Summary

This study tests whether a voice-activated app called EngAGE can help frail, homebound older adults (age 60+) with at least two chronic conditions improve their physical function and social connection. Participants use the app at home, and researchers measure changes in chair stands, walking speed, grip strength, balance, and loneliness compared to usual care. The goal is to see if simple voice technology can make daily life easier and more active.
