CONFIDENCE demonstrated preliminary efficacy at lowering financial strain in a feasibility study, yet attendance in group videoconference sessions was low (62%). CONFIDENCE was revised to integrate the NeuViCareTM application (app) that leveraged an interactive artificial intelligence (AI) assistant and text message reminders to engage participants between sessions. This study examined whether app registration was associated with attendance, as well as overall utilization of app features.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Research Design and Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>CONFIDENCE was delivered in a community-based organization, where registration for the NeuViCareTM app was offered at no cost to complement the 4-week facilitated group-based intervention.
