In the United States, young men who have sex with men (YMSM) and young transgender women (YTGW) are disproportionality affected by HIV. To overcome this public health problem, we created and tested the mLab application (app), a novel mobile health (mHealth) that offers HIV prevention information and an imaging algorithm for interpreting the at-home HIV test. This study assessed the mLab app usability for HIV testing and its relation to users' education and health literacy. The results showed high user satisfaction and perceived usability of mLab to provide accessible HIV testing solutions for YMSM and YTGW. Findings suggest that the rigorous user-centered design of the mLab app supported a usable app independent of education and health literacy levels.
在美国，男男性行为者（MSM）和年轻跨性别女性（YTGW）青年受到 HIV 的不成比例影响。为了克服这一公共卫生问题，我们开发并测试了 mLab 应用程序（app），这是一种新型的移动健康（mHealth），提供 HIV 预防信息和在家中进行 HIV 测试的成像算法。本研究评估了 mLab app 用于 HIV 检测的可用性及其与用户教育和健康素养的关系。结果表明，mLab 为 MSM 和 YTGW 提供了便捷的 HIV 检测解决方案，用户对此非常满意，也认为其具有良好的可用性。研究结果表明，mLab app 的严格以用户为中心的设计支持了一种独立于教育和健康素养水平的可用应用程序。
