Summary
This study tests a smartphone app called RemoteEx+ that provides exercise videos, motivation, and dementia risk education to help sedentary adults aged 40-85 in rural Kansas and Nebraska become more active. Researchers will measure whether participants stick with the program and see improvements in blood pressure, mobility, and quality of life. The goal is to reduce dementia risk and health disparities in rural communities.
