Our HIPPA-compliant texting platform is linked to the Fitabase Interface. Real time activity data are transmitted from the participant's smartphone to Fitabase via cellular network. Participants will receive 3-5 texts/day in sync with their preferred schedule defined at enrollment and taking into account school schedules as relevant. These texts use personal, disease-specific, and provider information to deliver two types of messages customized to the current step count and sent in equal proportion. Messages are designed to facilitate self-awareness, reinforce step targets, and link physical activity with a reward or memorable cue.
