Standards, Processes And Instruments For Assessing Usability Of Health Mobile Apps: A Systematic Literature Review

Mhealth applications have had sustained growth in recent years. However, there is scant and disorganized scientific evidence of methods for evaluating their usability and adoption. We conducted a systematic literature review to describe standards, processes, methods, and tools for evaluating mobile health software. We analyzed ten studies: two identify standards for evaluation, and seven specify tools or instruments for supporting assessment. PSSUQ, SUS, and MARS were the most referenced instruments for usability and adoption evaluation.
