Abstract

This study assesses how effective gamification in smartphone apps is at enhancing lifestyle and cardiometabolic health in adults at risk of cardiovascular disease. Using a systematic review of six databases, it looked at trials that compared gamified and traditional interventions. Although apps scored highly for functionality, averaging a 4.07 rating, they lacked focus on user engagement. The study reveals that gamification can aid in achievable lifestyle changes and improve cardiometabolic factors, providing insights for future digital health approaches targeting CVD risk reduction.
