Mobile Wellness App and Fitness Tracker for Weight Management

This study is looking at how well a mobile wellness app, with or without a wearable fitness tracker, helps adults manage their weight and improve their health. You could be eligible if you are 18 or older, have a BMI (Body Mass Index, a measure of body fat based on height and weight) of 25 or higher, own a smartphone, and are not very active. The study will compare three groups: one using the app and a fitness tracker, one using only the app, and a control group receiving standard health information. The main goal is to see how much weight changes over 3 months. This study is currently recruiting about 300 participants.

Study design
This is a randomized controlled trial with 300 planned participants. You would be randomly assigned to one of three groups.
What's involved
You would use the assigned intervention (app, app + tracker, or standard information) daily for 12 weeks. You will complete surveys and provide weight measurements.
Compensation
Not stated in the trial record.
Follow-up
Your weight change will be measured at 3 months.
