Summary

This study tested a smartphone app called ANíMATE designed to help people with obesity better manage their weight and health. 36 adults with obesity used the app for 16 weeks alongside standard care, while a control group received standard care alone. The goal was to see if the app helped with weight loss and self-care habits.
