CommitFit App to Facilitate Health Behavior Change in Clinic Adolescents

The CommitFit mHealth app uses gamification techniques to motivate adolescents and caregivers to set and achieve health behavior goals (eat more fruits or vegetables, increase water intake, decrease sugary beverage intake, increase physical activity, or increase overnight sleep). Users are ranked on leaderboard based on their points and can team up with caregivers on a team leaderboard.
