Abstract
:

Apps purporting to assist with the management of eating disorders are proliferating; although less is known about (a) the safety or efficacy of the apps on the marketplaces and (b) if the research evidence supports dissemination of these apps. In this research forum, we seek to synthesize the current data and provide practical considerations around the use and research of these apps.
