Summary

This study developed and tested a mobile app with coaching and a social network for adults with anorexia nervosa who recently left intensive treatment. The goal was to see if the app could help reduce eating disorder symptoms compared to usual care. 90 women participated, and the app was designed to support them during the challenging post-acute period.
