Abstract
Purpose: This study aimed to develop and evaluate a mobile application focusing on developmental support care for infants born prematurely.

Methods: An application was developed using the analysis, design, development, implementation, and evaluation model. In the analysis phase, previous research was evaluated through big data text-mining and a literature review. In the design phase, the preliminary content of the application was designed, and the content validity and comprehension were verified. A hybrid application was developed and used by eight experts and ten users, who evaluated the layout of the mobile application and their satisfaction with it.

Results: The content of the designed application comprised a diary, customized information, developmental play, and community. The mean scores for layout were 3.73¡¾0.47 and 3.43¡¾0.68 out of 4 points among the experts and users, respectively. Users¡¯ mean satisfaction score was 3.70¡¾0.70 out of 5 points.

Conclusion: The information provided by the mobile application was evaluated as consistent and systematic. The application was also found to be satisfactory by infants¡¯ parents. The mobile application developed through this study is expected to be effective in supporting the development of children born prematurely.
