Study Summary

This trial will test the feasibility of using MedRem, a novel medication reminder and tracking system, on wearable wrist devices. The app will be loaded onto two Apple Watch 4s for use during the study. One of the major challenges in developing interactive systems for wrist devices is their form factor. The touch screens available on these devices are tiny and much smaller compared to smart phones and tablet computers. MedRem enables user interactions by incorporating speech recognition and text-to-speech features along with clever interface design. The tiny display of the device is used for minimal inputs and outputs, while a user can retrieve and provide more information from/to the system through voice
