The purpose of this article is to present an mHealth system based on the Transtheoretical Model of Behavior Change, on persuasive technologies and on mobile design heuristics for touch screen devices to promote healthy habits and obesity reduction. The research was descriptive and explanatory with applied nature and quantitative approach. Regarding technical procedures, a quasi-experimental research was characterized. A pilot study was conducted with a sample of 58 users, organized into two groups with different levels of intervention.
