The findings underscore the need for comprehensive improvements to enhance the Sehaty app's usability, reliability, security, and accessibility. Addressing these challenges through technical optimisation, user-centred design, enhanced data protection, and targeted training can support broader adoption and align the app's development with Saudi Arabia's Vision 2030 digital health goals.
