Data collection instruments used the GPAQquestionnaire, digital scales, measuring tape and FatSecret application. The normality test used the Kolmogorov-sminorf test. Dataanalysis techniques using SPSS.25 to determine the effect of FatSecret application on increasing physical activity and weight lossusing t-test.The results showed that (1) from the t test analysis, the t value was obtained (-12.231) > t table (2.068), with these results it wasconcluded that there was an effect of applying the FatSecret application on weight loss. (2) the results of the t test analysis onphysical activity obtained the value of t count (2.643) > t table (2.068), from these results it can be concluded that there is aneffect of applying the FatSecret application on increasing physical activity.
