Quantitative and qualitative data are reported on user experiences with mHealth apps to map the behavior, interests and needs of people with specific types of disability (physical, cognitive, sensory, emotional\/psychological, and speech). Summary results are presented for all respondents and each disability type. Slightly more than half of the participants in this sample (53.2%) reported using mHealth apps. Fitness and exercise apps were the mHealth apps most used by respondents with disabilities, followed by hospital\/clinical portal apps. Symptom and disease management apps are the least commonly used, even though these would seem to be important for people with chronic conditions. Text-based responses regarding unmet needs for mHealth apps can be sorted into accessibility needs and functionality needs. In general, respondents with sensory limitations were more likely to identify accessibility needs. However, all disability groups identified both types of unmet needs. These results can help inform research and development efforts to provide mHealth apps that meet the needs of people with disabilities.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1007\/978-3-030-58805-2_32","type":"book-chapter","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,9,10]],"date-time":"2020-09-10T12:02:54Z","timestamp":1599739374000},"page":"266-273","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":11,"title":["Survey of User Needs: Mobile Apps for mHealth and People with Disabilities"],"prefix":"10.1007","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-1295-9468","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Ben","family":"Lippincot","sequence":"first","affiliation":[]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-9430-3990","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Nicole","family":"Thompson","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3986-1011","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"John","family":"Morris","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-8639-6901","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Mike","family":"Jones","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-8370-9052","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Frank","family":"DeRuyter","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]}],"member":"297","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,9,4]]},"reference":[{"key":"32_CR1","unstructured":"Zweig, M., Shen, J., Jug, L.: Healthcare Consumers in a Digital Transition.
