摘要：

The use of mobile health apps to improve diet and nutrition behaviors has increased in recent years. Several studies have described the benefits and advantages of this technology as a complement to interventions for improving nutrition behaviors and nutrition‐related health outcomes, including obesity indices and clinical parameters. Few of these works have developed clinical mobile health apps for children, and although parents play a critical role in children’s nutrition behaviors, work targeting parents is scarce. The work presented in this paper describes the development of the PersuHabit app, a stand-alone mobile health app targeting parents to promote the intake of fruits and vegetables (FVs) and reduce the intake of ultra-processed foods (UPF) in children aged 6 to 10 years. The paper also presents the execution of an exploratory pilot study to assess the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary effects of the PersuHabit app. The results are presented and discussed, and actions for further improvement of the PersuHabit app are identified.
