Comprehension

For a typical elderly person in Indian family compatibility with the constantly changing world around them is the biggest issue.

The elderly feel their social life is diminishing faster than their age because they don’t find the new technologies to be easily accessible- the smaller buttons and icons, too many tools, options, and functions to handle, complex UI makes it harder to use. Since the whole world that they are a part of cannot change according to them, why not create a small world of their own.

Didn’t our grandparents love talking to us on landline phone calls which had large buttons to press and call, where they just had to pick it up to talk, just the right accessibility level for them? We must make socializing simple for them by observing from their standards, finding what they are comfortable doing, and what they struggle with.

Now that we understand the cause and its context, we know that they’ll still prefer watching television over YouTube or any other streaming platform because it is not compatible enough for them, though we can set these Apps and software up for them, but doing so makes them so dependent and further helpless at many instances. And a lot of old age people live alone as their children have settled abroad or in other big cities, so they don't even have their grandchildren to teach them new complex features in apps.

This is the story of almost every household so why can’t we make a community for them, a small world where everyone relates to the other’s situation and can learn, teach and share thoughts with each other. Therefore, we aim to provide a much more accessible, as simple as using a telephone ( means, focusing more on visual and sound interactions rather than text and touch) app. With that, we can empower them enough to socialize within themselves and also lessen the generation gap with respect to the communication and social front.
