Brief Summary: Diabetes education and self-management support can be delivered via mobile phones. This protocol aims to assess the feasibility and acceptability of Well Feet, a conversational agent, as a diabetic foot care companion. By utilizing feedback and responses to evaluative questions posted on the app's interface, the investigators intend to examine the app's technical, functional, and operational feasibility.
Detailed Description: Diabetes puts patients with diabetes at risk of foot complications. Besides well managed diabetes, providing diabetes foot care education and self-management support is key to reducing the risk of developing diabetic foot ulcers, a serious and costly complication of diabetes. Although, education and self-management support for people with diabetes can improve patients' quality of life, they are still commonly not provided or inadequate. Digital technologies have the potential to offer a new convenient, interactive, and engaging mode of self-management education and support.

This study aims to examine the feasibility of the Well Feet app for diabetes foot care education and self-management support in promoting optimal foot care behaviour. In recognizing that many people with diabetes, especially the elderly, require the support of informal carers, the app also targets their knowledge and support needs.
