dc.description.abstractThe increasing use of mobile health (mHealth) tools for self-management is considered to be important to improve health effects for patients with chronic NCDs (noncommunicable diseases). This development is supported by an increasing number of available mHealth apps. The apps range from disease management apps (e.g., diabetes diary) to health and fitness apps (e.g., dietary apps and workout apps). However, there seems to be a lack of motivation from most users to keep using these health apps over a long period of time [1]. This may be because of the way these apps were designed and developed, i.e. lack of co-participatory design techniques and lack of a tested developer guideline for creating mHealth solutions. The motivation behind this workshop is to identify motivational factors which will increase adoption and usage of mHealth apps. Since 2001, several of the presenters have been working on self-management tools for people with diabetes [2, 3]. The main tool is a diabetes diary – the “Few Touch Application” (Norwegian, “Diabetesdagboka”), available for free from Google Play, and used by several thousands of users [4-8].en_US
