Mobile health apps have the potential to aid in patient recovery and promote healthy lifestyles. However, some apps are misguided in their development if they fail to address a specific problem or just collect data without translating it into useful information for users. Properly evaluating usability is also important to ensure efficiency and user satisfaction. When developing an app, developers must consider relevant technologies, stakeholders, and regulatory requirements. They should also involve clinicians to help ensure the app meets real needs and will be adopted.

1. Why Mobile Health Apps Sometimes Go Against
the Grain
Mobile App industry

2. Mobile Apps for the HealthCare Organizations
Gaming apps is becoming more and more creative in engaging with its audience,
even the normal healthcare apps.
The possibilities of such apps only seem to exponentially increase the more they’re
put to use aiding patient recovery, promoting healthy lifestyles and
complementing medical training.
However, some technical and non-technical issues are unique in mobile
application development that healthcare organizations should consider outside
the realm of patient therapy

3. The App Development is Misguided
Besides the elegant appeal of a health app, if it fails to address a specific problem,
it is neither considered useful and subsequently not adhered to. If it simply
monitors a physiologic parameter, a person’s mood/ collect data because an app is
able to do so is a recipe for failure.
Whether be a patient or clinician, data must be collected only to translate a
message to the end-user.

4. Under Evaluating Usability of Medical App
Developing an app must include an in-depth consideration of user experience
without which absolute efficiency and satisfaction cannot be achieved in a
particular environment.
So, what goes into making an extraordinary medical healthcare app? Yes, app
design and user experience.

5. No Strategy to HealthCare Landscape
Let’s address a few questions here.
* What technologies are available to address your app’s goal?
* How can you improve or add to them?
* Can the technology be used by multiple stakeholders?
* Is my technology more valuable when incorporated into another offering (partnering with another
technology)?

6. Building to Regulatory Specification
No matter how many wow factor an app comprise, unless it meets regulatory
requirements, new proposed regulations regarding handling of data from apps
might affect development- the final standards are forthcoming.

7. Allude to the Lack of Clinical Involvement
The lack of clinician input in the development of many technologies many
processes need to be changed. Starting from personal schedule to instituting
hospital case managers who advise patients on mobile apps, the connectivity of
mHealth tools will be an important aspect of meaningful use adoption.
Selling an app does not translate to adoption but only a good app does!
