Research project
Easierphone
The Easierphone app is designed to make it easier for older people to use their smartphones through simplified functions and navigation. The app can be used both individually by an older person and in tandem with the support of a carer (via remote access to the app).
Within the framework of this project, the app will be tested in direct collaboration with various groups of end users (older people, carers) in the IAF's LivingLab 65+ and further developed and improved in several development loops for the Android operating system on the basis of this feedback.
