Quick access to survey information and statistics from the USAID-funded Demographic and Health Surveys. The DHS Program has carried out more than 300 surveys in 90+ countries. The surveys collect information on fertility and family planning, maternal and child health, child mortality, nutrition, malaria, HIV/AIDS, and many other health topics. The DHS Program application provides indicator tables, charts, maps, and trend data from the Demographic and Health Surveys, as well as survey information, and quick links to survey-related publications. The DHS Program application was formerly named MEASURE DHS Mobile.

So useful!

What a great tool for anyone who wants to know what data Actually show! I'm a graduate student and love using this app to fact check my professor when they make a bogus claim about TFR trends in a particular country (quick stats), learn more about the global distribution of electricity (maps), or which countries have high infant mortality rates (indicators). Very well-designed and easy to use. My only request would be the ability to see more time points per indicator in quick stats without scrolling. Perhaps the width of columns could shrink when you turn the phone on its side? Overall, a great app.

I wish this mobile app had been around while I was in graduate school...life would've been so much easier! This is a great & easy to use app that allows users to view the top 25 health indicators for developing countries. Users can then compare indicators across countries. Don't like bar charts, then view the global map of indicators.Great resource for class discussions, papers, and presentations!

This is a great tool for quick stats and survey progress. The app has a small footprint but a vast wealth of data, even when offline. Every public health professional should have this app.
