摘要

Digital services are playing an increasingly important role in healthcare in Germany. This is reflected in the law to accelerate the digitalisation of the healthcare system, with the introduction of digital health applications (DiGA) and in the current S3 guideline on psycho-oncology. While DiGA in the area of “psyche” account for approx. 41% (as of 28 February 2025) of all current DiGA, the proportion of cancer-specific applications is significantly lower (4%). Certification as a DiGA requires proof of a positive treatment effect within one year. If you search for digital, mobile offers other than DiGA, you will find a diverse, unclear range of offers. General search terms such as “cancer” sometimes lead to unsuitable suggestions in the app stores. How to categorise the apps is a challenge for both practitioners and patients. Different research groups, health insurance companies, associations or organisations have their own rating system for apps—there is no standardisation. Criteria such as data storage, financing, type of provider, aesthetics, quality of information or target information can be part of these evaluation recommendations in different formulations. In order to facilitate guideline-based care and reduce barriers with regard to the prescription and use of apps, this article lists some problem areas and previous attempts at solutions in the use of (psycho-)oncological apps and presents excerpts of apps based on a self-created overview.
