Abstract

Objective: to describe the process to elaborate and validate an app for mobile devices as an educational technology about breastfeeding. Method: a methodological study carried out in June 2020 in five stages (literature review; content organization; elaboration of the app; validation of the app; adequacy of the educational technology). In the validation by 20 specialists, via Google Forms, the Content Validity Index was used, with a minimum value of 0.8. Results: the overall Content Validity Index was 0.96, varying between 0.1 and 1.0 among the evaluative items about content, appearance and usability. Improvements were suggested, being included for the final version of the educational technology. Conclusion: the app called “Descomplicando a Amamentação” (“Decomplicating breastfeeding”) was assessed satisfactorily by specialists and can be used with the families in the health education process.
