Study Summary

The researchers are working with a technology company, AiCure, to develop a smartphone app, DOT Diary, which combines two drug adherence strategies. DOT Diary reminds people when it is time to take their medication, and uses motion-sensing technology to visually and automatically confirm the pill was swallowed. The goal of this study is to understand people's experiences using this new app while taking HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) for the prevention of HIV.

Primary Outcome

System Usability Scale (SUS) is a 10 item questionnaire with 5 response options: strongly disagree to strongly agree. These are scored 0-4. The scores are then summed up (making sure all positive responses -- increased usability -- are given the higher scores). The final score is multiplied by 2.5 Possible scores are from 0-100, with maximal usability achieving the higher score. Although the scores are 0-100, these are not percentages and should be considered only in terms of their percentile ra
