Testing the feasibility and mechanism of impact of FindMyApps, a tablet intervention consisting of a selection tool to help persons with dementia find usable apps for self-management and meaningful activities and a training that supports informal carers to employ errorless learning principles to help people with dementia to learn how to use the tablet and the tool.~An exploratory pilot randomized controlled trial was carried out with a mixed-methods design. Twenty persons with mild dementia and carer dyads were randomly assigned to the FindMyApps group (n = 10) that used the FindMyApps training and selection tool, or a control condition that just got a tablet (n = 10). After informal carers had received the training, the dyads in the experimental group started with the three-month intervention. Pre and post-test measurements consisted of questionnaires and post-test semi-structured interviews.
