ABSTRACT Objective: To develop and validate a prototype mobile application on breastfeeding for health professionals. Method: Methodological study. To build this prototype, information obtained from interviews with six health professionals who were certified as international breastfeeding consultants was employed. For validating the prototype, screenshots were sent to each professional participating in the first phase, as well as an adapted instrument to assess appearance, content, and language. Results: Most assessments were “great” or “good”. The participating professionals have also made important considerations for content enhancement, mainly for the clinical content. Conclusion: The prototype was positively assessed by the professionals, fulfilling the proposed objective. This study is highly important for breastfeeding care professional practice, since it presents a tool which improves quality of care by contributing to the best evidence-based practice.
