Background: Understanding where and how young black men who have sex with men YBMSM in the southern United States meet their sexual partners is germane to understanding the underlying factors contributing to the ongoing HIV transmission in this community.
Men who have sex with men MSM commonly use geosocial networking apps to meet sexual partners. However, there is a lack of literature exploring geosocial networking app use in this particular population.
Objective: Our aim was to examine the characteristics, preferences, and behaviors of a geographically diverse sample of geosocial networking app-using YBMSM in the southern United States. Multiple aspects of geosocial networking app use were assessed, including overall app use, age of participant at first app use, specific apps used, reasons for app use, photos presented on apps, logon times and duration, number of messages sent and received, and characteristics of and behaviors with partners met on apps.
Survey measures of app-met partner and sexual behavior characteristics assessed at midpoint Day 7 and completion visits Day 14 were compared using McNemar's test or Wilcoxon signed-rank test.

The mean age at the initiation of app use was The vast majority of participants reported meeting black partners for sex. Conclusions: Use of geosocial networking apps to meet sexual partners among our sample of YBMSM in the southern United States was common, with a diverse range of app use behaviors being reported.
