medication and diary entries, provides educational content, and connects to Bluetooth devices like a spirometer to track lung function. Researchers will see if the app improves medication adherence and engagement over six months in about 40 teens aged 12–17.
