Abstract: Heart disease has been ranked as the first cause for death in Pakistan along with being the leading cause of death worldwide (https://www.cdc.gov). Recovering heart patients need to monitor their diet and activity routines to mitigate chances of another occurrence (https://www.heart.org). The proposed application aims to provide a platform that would help patients to keep track of their activity, alongside allowing the patients to keep track of their diet; which will act as fitness monitoring for cardiac rehabilitation patients. Further more, activity classification algorithm used only seven features to shows classification into five different classes with accuracy of 98% in real time. Also, meal tracking module is designed to support the cardiac patients with timely feedback and notifications about their dietary routine.
