Cadence-Based Pedometer App With Financial Incentives to Enhance Moderate-to-Vigorous Physical Activity: Development and Single-Arm Feasibility Study

From these rationales, we developed a pedometer app that simply measures walking intensity by step cadence and time and provides financial incentives based on these measurements (we defined achievement of MPA based on cadence as at least 100 steps per minute). The concept of the novel app was to be a tool to increase MVPA more efficiently than conventional pedometers and to be more scalable to the masses. Our ultimate goal is to investigate the therapeutic effects of the app on lifestyle-related diseases.

A Smartwatch Step-Counting App for Older Adults: Development and Evaluation Study

Our step-counting Amulet app estimates the number of steps taken over the course of a day and displays the information on the Amulet screen, similar to the functionality of a pedometer or of other wearable devices (Figure 1). The app continuously estimates the number of steps for each 5-second window, updating the count viewed by the user.

The Association Between Logging Steps Using a Website, App, or Fitbit and Engaging With the 10,000 Steps Physical Activity Program: Observational Study

In general, the program encourages users to accumulate physical activity each day and monitor their daily physical activity levels (actively or passively) by recording their pedometer, activity tracker–counted steps and/or time spent in physical activity using a web-based step log. The web-based step log is available to users on both the 10,000 Steps website and a smartphone app. Activity and/or steps logged using the app are automatically synchronized with the user’s account on the website [18].

Promotion of Physical Activity in Older People Using mHealth and eHealth Technologies: Rapid Review of Reviews

Cooper et al [21] reviewed 9 RCTs that investigated the effect of accelerometer and pedometer use on physical activity in older adults, 8 of which were included in the meta-analysis. Most studies (n=6) were judged to be at high risk of bias, 2 were unclear, and 1 was considered to be at low risk of bias. Pooled results from 4 studies investigating the effect of accelerometers revealed small to moderate positive effects on physical activity (SMD 0.43, 95% CI 0.19 to 0.68).

Effect of an mHealth Intervention Using a Pedometer App With Full In-Person Counseling on Body Composition of Overweight Adults: Randomized Controlled Weight Loss Trial

This study sought to extend the findings of Glynn et al [20] by examining the feasibility of this approach of using the Accupedo-Pro pedometer app (Corusen LLC) intervention to promote PA in an overweight adult sample.

A Pedometer-Guided Physical Activity Intervention for Obese Pregnant Women (the Fit MUM Study): Randomized Feasibility Study

Having previously demonstrated the acceptability and utility of the Fitbit Zip pedometer as a remote activity monitoring device in a pilot study [19], we conducted a feasibility randomized controlled trial of a pedometer-based intervention in a cohort of pregnant women with obesity. In particular, we aimed to evaluate the feasibility of self-monitoring of activity levels via the Fitbit Zip pedometer and the additional role of a behavioral intervention in reducing the incidence of excessive GWG.
