Many mental
health conditions
have behavioral
and physiological
components (in

patients
experience / self

Digital Phenotyping
Utilizing the phones
(or wearables) many
sensors such as GPS,
accelerometer, call /
text logs, ambient
light, wife/bluetooth,
power on/off,
charging etc to learn
about behavior.
Physiological sensors
like heart rate on
wearables.

Challenges
Do they work?
Finding an App
APA Workgroup on
App Evaluation.
Why Static App
Ratings Dont Work
There is no A+ or
88/100
medication or
therapy
Each person is
different
Apps are dynamic
Picking an App
GROUND
Picking an App
Can it share data with EMR
Can you print out your data
Can you export/download you data
Can it share data with other user data
tools (eg, Apple HealthKit, FitBit)
