The present study aims to conduct a hybrid study that examines the effects of a smartphone application "ASHARE" on physical activity, depression and anxiety, and implementation outcomes among workers.
A three-month intervention program will be provided to workers who meet eligibility criteria. Participants will be solicited at each workplace, and a baseline survey will be conducted after enrollment. Half of the workplaces will be assigned to the intervention group, and the other half will be assigned to the control group as a treatment as usual, which will offer face-to-face intervention programs. A follow-up survey will be conducted after the interventions (3 months later). Acceptability, appropriateness, and feasibility of the intervention programs will also be measured by the workplace health promotion personnel.

Use of the smartphone application "ASHARE"
The participants who belong to workplaces assigned to the intervention group will be asked to install and use the smartphone application for 3 months. The application has the following functions. 1) prediction and monitoring of users' depressed mood for the next day, 2) notification of prediction results and advice for physical activity, and 3) reference of activity patterns among users.
A face-to-face physical activity promotion program as a treatment as usual
Workplaces assigned to the control group will receive a program that combines multiple methods to improve work environments for 3 months. The effectiveness of the program in promoting physical activity was confirmed in the previous study (Watanabe et al., 2018, Int J Behav Med). This program includes multiple environmental adjustment methods such as policy-making and declaration, notifications provided on intrawebsite/electronic bulletin board systems, Individual competition of physical activity within the worksite, and Psychological education to increase self-regulation for physical activity.
