Novel mHealth Physical Activity Intervention for Youth With Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus

Description

The goal of this longitudinal cohort study is to learn about a mHealth intervention in Type 1 Diabetes (T1D) The main question\[s\] it aims to answer are: * Does the intervention increase the amount of text messages between the mHealth software and participants? * Do the text messages from the Nudge software increase moderate to vigorous physical activity (MVPA) in participants? * Does the MVPA encouraged by the Nudge software improve the HbA1c levels of participants? Participants will: * Receive text messages from the Nudge software * Report physical activity goals via the text messages to the Nudge software * Wear both an accelerometer and an actigraph for three weeks (spread out across the beginning, 30 days, and 90 days of participation) * Complete surveys at the beginning of participation * Complete daily surveys while wearing the devices * Complete surveys at the end of participation * Record physical activity in study surveys
