Thus, neglect of this responsibility invites a critique of our way of life which is itself sick. The reasons for and results from HIV and AIDS cannot be ignored. One important step to anticipate and overcome the HIV infection and AIDS sickness is to form an underlying positive attitude and establish a culture of healthy living, which supports a healthy lifestyle, is responsible, and sustains the value of life and healthy living.

BACKGROUND The incidence of chronic diseases such as type 2 diabetes is on the rise in countries worldwide, including Singapore. Health professional-delivered healthy lifestyle interventions have been shown to prevent type 2 diabetes. Yet ongoing personalised guidance from health professionals is not feasible or affordable at the population level. Novel digital interventions delivered using mobile technology such as conversational agents are a potential alternative for delivery of healthy lifestyle change behavioural interventions to the public. OBJECTIVE We explored Singaporeans’ perceptions on and experience of healthy living, diabetes and mobile health interventions (apps and conversational agents). This survey was done to help inform the design and development of a conversational agent focusing on healthy lifestyle change. METHODS This qualitative study was conducted over Aug and Sept 2019. 20 participants were recruited from relevant healthy living Facebook pages and groups. Semi-structured interviews were conducted in person or over the telephone using an interview guide. Interviews were transcribed and analysed in parallel by two researchers using Burnard’s method, a structured approach for thematic content analysis. RESULTS The collected data was organised into four main themes: (1) use of conversational agents, (2) ubiquity of smartphone applications, (3) understanding of diabetes and (4) barriers and facilitators to a healthy living in Singapore. Most participants used health-related mobile applications as well as conversational agents unrelated to healthcare. They provided diverse suggestions for future conversational agent-delivered interventions. Participants also highlighted several knowledge gaps in relation to diabetes and healthy living. In terms of barriers to healthy living, frequent dining out, high stress levels, lack of work-life balance and dearth of free time to engage in physical activity were mentioned. In contrast, discipline, pre-planning and sticking to a routine were important for enabling a healthy lifestyle. CONCLUSIONS Participants in our study commonly used mobile health interventions and provided important insights into their knowledge gaps and needs in relation to healthy lifestyle behaviour change. Future digital interventions like conversational agents focusing on healthy lifestyle and diabetes prevention should aim to address the barriers highlighted in our study and motivate individuals to adopt habits for healthy living.
