Knee pain is one of the most prevalent musculoskeletal disorders in the United States. Conservative treatments generally consist of pharmacological agents and physical therapy. Unfortunately, such conservative care is often mismanaged, and little data is collected on clinical outcomes. The proposed investigation utilizes a novel and state-of-the-art mobile application (DETP) to guide an at-home exercise therapy program for non-operative knee pain. The purpose of this study is conducting a single-blind randomized, controlled, superiority study to compare the DETP to conventional physical therapy (PT). The investigators will seek to determine improvement in pain and function in PROMIS measures as the primary outcome. The investigators will also evaluate satisfaction with the application as a secondary outcome.
