Trust in information and communication technology devices is an important factor, considering the role of technology in carrying out supporting tasks in everyday human activities. The level of trust in technology will influence its application and adoption. Recognizing the importance of trust in technology, researchers in this study will examine trust components for the development of a type 2 diabetes mobile application. The results of this study resulted in three major focuses, namely the application design (consisting of architecture), UI design, and evaluation of trust factors of the application: functionality, ease of use, usefulness, security and privacy, and cost. This analysis of trust components will be useful for the application or adoption by users of a type 2 diabetes mellitus mobile application so that users will trust the application both in terms of functionality and the generated information.
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a metabolic disorder wherein the patients require DM management to keep their blood glucose under proper and regular control. Diabetes mellitus can be managed with the help of technologies, one of which is mobile health. Mobile health is an innovation in telemedicine that utilizes gadgets as a medium to access digitally based health information and services by utilizing electronic devices connected to the Internet. Mobile health services are distinguished based on interactions between users and medical personnel; namely, interactive and non-interactive services. The developed application can integrate Android mobile application software with supporting hardware, such as a glucometer, a wearable band, a heart rate sensor, a treadmill, and an exercise bike. The provided features in this mobile application include the monitoring of medication, food intake, exercise, and sleep. This study’s goal was to create a mobile application architecture for type 2 diabetes mellitus mobile applications. This research focused on developing an architecture for mobile diabetes applications, a hardware block diagram design, and an architecture of sensors for a type 2 diabetes mellitus mobile application.
