The main questions it aims to answer are: Are children with autism motivated to engage in daily exercise by seeing themselves in a mobile application? Researchers will compare instructions with the children themselves with instructions containing other children and children in rabbit suits. Parents and their children will use the mobile application once daily for 8 weeks, and 5-10 minutes per day. Parents will fill out questionnaires before, during and after the 8-week intervention, and write about their experiences in the mobile application 2-3 days per week.
