User Experience of and Adherence to a Smartphone App to Maintain Behavior Change and Self-Management in Patients With Work-Related Skin Diseases: Multistep, Single-Arm Feasibility Study
The results in terms of adherence met the expectations and were consistent with those of other studies evaluating the use of apps for chronic diseases. Interaction with the app could be increased using artificial intelligence to determine eczema severity via photos. It should be investigated which subgroups have difficulties with usability to individualize the support to a greater degree during onboarding. There is a need for further research regarding the effectiveness of the MiA app on skin protection behavior, quality of life, and eczema severity.
