<h1>Features of a Smart Phone App to Promote Physical Activity</h1>
<p>
Increasing physical activity and reducing sedentary time is important for overall health and
wellness. However, many individuals are not active enough to meet recommended guidelines
for health benefits. The purpose of this study is to determine which features of a smartphone
application (app, called RECESS) are effective in improving daily physical activity and reducing
sedentary (sitting, lying) time. Participation in this study will involve downloading RECESS. You
will then provide some information about yourself (e.g. age, occupation, physical activity level).
The app will then download 1 week of your prior activity data (from Apple Health or Google
Health) to provide information about your current activity. You will then use the RECESS app for
three weeks. The features of RECESS will vary week to week so that we can investigate which
features are more effective in promoting activity. The features may include goal setting and
giving and receiving coaching from a buddy with similar activity levels and/or goals. While the
app monitors you physical activity and sedentary behaviour, you are not required to change
your behaviour but we hope that the feedback may help you meet physical activity targets. No
intense activity is recommended, simply being active more often through light activity over the
course of the day.
</p>
<p>
We are looking for individuals between the ages of 18-99 to participate. Your participation is
voluntary. You can withdraw from the study at any time by deleting RECESS from your smart
phone. By indicating yes at the end of this information letter, you indicate your consent to
participate in this study.
</p>
<p>
There are no known or anticipated risks to participating in this study. It is important for you to
know that any information that you provide and share will be anonymous and confidential.
RECESS is programmed to collect responses and data by study ID. It will not collect any
information that could potentially identify you (such as name or phone identifiers). The
RECESS app will collect the available amount of steps and distance walked prior to one week of
the app installation until the app is removed or the recess service disabled. In addition, usage
behaviour of the app itself like open and close times, duration of usage and interaction with user
interface elements is recorded. Every user input through the built-in messaging system is stored
with a corresponding time value. The app will not be accessing any potentially sensitive
information on the phone (e.g. email, web browsing data, photos), the only data accessed
outside of the RECESS app is the activity data from Apple Health (iOS) or Google Health
(Android).
</p>
<p>
The data collected through RECESS will be transmitted and stored in Firebase, which is a cloud
service provided by Google. When information is transmitted over the internet (such as through
Firebase), privacy cannot be guaranteed. There is always a risk your data may be intercepted
by a third party (e.g., government agencies, hackers). The data will be electronically archived
after completion of the study and maintained on an password protected, encrypted computer at
the University of Waterloo for seven years and then erased.
</p>
