Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this study is to assess the use of a mobile health intervention to improve adherence to asthma medication among adolescents. The intervention consists of an inhaler sensor strap to monitor asthma inhaler use and a mobile phone application to remind and incentivize patients to use their medication. This study will assess medication use throughout the study in patients who receive a mobile app with reminders and asthma control as measured by the ACT \[asthma control test\].
