Perceptions of the Use of Mobile Apps to Assess Sleep-Dependent Memory in Older Adults With Subjective and Objective Cognitive Impairment: Focus Group Approach
Our findings underscore the importance of app flexibility in accommodating diverse user needs and preferences as well as in overcoming barriers. While some individuals required high-level assistance, others expressed the ability to navigate the app independently or with minimal support. In conclusion, older adults provided valuable insights into the app modifications, user needs, and accessibility requirements enabling home-based SDM assessment.
