ABSTRACT
This study examines gamified smartphone app interventions for improving lifestyle choices and cardiometabolic health in adults at risk for cardiovascular disease. A systematic review of six databases compared gamified interventions with conventional methods. Despite a functionality rating of 4.07, user engagement was lacking. Findings suggest that incorporating game elements into health apps can promote lifestyle changes and improve cardiometabolic health, guiding future digital health strategies to reduce cardiovascular disease risk.
