Journal Title: Revista Romana de Interactiune Om-Calculator - Year 2018, Vol 11, Issue 3
Abstract
In the last years, there is a growing interest in the usability of software applications for medical care. A typical category of patients that need support for the self-management of medication and life style are the diabetics. This paper aims to present an empirical study of usability evaluation of three mobile-based applications for diabetes care and a comparative analysis of the identified usability problems. The evaluation results revealed several usability problems that are mainly related to the user guidance, user support and user effort.
