Inspiration

I always try to help seniors citizens to make their life easy and reliable in some ways. For that reason I use [Never too old] Name for my project that indicates, No one is old in their own thinking and similarly I made an app enables the elderly to browse their smartphones and perform simple tasks such as turning on the WiFi, saving a contact, making a video call, etc.

What it does

In this fast-paced world, we have forgotten that a very significant part of our society can’t keep up with the fast-moving technology. With numerous icons and buttons on a smartphone, it can become very overwhelming for the elderly. They can’t always seem to remember what to press and when. So the app enables the elderly to browse their smartphones and perform simple tasks such as turning on the WiFi, saving a contact, making a video call, etc which might seem easy to us but can prove to be quite a task for the elders.

Challenges I ran into

Working with packages was one of the biggest hurdles we faced because the packages used in our app are not the most commonly used ones. Using packages like contact picker, airplane mode checker, permission handler proved to be quite a task in the beginning. However, we managed to learn patiently and get the best out of them.

What I learned

I learned how to work quickly with Dart. I also learned how to use packages like contact picker, airplane mode checker in a effective way. It was my first time using Swift and I had a lot of fun and learnings while using it.

What's next for Never Too Old

I would like to release web app, since it will clearly describe all the things on web page like what the app does, how to use it, where to download it and all these stuffs and at last I will give some customer support information So, if any one ran into any type of problem he/she can contact immediately. I want to implement full functionality, improve my UI/UX design, and add more nature categories as well.
