Study Summary

The goal of this study is to explore the effects of FeatForward on physical activity and cardio-metabolic risk factors. The study will be implemented as a 2-arm randomized controlled trial (RCT) comparing the effects of FeatForward in patients assigned to use the application versus a control group who will not use the app over a 6-month follow-up period. The investigators hypothesize that subjects using FeatForward will be more physically active and will achieve greater improvements in their cardio-metabolic risk (CMR) factors than a usual care control group that will not use the app over a 6-month period.
