This trial is testing a web app called WPAPP-K that encourages physical activity to help reduce depression symptoms in midlife Korean American women going through menopause. The app provides information, coaching, and support to help you stay active. Researchers want to see if increasing physical activity through the app genuinely helps improve how you feel emotionally.
Korean American women in midlife often experience depression related to menopause, cultural stress, and life changes. There's a need for culturally tailored programs that help this community manage depression through lifestyle changes like exercise.

If you join this study, you'll be randomly assigned to either use the WPAPP-K app or receive general health information from the CDC website. If you're in the app group, you'll visit the app at least twice a week for 12 months. The study lasts one full year, and you'll be asked to track your mood and activity during that time.
