Purpose

This study is examining whether the Klue app is effective in detecting missed or late meal boluses in patients with Type 1 diabetes. The app is programmed onto an Apple Watch and will detect potential missed boluses from hand motion. It will send text alerts to the user asking if they have bolused. This is a pilot study and will assess whether there is a change in the number of missed meal boluses in the two weeks prior to each visit. If the findings are significant, this software can be integrated in future closed-loop algorithms for automatic insulin delivery.
