to develop and validate a mobile application for self-care in sexual and reproductive health for women living with HIV/AIDS.

a six-stage methodological study: literature review; content organization; application development; validation by experts; adaptation after validation; validation by the target audience; and adaptation after validation. Health professionals and women living with HIV/AIDS participated. Descriptive statistics, Content Validity Index, were used, considering a minimum agreement value of 0.80 and Gwet's AC1 test.

the application was validated by a multidisciplinary team composed of professionals in gynecology/obstetrics and infectious diseases, yielding a Content Validity Index of 0.93. Additionally, it was validated by the target audience, achieving a score of 0.94. It was well accepted and found to be reliable in validation by experts (AC1 = 0.446; p < 0.001) and by the target audience (AC1 = 0.483; p < 0.001). All professionals pointed out the personal contribution and educational potential of the application.

The application represents an essential evidence-based technological tool for strengthening self-care in the sexual and reproductive health of women living with HIV/AIDS. Intervention studies are therefore suggested.
