An mHealth app is a mobile application designed to support medical and public health practices through smartphones or tablets. Chronic conditions such as diabetes, hypertension, and cardiovascular diseases are becoming more common across all age groups. These illnesses require continuous monitoring, medication management, and lifestyle adjustments. mHealth apps provide tools for tracking vital signs, logging symptoms, setting medication reminders, and communicating with healthcare providers. This makes managing chronic conditions more convenient and less dependent on in-person visits. These digital tools offer cost-effective, remote solutions, with healthcare systems overwhelmed by chronic disease cases. As a result, the rising global burden of chronic diseases is a major factor pushing the demand for innovative mHealth applications.
The COVID-19 pandemic significantly accelerated the shift toward remote healthcare, making telehealth and mobile health apps more mainstream. Even after the COVID-19 pandemic, patients continue to seek convenient, safe ways to access care from home. mHealth apps offer solutions such as video consultations, digital prescriptions, health alerts, and remote monitoring-all without needing to visit a clinic. This is especially beneficial for rural populations, elderly patients, or individuals with mobility challenges. The growing preference for home-based and on-demand healthcare has established mHealth apps as essential tools, further increasing their adoption and expanding the global market for digital health services.
In 2024, the medical app segment dominated with a larger share as these apps support a wide range of functions, such as appointment booking, virtual consultations, medication reminders, chronic disease management, and telehealth services.
The Android segment is expected to experience significant growth during the forecast period, due to its vast global user base and affordability.
In 2024, the North America mHealth apps market dominated with the largest share, due to its advanced healthcare infrastructure, widespread smartphone use, and high healthcare spending.
The Asia Pacific mHealth apps market is experiencing significant growth, driven by rising mobile phone usage, growing health awareness, and increasing investments in digital health.
