Abstract
Wearable devices are trying to conquer the market and to enter the users' daily life. However, wearables show their limits when creating long-term engagement, which is crucial for helping the users to build healthy lifestyles that can accompany them during their lives. The main goal of this workshop is to bring together researchers and practitioners that can contribute with their expertise in creating common guidelines for the design of wearable devices.
