摘要
We intend to evaluate the usability of a mobile app developed for the self-management of T2DM. A pilot usability cross-sectional study was performed with a convenience sample of 6 smartphone users aged 45 years. Participants performed tasks autonomously in a mobile app to assess if users could complete them and filled out a usability and satisfaction questionnaire. About half of the tasks had a successful completion rate. The result of the usability questionnaire was 64/100, below the acceptable value, but the satisfaction value was considered good. This study was fundamental as it allowed us to verify which improvements should be implemented in the next version of the app, contributing to its better acceptance.
