Abstract

Background: Mobile health apps could help reduce human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) transmission in adolescents. A multidisciplinary group developed the HIV Info Corner app to provide information about HIV transmission, risk behaviors, and prevention. Objectives: This research aimed to evaluate the usability of the HIV Info Corner app and its usefulness as perceived by potential users. Methods: 15 adolescents engaged in meetings and performed 5 tasks. Usability was evaluated using the System Usability Scale (SUS) and the Nielsen Severity Scale. Usefulness was evaluated using the Intrinsic Motivation Inventory (IMI). Results: 10 usability problems were found; 8 were considered minor problems and 2 classified as major. Conclusion: Users considered the information in the HIV Data Corner app relevant, satisfying their requirements. © Copyright 2021 Creative Health Care Management.
