Abstract
Breast cancer patients showed low engagement in physical activity (PA) during chemotherapy. Evidence showed regular PA has potential to reduce mortality and risks of cancer recurrence, relieve psychological distress, manage symptoms and improve quality of life. Mobile health intervention displays a great advantage to deliver cancer care timely and remotely. A Mobile Physical Activity Program was constructed in a mobile phone application. The application contained 5 modes: information delivering, disease tracking, events reminders, online interaction, health behavior recording (daily walking steps, sleeping time and body weight) and self-reported assessment. Both applications and web-based administration portal were developed by engineers.
