Abstract
In this research we have seen that in Peru there is a large number of overweight people in a range that exceeds at least 30% depending on the age range, between 20 and 29 years there is 30.40% overweight, between 30 and 39 years there is 43.70% overweight, between 40 and 49 years there is 46.80% overweight, Between 50 and 59 years old there is a 43.30% of overweight and from 60 years old onwards there is a 38.50% of overweight, that is why we have proposed a prototype of a mobile application, whose main function is to help through the interaction of chatbots technology to have better control over their feeding and physical The development of the application will be done with an agile methodology, using the Scrum framework and the Balsamiq Mockup tool that will help us to design the prototypes of each module of the application. In the case of the study the requirements were made, and the planning of each sprint to carry out the application in a determined time. As a result, the design of the application is shown with modules to register users, register their weight and height to calculate their Body Mass Index (BMI), a section to interact in a chat to make any consultation, and finally a list of recipes with healthy dishes. This application will be very useful for all people who want to improve their health since it is not only for aesthetics, but also to prevent fatal diseases at an early age.
