As this is the first version of the app, assessing its feasibility and usability is crucial.

Objective

This study aims to verify the feasibility and usability of the Job Adjustment mobile app.

Methods

A longitudinal observational study was conducted on pregnant Japanese women who were allowed to use the app anytime from 12 to 34 weeks of gestation; they received reminder emails every 2 weeks encouraging app
