Entering the puerperium, the mother will experience changes both physically and psychologically. This period is still a vulnerable period for the survival of the mother. Beside, maternal needs during the puerperium will also be different in each woman and also in each period of the puerperium. The implementation of Mobile Health Information Technology (mHealth) in improving health services for postpartum mothers is one alternative solution that can help in providing information and health education for postpartum mothers. For this reason, a health promotion media is designed in the form of applications according to the needs and contains information about childbirth care and newborn care without being limited by space, time, without having to face to face with health workers, especially midwives as milestones in service delivery. The system development method used is Extreme Programming (XP) which consists of planning, design, coding, test. This research has successfully developed an Android-based application design for postpartum care and a newborn care that can facilitate postpartum care in obtaining information about postnatal care and newborn so that the information obtained is easier and more effective.
