 The study examined health app use among mobile phone owners in the United States. It found that about half 58.23% of mobile phone users had downloaded a health-related mobile app with fitness and nutrition being the most common categories used. Common reasons for not having downloaded apps were lack of interest, cost, and concern about apps collecting their data. Individuals more likely to use health apps tended to be younger, have higher incomes, be more educated, be Latino slash Hispanic, and have a BMI in the obese range. Cost was a significant concern among respondents, with half of them 45.7%, having stopped using some health apps due to high data entry burden, loss of interest, and hidden costs. The study suggests that app developers need to address consumer concerns and clinical trials are necessary to test the efficacy of health apps.
