Accepts healthy volunteers: yes
Allocation: RANDOMIZED
Intervention model: PARALLEL
Primary purpose: PREVENTION

Brief summary: Physical inactivity is still a major public health problem. Active transportation i.e. walking or cycling for transport can contribute to greater total physical activity. The specific aim of this study is to evaluate if a 12-week mobile phone application can increase time spent in active transportation (cycling or walking) and in moderate-to-vigorous physical activity in Swedish adults aged 20-65 years.


Eligibility criteria: Inclusion Criteria:

* 20-65 years of age
* living in Stockholm or its suburbs
* being able to understand Swedish sufficiently well in order to understand the purpose of the study and the content of the intervention

Exclusion Criteria:

* having a disease prohibiting them from participation in moderate physical activity such as walking or cycling

Primary outcomes:
measure: Total activity and moderate-to-vigorous physical activity
timeFrame: At the end of the intervention which is 12 weeks after baseline
Secondary outcomes:
measure: Walkability
timeFrame: At the end of the intervention which is 12 weeks after baseline
