Abstract
In an era characterized by rapid technological advancements and shifting demographics, the issue of elderly care has emerged as a critical concern globally. With aging populations on the rise, ensuring the well-being and independence of elderly individuals has become a paramount goal for societies worldwide. Many elderly individuals encounter challenges in performing daily tasks independently, such as grocery shopping, transportation, medical appointments, and companionship. Factors like mobility limitations, social isolation, and lack of immediate support networks further compound these challenges, impacting the quality of life for elderly individuals. In response to these pressing needs, this research introduces Joyful aging, a mobile application designed to provide accessible assistance and support to elderly individuals. The app aims to bridge the gap between elderly individuals in need of assistance and reliable helpers who can offer support with various daily tasks. By harnessing the power of technology, Joyful aging seeks to empower elderly individuals to maintain their independence, enhance their quality of life, and remain actively engaged in their communities. Developed with a user-centric approach, the app prioritizes usability, accessibility, and safety to ensure a seamless and enriching experience for both elderly users and helpers. By facilitating real-time connections between users and helpers, Joyful aging offers a convenient and reliable solution to address the diverse needs of elderly individuals, from basic errands to social interactions. This research paper provides a comprehensive overview of Joyful aging, including its development process, key features and functionalities, usability considerations, user testing and feedback, potential impact, challenges, and future directions. By examining the development and implementation of Joyful aging, this research contributes to the growing body of literature on technology-based solutions for elderly care, highlighting the transformative potential of mobile applications in enhancing the well-being of elderly individuals.
