Mobile health (mHealth) solutions such as diabetes self-management apps improve glycated hemoglobin, particularly those that provide a feedback loop between patient and health care provider. mHealth apps that incorporate behaviorally designed interventions can improve patient access to diabetes self-management education and ongoing support. The mySugr mobile app was designed to support patients in their diabetes self-management. Most studies of mHealth apps were conducted under controlled conditions and did not elucidate the nuances of patient perceptions and utilization of these apps in everyday life. In this article, we discuss findings from real-world observations of changes in glycemic control and patient satisfaction associated with the use of the mySugr mHealth app.
