IQCE Policy Brief No. 12, December 2020: "Real-World Evidence of User Engagement With Mobile Health for Diabetes Management" by Anna-Katharina Böhm
Key Findings
• Engagement with mHealth was higher for app modules with automated data collection, but initial uptake remained lower and occurred later compared to modules requiring manual data entry.
• Male users, older users and users who were recently diagnosed for the first time tended to use the app more actively.
• Although the app targets various aspects of diabetes management, most users took advantage of one specific app module.
