Pulse

The intervention provides participants access to Pulse, a web-based mobile health app designed for Black and Latinx women ages 18-20. Participants can access the app autonomously and on their own schedule. The app for the experimental arm, the Pulse treatment app, provides information on birth control, healthy relationships, sexual health and physiology, pregnancy, and utilization of clinical services. The app for the comparator arm, the Pulse control app, provides information on general health topics, such as the importance of sleep, healthy eating, and friendships. Participants receive MMS messages that reinforce app content and remind them to visit the app.
