Abstract
Wellbeing and prevention are a daily target for an increasing number of people. Food and exercise are the two most important elements contributing to personal wellbeing and disease prevention. This paper describes the participative design process for creating the interfaces of an app designed to help shape healthy behavior in adults with pathologies, highlighting the principles driving the design choices.
