MSM with more social contacts, recreational drug use, and prior HIV self-test experience (reported via mobile phone geo-social apps) were more likely to have higher offline HIV testing frequency.What are the implications for public health practice?A gay-oriented app provides opportunities for online interventions to promote HIV testing services.
