Abstract: Recent studies indicate that people are not inclined to maintain a healthy lifestyle and exercising on a daily basis. Statistics also show that there is a rise in obesity in the younger generation. Taking advantage of the rise in the use of Android Devices, applications can be developed to motivate people and to promote exercises which lead to a healthy life. The proposed application develops a feeling of competitiveness between friends and family members by comparing their respective scores which have been calculated based on the amount of exercise. This propels users to exercise more and beat their own as well as others records. This application can be used by people to connect globally and set new fitness goals. Google Android has integrated various sensors which can be used to sense the activities performed by the user.
