AB  - There is a growing need to implement and evaluate technological solutions that allow early detection of age-related adverse outcomes, like frailty, and enable assessment of lifestyle habits that can be maintained or improved to prevent such adverse outcomes. In this study, the sample is composed by older adults aged 65–80 years, recruited from the community, and who agreed to use an electronic device ACM Kronowise® 2.0. This electronic device allows a proactive and continuous monitoring of circadian health, physical activity, and sleep and eating habits. The participants used the ACM Kronowise® 2.0 during a period from seven to ten days. In the end, the participants were invited to share their experience and satisfaction with the device’s use and functionality and to express their awareness of healthy habits and usefulness of technologies in health. Data obtained can be used as a set of guidelines in the selection of suitable technological equipment for older adults. Understanding seniors’ perceptions about the use of technology are crucial to optimize design and application and improve educational strategies that may reduce caregiver burden. In our view, the implications of this study’ findings for clinical practice include the possibility to develop and validate tools to improve older’ people lifestyle and timely prevention of frailty progress.
