Additionally, there are concerns about e-health exacerbating existing health disparities. To enhance the uptake of digital self-management interventions, the OncoAppstore was launched\u2014a landing page on a well-known Dutch platform that offers cancer survivors credits to purchase these interventions. It is unknown to what extent the nature of the OncoAppstore will influence uptake and appeal to a diverse group of cancer survivors. The current study therefore aimed to explore sociodemographic, clinical, income, and healthcare usage factors associated with its early uptake among survivors.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      OncoAppstore usage data were combined with nationwide registry data from Statistics Netherlands, the Netherlands Cancer Registry, and Dutch Hospital Data.
