Abstract
This meta-analysis demonstrates that mobile phone app interventions significantly reduce weight, BMI, WC, fat mass, DBP, and HbA1c in adults with overweight and obesity. However, future studies should explore ways to optimize app interventions by incorporating behavior change strategies and resources to further enhance their overall effectiveness.
