5. Conclusion
The current study adds important information to the body of knowledge
regarding participants' experience of guided self-help interventions,
distributed digitally, namely that the smartphone-based
treatment might be more accessible and present in users' everyday
lives. It is, however, important to highlight the limited genera lizability
of the results given that the data of this study are related to a single
smartphone application featuring one specific treatment. Considering
that smartphone-based treatment is still quite new as a format, the
need for further research on participant experience of these interventions
is considerable. Nevertheless, its availability, assimilation into
users' everyday lives and possible motivational qualities speak of its
potential as an effective treatment format.
