We further sought to characterize app engagement and the association of app use with pregnancy outcomes.The implementation of the smartphone app was a quality improvement initiative in which the app was made available to all people receiving prenatal care at a designated federally qualified health center between December 2020 and December 2021. Individuals who both initiated prenatal care at this site before 28 weeks of gestation and delivered at our institution during the above-defined period were studied retrospectively after obtaining institutional approval. Summary statistics were used to describe app implementation and information regarding social determinants of health and depression screening. Demographics and maternal and neonatal outcomes were compared between app enrollees and patients receiving prenatal care at the same site who were not enrolled in the app. Data were analyzed using the 2-sample t test to compare continuous variables and the chi-square test to compare categorical variables.STUDY DESIGNThe implementation of the smartphone app was a quality improvement initiative in which the app was made available to all people receiving prenatal care at a designated federally qualified health center between December 2020 and December 2021.

Of those, 13.1% (n=58) screened positive for depression, and 37.9% (n=22) of those with positive screens accepted a referral to behavioral health services. A total of 483 people met the inclusion criteria for retrospective review: 264 were enrolled in the smartphone app and 219 were not. App enrollees were more likely to speak English (79.9% of app group vs 61.6% of the non-app group; P<.0001), identify as Hispanic (52.7% vs 39.7%; P=.02), and be privately insured (24.6% vs 15.5%; P=.005), and less likely to have a social determinants of health-related need (10.0% vs 21.0%; P=.01).
