Abstract

In the digital innovation landscape, the integration of sustainability and mobile app development emerges as a critical convergence, exemplifying the blend of technological advancements with environmental awareness. Guided by the PRISMA framework, this systematic review meticulously navigated a spectrum of academic sources to identify prevailing insights, emerging trends, and discernible gaps in the realm of green mobile app development. Employing methodological rigor, diverse databases were consulted, and salient studies were selected. Subsequent data extraction and analysis processes revealed the transformative potential of digitalization with an emphasis on Sustainable Development Goals. Notably, emerging paradigms such as the Green Internet of Things (G-IoT), 6G networks, and inclusive citizen science highlighted the expanded role of mobile apps as instrumental vectors in promoting environmentally conscious behaviors and sustainable strategies. Nonetheless, challenges abound, with developers navigating the terrain of balancing innovation with ethical and environmental obligations. In essence, the review accentuates the significance of interweaving sustainability in mobile app development, championing a vision for a future marked by technological responsibility and eco-centric innovation.
