The study will contain of two sessions and be conducted on the 4th floor of the Mona Campbell building, Dalhousie University, and each session will take around 30 minutes. In the first session, you will meet with a researcher to go over an introduction section of the study, ask you to sign a consent form to participate in the study and, you will ask to fill a questionnaire. Then, a researcher will download the app on your device, so you must bring your own phone (android), and show you how to use the application. You need to use the app for four weeks. Second session, after four weeks, you will meet a researcher again for the final interview, that will be audio recorded, and show you how to uninstall the app. Compensation is $50 (gift card) for completion of the study.
