Abstract

Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a common mental disorder among children and adolescents. In Austria, approximately 5% of children and adolescents have ADHD, which includes 89,000 children. This paper describes our approach of developmental evaluation of a smartphone app designed to support parents of children with ADHD. We conducted usability tests and interviews involving eleven parents and four children iteratively. Although the general feedback was positive, the high number of identified optimizations highlights the importance of user testing.
