Mobile phone App-based interventions for diabetes self-management have greater HbA1c-lowering efficacy than interventions requiring computer use.
If you are managing diabetes with an app, use one on your phone rather than a computer. The constant accessibility of a phone helps you stick to the program better, leading to lower blood sugar levels.
