Development of a Personalized Health and Wellness App to Promote Balanced Lifestyle and Weight Management

Diets are often difficult to sustain, leading to inconsistent user adherence and suboptimal health outcomes. Users require a flexible, supportive solution to guide healthy eating, hydration, sleep, and exercise routines without restrictive dieting. The client aims to improve user retention, promote healthier lifestyles, and provide personalized, real-time guidance via mobile technology.
