Abstract: In The Lancet Digital Health, Zinzuwadia and Singh commented on the bias and inequity in studies that make use of wearable devices among the general population.1 We appreciate their efforts to widen the known issue of insufficient representation from racially minoritised people, to people from low-income or rural communities, and other populations with poorer access to digital literacy. However, they did not properly address older populations, especially those who are most likely to benefit from remote monitoring and wearable device technology—people living with age-related cognitive decline and dementia.
