Using a smartphone app and glucose monitor for type 2 diabetes
Part of Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This 8-week study tests whether using a smartphone app called SnapD along with a continuous glucose monitor (a small sensor that tracks your blood sugar throughout the day) helps people with type 2 diabetes manage their condition better. You'll keep taking your current diabetes medications without changes.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- Age 18–65 years old
- Diagnosed with type 2 diabetes and overweight or obese (BMI over 23)
- Recent blood sugar control test (HbA1c) between 6.5–9% from the last 3 months
- Able to use a smartphone, tablet, or similar device with the SnapD app
- Willing to use the SnapD app and wear a continuous glucose monitor for 8 weeks
- Not currently taking insulin or certain newer diabetes medications (like GLP-1 drugs)

This trial tests using a smartphone to help manage your blood sugar. It's for people with type 2 diabetes who take insulin and whose blood sugar is not well controlled (HbA1c 8% or higher).
This study tests whether using a smartphone app and a wearable device (like a fitness tracker), along with artificial intelligence (AI), can help people with type 2 diabetes better manage their condition and prevent complications. You would need to provide lifestyle information and use the devices for 3 months.
This study checks how well periodic continuous glucose monitoring works for adults with type 2 diabetes. You may be asked to wear a sensor that tracks glucose more often than finger-stick checks, which can help improve day-to-day glucose control.
This study tests if using a continuous glucose monitor (CGM) along with a phone app and support can help people with type 2 diabetes better manage their blood sugar over time.
This study tests whether helping you use your own health information (like blood sugar numbers) on a smartphone app can improve your diabetes self-care. You may join if your blood sugar levels are higher than target and you are not using insulin.
This trial tests if using a continuous glucose monitor (a small sensor that checks your sugar levels without fingersticks) helps young adults manage type 2 diabetes better. You will wear the sensor and use a phone app to track your glucose.
