China Mhealth app market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 31.21% during the forecast period. MHealth app refers to health-related mobile applications and technology that manage patient experiences. For healthcare workers, these health mobile applications employ advanced data analytics and mobile technology to deliver the best treatment possible at a low cost from convenient places. Cloud-based solutions are gaining popularity because they store data online for convenient access and eliminate the necessity of local servers. Emerging mobile applications combine patient data with cloud-based geolocation data. Simple programs such as fitness trackers, diet, and calorie-counting are among the smartphone apps that help with improved and easier health management.

Increasing smartphone and internet penetration to augment the market size.

Growing mobile phone usage, robust growth in technologies such as 4G, and 5G, increasing patient care diagnostics, and improved device and internet facilities are all contributing to China’s mHealth App industry. According to estimates provided by the government organization China Internet Network Information Center, China reported 989 million internet users by the end of 2020. (CNNIC). That's up from 85.4 million in March, right after the worst of China's coronavirus outbreak, which prompted hundreds of millions of people to stay indoors. In 2018, the mobile broadband network coverage rate was 57 percent, up from 12 percent in 2002. According to data from the People's Republic of China's Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, there were 1.32 billion mobile phone users by the end of 2016, up 192 times from late 1996. Furthermore, the adoption rate of mobile phones has reached 96.2 percent.

The growing accessibility of the services drives the market growth.

The mobile health industry is aided by a low-cost healthcare system. Because of the simplicity of use and handling, as well as the increasing market size, the mobile health industry has seen considerable growth in acceptability. The surge in demand for patient-centred health care services has led to an increase in home-based therapies for geriatrics and others, as well as health monitoring for the handicapped.

Ping An Good Doctor, one of the world's biggest online healthcare platforms, located in China, according to the company's latest financial report, generated RMB 2.747 billion in sales in the first half of 2020. Ping An Good Doctor's online medical business, which increased by 106.8% and currently contributes RMB 695 million to the company's entire total revenue, fared well despite the economic slump and market downturn. Revenue and user traffic both increased, and the company's online medical service capabilities were strengthened.

Hesitance in adoption by elderly patients restrains the market growth.

Because of the crucial assistance, it gives to a fast-growing senior population and patients with chronic illnesses, the mobile health (mHealth) service is gaining popularity across China. However, if compared to other countries, China's mHealth industry is atypical in two key ways restraining the market growth: the monitoring service is a minority market, and potential customers (the elderly and patients with chronic illnesses) are uninterested in adopting this service.
