Standortdaten von deutschen Smartphone-Nutzern sind offenbar aus zehntausenden Apps abgeflossen und bei internationalen Datenhändlern gelandet. Deutschlandfunk (Bild: geralt / gemeinfrei) Das geht aus einer Recherche hervor, die der BR gemeinsam mit der Redaktion von „Netzpolitik.org“ und internationalen Partnermedien durchgeführt hat. Demnach konnten aus fast 40.000 Apps, darunter etwa „Wetter Online“, „Focus online“, „Flightradar 24“ oder „Kleinanzeigen“ ungefähre Standorte von Nutzern abgeleitet werden.

Background: Despite having evidence-based medication for opioid use disorder, dropout is one of the most common issues noted with this treatment, indicating that new strategies are needed to improve retention and engagement. Prescription digital therapeutics, which are app-based interventions prescribed by a healthcare professional, have the potential to increase adherence to medication for opioid use disorder and retention while overcoming treatment barriers, including provider capacity and patient access. Using a sham app as a control condition for a randomized clinical trial is an innovative method to establish true efficacy of these apps. Objective: This study included the development and testing of a sham smartphone app for opioid use disorder. Methods: After the sham app was developed, participants were enrolled in a 4-week trial examining the use and suitability of the sham app as a control condition. Criteria for determining suitability included (1) participants believe the sham app is an active intervention and (2) participants experience no clinical improvements in depression severity or quality of life after using the sham app. Self-reported depression severity and quality of life were captured before and after using the sham app. A user satisfaction survey and semi structured interviews were conducted at the end of the study. Quantitative analyses included paired two-tailed t-tests. The semi structured interviews were conducted with 20 of the 21 participants, and these interviews were analyzed using rapid qualitative analysis. Results: Overall, 21 participants (Mage=42.0 [SD=6.4], 9 [42.9%] female, and 12 [57.1%] male) were enrolled. Average number of app log ins was 17.8 (SD=10.6) with a range of 1 to 41. There were 2 participants who only logged in 1 time, and 15 (71.4%) participants completed the goal of logging in an average of 3 times per week. No significant differences were found in depression severity (p=.50) or quality of life (quality of life p=.42, physical health p=.58, psychological health p=.07, environmental health p=.44, social relationships p=.86) after using the sham app. Of the 20 participants who completed the semi-structured interview, 19 (95%) believed that they were using an active intervention. The user satisfaction survey revealed high overall satisfaction with the sham app with a score of 91%. Qualitative analyses revealed several recurring themes, including perceived value and impact, potential for behavior change, usage patterns and engagement, perspective and #usability, and perceptions of authenticity. Conclusions: Our sham app met our a priori criteria for suitability as a sham app. No clinical improvements from baseline were observed at end of the study period, and all but one participant believed that they were using an active intervention. Demonstrating that this sham app is suitable as a control condition elevates the rigor of randomized clinical trials and ensures the efficacy of prescription digital therapeutics.
