Core Tip This article explores the integration of smart healthcare technologies, such as wearable devices, telemedicine, and electronic health records, into psychiatric and substance use disorders. It highlights innovative approaches, such as ecological momentary assessments and smartphone-based monitoring that enable personalized and proactive care. We discuss challenges, including data complexity, usability, and ethical concerns, and provide recommendations - such as user-friendly designs with gamification, privacy safeguards, adaptive interfaces for mobility issues, and scalable stepped-care models - to enhance engagement. The need for certification, clinician support tools, and two-way patient communication is also addressed, optimizing smart healthcare for better outcomes in mental health and substance use disorder treatment.
