Various mobile health application for monitoring of diabetes outcomes and supporting the self-management is available in the market. However, the effectiveness of it is still unclear. This systematic literature review was conducted to determine the effectiveness of mobile health application compared to the conventional methods in managing blood glucose level, body weight, and self-management activities among patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus. A literature search on relevant online databases was performed to identify the randomised controlled trials studies (RCTs) that evaluated the effectiveness of the mobile health application. The relevant studies were identified and appraised according to the review protocol from Joanna Briggs Institute. Six randomised controlled trial studies has been identified and included in the review. In this review, a total of 843 participants were enrolled, mean age of 53.9 years old and all of them were diagnosed with T2DM. All the studies are methodologically good however limitation was identified in their concealment technique. All the included studies reported an improvement in glucose control, a decrease in body mass index (BMI), and an improvement in adherence to self-management activities. Mobile health application effectively improves glucose control (HbA1c), BMI, and self-management activities of patients with type 2 diabetes.
