12. Nancy’s Quick Demo

13. “Intro Slide” Our Team: “Pace Grads” Nancy Goodman Mary Tan Sharon Des Jarlais Coach: Dr. Jeanne Coppola

14. “Features of App, Client or User profile” The app we designed is for any senior who would like to use e mail, skype and have a way to receive and store photos but finds the existing methods too confusing Talking to seniors we found that while they really want to communicate with family members and get pictures; the changing and different interfaces involved are often too much to handle.

15. “Features of App” The app we are going to demonstrate allows seniors to send and receive e mail using typing or dictation; receive photos and store them; and call and receive calls on a skype-like system with a simpler interface.

16. Examples of Screenshots/Wire frame

20. “Summary” Benefits: Our app is better than available apps because the interface is the same for the main activities clients want; and it won’t change due to updates Summary: Our app will allow seniors to use e mail, video chat, and provide a way to receive and store photos in a plain english and simple to learn way Thank you for your time Questions?
