Usability, System, Sati, UserAbstract
Nowadays, technology companies develop mobile applications in order to satisfy various user needs. These mobile applications are designed based on certain study parameters such as usability. The usability of a mobile application refers to the extent to which the user satisfies his needs in a specific context. The usability of a mobile application is regulated by the efficiency, effectiveness and degree of user satisfaction as established by the ISO 9241-11 standard. In this study, we intend to measure the usability of the mobile application Pydroid 3 ® using the SUS method, where the study variable was the degree of user satisfaction, in this case the study population was homogeneous, they were university level students. According to the results obtained, a degree of satisfaction between 40 % and 50 % was obtained, these denote that the application presents complexity in use and requires technical support to improve usability. In conclusion, the mobile application presented an average usability considering the level of satisfaction obtained.
