Development of a User-Friendly Mobile App Builder for Personalized Health Interventions

The organization faces difficulties in enabling non-technical staff and community members to develop customized mobile health interventions. They require a universally accessible platform to facilitate easy creation of interactive health apps, automate messaging and voice communication, and leverage large data sets without extensive coding knowledge.

A mid-sized healthcare organization aiming to enhance patient engagement and health management through personalized mobile applications.

• Enable non-technical users to rapidly develop personalized, data-driven mobile health applications through an intuitive interface.
• Support multiple communication channels including SMS, IVR, and web notifications to engage patients of all ages.
• Facilitate automation of health reminders, status reporting, educational outreach, and resource sharing within local communities.
• Implement a scalable platform that allows app creation in minutes, reducing development costs and time-to-deploy.
• Enhance user engagement with smart notifications and interactive messaging.
• Ensure that apps can handle multilayered data variables with flexible scope and easy editing for different user needs.

• User-friendly visual interface modeling app creation as an intuitive, step-by-step process akin to growing a tree.
• Ability for users to create, edit, and group data variables with scope options (client-specific or app-wide).
• Template-based app components supporting automated SMS, interactive voice, and web notifications.
• Native mobile application for notification management on iOS devices.
• Stepwise app building process that guides non-technical users through primary tasks before proceeding.
• Data storage and flow separation to streamline app logic and data management.
• Excel-like variable value editor for quick modification and checking of variable data.
• Support for multi-channel operation within a single app environment.

• Communication channels such as SMS gateways, IVR systems, and web notification services
• Data management systems for storing and retrieving variable data
• Native app notification handling APIs

• User interface designed for accessibility across age groups, including children and the elderly
• Scalable architecture capable of supporting large data sets and concurrent users
• High availability and reliability for critical health notifications
• Security measures to protect sensitive health data and user information
• Performance optimized for app creation within minutes

The new platform is expected to empower non-technical staff and community leaders to develop personalized health interventions rapidly, significantly reducing development costs and time. It will facilitate automated, interactive communication between healthcare providers and patients, leading to improved health adherence, real-time health status reporting, and broader community engagement. The system aims to support diverse health initiatives including medication reminders, outbreak surveillance, health education, and resource dissemination, ultimately advancing community health outcomes efficiently and cost-effectively.
