Elders do like Internet and those who have access to it really enjoy the possibility of searching for topics of their interest. However, not all seniors are proficient users of the Internet and may find it difficult to navigate the web. Bearing this in mind, researchers at Fraunhofer Portugal are re-designing web browsers, making them more simple and intuitive. In the scope of a Master thesis, it a mobile application for smartphones and tablets has been developed, consisting of a browser for older adults in accordance with the expectations and needs of the senior users. Older adults were called to test the new application and help researchers validate it.
