Summary

Interventions

DEVICE

MyT1DHero

MyT1DHero is an app with two separate interfaces, one for the parent and one for the child, that work together to help them communicate about diabetes management. The child receives system reminders to enter their blood glucose numbers, and parents receive a notification about each blood glucose test their child enters. Parents are also able to use the app to communicate with their child about their plan for care. The app has customizable blood glucose reminders and ranges, videos of support from other adolescents with T1D, snack lists, and other educational information on T1D.

DEVICE

Other T1D Mobile App

A mobile app will be used in this control/comparison group that only has blood sugar testing reminders and logging capabilities. There will be no other components of the app.
