SafeSpace App for Sexual Health in Young Women

This study is testing an app called SafeSpace Sexual Health. It aims to help young women, especially Black and/or Latine youth, LGBTQ+ youth, and those in certain areas, reduce sexual risks and improve their sexual and reproductive health. You would use either the SafeSpace Sexual Health app or a general health app called SafeSpace General Health. Researchers will compare how often participants have unprotected sex to see if the sexual health app is effective. The study is looking for 1000 young women in the U.S. aged 14-18 who have daily access to an iPhone and are not pregnant or trying to become pregnant. The current status of the study is unclear.

Study design
This is a randomized controlled trial with two groups, aiming to enroll 1000 participants. You would be randomly assigned to use one of two apps.
